Hello Dev's, Mod's and the Community,

i know there is a (very outdated) "Suggestion list" by Marcuss2 with some requests, that i will list beneath, but i play Kenshi since a while and i want to build my own list with my own wishes for Kenshi. I will add some more Ideas if i get some or if i see a idea that i like (it will be linked here).

PS: I've read the "The topic reguarding feature topic names" Topic... and i hope it's okay that i didn't named this thread as "Dummy Training, Human Training, Escape to Main-Menu, blabla"- Thing. If a Mod wishes that i create for every idea a single Thread i will do it.

Please excuse my English, it is not my national language.

Miscellaneous
Gameplay
  • Dummy training - make me stronger! - If i train all day with my sword at a dummy, it should make me stronger too
  • Human training - To increase defensive too, your Members should train together. Maybe you should first research some training-weapons - or a special training-area (building) ... i mean, training together with sharp weapons can be deadly. And to make dummys not useless. ^^
  • Transfer complete Stack - It's awful to klick dozens of times in the inventory if i want to sell dozens of bread. How about "Shift - Right Klick" to transfer the complete Stack? - I mean, Shift + Drag already works. ^^
  • Digging for flat Ground - This would be great! I (and a lot of others) love the plains in the west.. why not digging out your own flat area near the cannibals? :D - Is this possible with the Engine?

Building - Features
  • Dismantle - Recover some mat's - This would be very nice... if some building is buggy, you want to replace a "un-upgradeable" building with a newer version, or you want to "relocate" your Outpost to another place, this would be really usefull
  • Grid placement - It would be nice to activate a (maybe scalable) grid to place things accurate
  • Alternative placement - straight mode - Actually the objects adjust themselves on the terrain - if you place a house or a gate at a dune, it's sloped. To activate the straight-mode we can press a hotkey like "Ctrl" while building. This should also be available for walls
  • Alternative walling - build as one piece, not as 1000 tiles... - If it's possible, it would be nice if we can build "rounded" walls (don't know how to explain it better, maybe someone can tell me how to explain it better :D )
  • Reworked Houses - they are not accurate :o - I always wondered why it looks so sloped, when i tried to build accurate in a house ... it's because they are not accurate (i'm right, right? it's not only my imagination?)
  • ... -
Building - Objects

I know, some of the following objects are already in-game and it's possible to place them via Shift + F12, but it would be really nice to build them without "cheating" ;-)
  • Buildable furnitures - Chairs, Tables and so on ... to build up your own Bar etc.
  • Towers - With lockable door, as "End-Point" for walls or for single placing, placeable turret
  • End-Point for walls - It looks shitty if you make a "hard-ending" wall - maybe add some "end-point"-object
  • ... -

Your in luck. Butta updated his Dummies+ mod not long ago and it lets you do exactly that.

Yes, most all of these have already been requested, though you did say you just want a list for yourself.

As for the Digging for flat ground, that will not be possible with this game. It has been requested though to have the availability of a "foundation" building, that would just be a flat level slab that you could build ontop of.

Yeah, i know this Mod, but this is not what i mean. IMHO the Training Dummies should train Weapon, Meele-Attack and Strength at the same time - it's realistic. I mean... if i train with a punching-bag day in day out, i also will become stronger.

I also want to avoid mods in my game - as far as it's not final - for stability and compatibility (for upcoming patches).

I checked some threads before, to assure that this isn't only a list of known requests. Some requests are the same category but not the same implementation-idea. (e.g. Single-Placing for Walls - not the same Idea as mine - but good as well ^^)

Aw... crap :/ But i thought that. The Foundation-Idea is not bad and i already read about it - but this must come (in my opinion) with the "Straight Building Mode". On my side, there are some balancing-doubts with this foundations too, thats why i think about digging.

Indeed.. I'm a bit too aesthetic sensitive, and the non-level buildings bothers me to OCD levels... I used to pretty much only build in one spot, and that was the flat level area near cannibals, but i recently found the plateaus next to catun being an excellent and amazing place to build. It's looking mighty beautiful, except the crooked walls around the plateaus that are on uneven ground.. I would love for there to be a snap-to-level toggle or option, or something that helps place buildings flat...

Holy shit guys. Why didn't I think of that myself? Actually it is possible to train strength and melee attack at the same time! Totally gonna include this in the future, thanks :P

As for weapon training: As far as I can see, there's no function for it yet.

Damn I didn't even remember my suggestion :lol: although it shocks me that it still has not been implemented, even if it's a minor thing.
