One of the things I liked about Cryolysis was when you clicked the actual sphere itself, you'd eat and drink at the same time. Is any function like this going to be included? Even without it, this mod is shaping up to be a far lot better than the others ^_^
Thanks.

There will assignment of actions to the main sphere, much like the button assignments now (drag stuff onto it and select the mouse button to assign it to) ... but the menu showing will be locked to the right mouse button when it happens. Although, I might make it ALT-anybutton for the menu, just like the button menus, that way you can have THREE actions on the sphere as well. As for eating and drinking at the same time, I could add that feature later on when I add the more robust button action support in Stage 4. We'll see ... Either way, thanks for the suggestion! I marked it down

Please do add this it is possibly the single best feature of arcanum being able to right click the sphere to eat and drink and left click to use evocation and something i wanted to suggest myself. Also with the way ur menu system works i don't know if it's possible but can write it down ( ) to look into the menu button holding the last action used in that menu and actually being a functional button... so for instance arcanum was right click to open menu and left click to use the last function used in that menu...not quite the same as having a static click like u have atm.

I don't really miss the menu button changing from last used like arcanum. This method is much better. I do however agree w/ the above tow posters and miss the center sphere click for eating and drinking.
This is a grate release. No bugs so far. Keep up the great work.

As long as the main sphere has the drag and drop like the rest of the buttons, all you have to do is make a macro for eating and drinking
/use conjured glacier water /use conjured croissaint
thats all you need, in 1 macro too.

Hopefully, you won't need to resort to using a pre-made macro when I add the support. Since you can't exactly drink and eat while in combat, I'll be able to do what you want while out of combat quite easily. ;D

Ah yes, that's the only thing I'm missing from Arcanum, evocation and eat/drink on the center sphere, that would make my day

Lunar Sphere is a great addon. Which I miss from Arcanum is - design (like Serenity from Cycircled), - reagent count on spells which use them (slowfall, portals, buffs), but it should be in later stages, I expect - and the managem button, which I don't know if future stages will be included, because it's a very special multi-purpose addon: -- right click conjures gems in defined order (best to worst or other way around) -- left click uses gems in defined order -- the count of gems is shown at the button, or the cooldown, if the gems are on CD

Please specify what about the design you are missing. Lunar Sphere has a lot of skins and colors to pick from. Also there is still a lot more to come which you will see byt he end of stage 4.
Reagent count will all be implimented by the end of 8 at the latest, if not sooner.
As for mana gems, right now you can make a button using the "Use Strongest Mana Potion" predefined button. What this will do is put different values for what is stronger and weaker. For example mana emerald is stronger then mana agate, which is stronger then cenarian slave pot, which is stronger then super mana potion. So basically it will have you use all your mana gems in order and then goto your mana pots. Now in a future patch for added functionality Moongaze is planning to seperate the mana gem/pot and healthstone/health pot buttons because they are on different cooldowns.
I like the idea of right click conjur's the gems. I do not recall this ever being suggested. The predifined order I think is a little much to add in, but it could work that it conjur's them in the order that you use them, which will either be weakest to strongest or vise versa.
I do not think the predifined order will ever be implimented for mana gems. You will just be able to pick best to worst or vise versa. I myself have 5 buttons for my mana gems. Left click is use, right click is conjur. This is because being in a high end raiding guild mana is extremely importent so I use all 5 mana gems every boss fight and the order changes every time depending on what my mana pool is at when the cooldown is up. The healthstone button I will be using though.
I think the gem cooldowns ate already implimented and if they are not, they will be. As for the gem count, I do not know how hard this would be ti implement, but i'm sure it would be easier once Moongaze makes a button soley for mana gems.

In case you missed it Moon, that was all just answering mpegmail's post except for the right click congure mana (when the button is soley mana gems). I think it's a really good idea and would be easy to impliment. BTW, I got tired of logging in all the time so i just logged in forever. So most the time it says im here when i'm actually not.

actually Exuro all that does is keep you from having to log in each time. I am here quite frequently and only see you when you are actually here. As of this post your status is offline ELe

Thanks for the suggestions I think the design aspect was aimmed at the pre-set design of Cryolysis and the other sphere addons. If that's the case, the template code will be implimented at the end of the beta and will let you choose a pre-made sphere setup for your mage, or priest, or whatever else you can cook up (like a gnome, they taste good with salsa ;D) I'm looking into all of your suggestions (most of which are planned, but others have been noted) Thanks for replying, Exuro It helped a lot.

by design, I mean this (cycircled serenity on other buttons), and I've chosen the most fitting design in lunar: lunar arcanum

Oooooh ... I see. you want the gradient looking button (light gray top-left, darker gray bottom right) with a black border. I can add that, no biggie. It was actually a part of one of my original button designs, but I chose not to include it *shrug* I'll add that skin in the very near future ;D

would be nice. also customable distance (radius) of buttons from the sphere would be nice (but it could be written in your plan, I don't remeber)
