Summary0004402: Warning/Dialog Pop-up For Entering Water
DescriptionI think a simple pop-up that forces you to acknowledge that the second time you visit a water tile in a row you will be dumped into the middle of the ocean. I wasn't aware of this until it was too late, because the first time I did it gave me the impression that the second time I'd go into a water tile that I'd also just end up on the edge. I was wrong and I almost died for the first time because of that.

A warning that the users must click to acknowledge that they could drown would be incredibly helpful, as I think quite a few people might be caught off guard like I was.

Death isn't nearly as bad in this game as in "normal" games though. You still keep your items, and all your XP (I think). All that happens is that you restart with a new character, with different stats. Right-clicking ocean tiles will also tell you that you'll be dumped in the middle, so personally, I'm fine with it being this way.

Hehe. I wouldn't know because I haven't died yet, and I'm at level 7 (almost level 8). But I nearly died because I nearly drowned, of all things!!! That would be much more disheartening than getting my butt kicked by a big, bad boss. =P

I just think a simple warning the first time a player is possibly going to drown themselves would be handy for newbies. Of course, for experienced players it's no big deal.

Should probably give a pop-up message the first time someone tries to enter the ocean on a world.
