Im new here, but been playing UO for wayyy to long. Reg books would be nice to see here, Store all regs and potions in a book thats pretty much the same as a rune book. Also when you cast a spell make it not turn towards who or what your casting at. Will reduce pull back lag alot and improve game play.
Fun shard otherwise.
Runebooks here are not newbied, so I'm not sure what you gain from a reg book that you don't get from putting your regs inside a bag. Most of the time regs are what people want to loot the most when someone dies, I can't see them ever being newbied.
Potions stack here so again I don't see a need for a reg book.
I like the idea and thank you for the suggestion as far as turning toward the object of a spellcast, but I think it's important in group fighting to know that 3 people are FSing you as opposed to your partner. If they don't turn when FSing, there's no way to know.
