Suggestion: Pointing!

[fiddi 4]

Hello, one problem that my friend and I have is that when we are going to plan were we are going or perhaps when I see a building in the distance which I would like to point out is that the other one doesn't know where I mean and I have to explain!

 

We had this idea that a pointing function could be introduced into the game much like the current "emotes", like wave, sit etc.

 

Sure, this is not a big problem but not one that's hard to implement or time consuming, so it could be done simultaneous to other "bigger" things.

 

Anyway, it would be useful and I would like it very much if this were implemented!

 

Regards

 

 

PS. I know it is an Alpha, no need to remind me...

Not a bad idea!

Sounds great.

 

We have middle finger pointing but no pointing?

That would be cool got the same problem when I'm playing with my friends would make it much easier to comunicate!

Yeah needs to be done. Ever tried to guide someone with low blood??

You're all like "yeah see the green bungalow over there!? yeah it has beans in it; you can eat go get em"
The they're like  "Wait what!? What green house?"
And you're like "The one right there... Like.. East-ish"
and there like ".Umm.... I can barely even see you dude"

So you end up taking the lengthy trip with them holding there hand like a baby. When really you should be taking point or looking for more food for them. Being able to point and have them follow where you're pointing would be damn helpful. At least back in the Mod i could throw flares in the direction I was talking about. Side note; Are flares even in yet?

That is a great idea and i also think that you should be able to use all of the "emotes" while moving (Except for sitting obviously)

It's already confirmed. Rocket confirmed it in the livestream prior to release.
