TH posted the following in response to an ex ID wondering if stat migration had been changed to work differently (after reading the erroneous info in the Friday Feature). There is a little paragraph below that talking about stat migration. So I guess I can tell you TH has taken a personal interest in stat migration issues and there has been some discussion of the things he mentions below among TH and corrs. Cross your fingers.

Nope, this hasn't changed. I updated the text this morning. Thanks.

Of note to the ID's et, al., I'm still trying to get the timer reduced a few minutes and at the very least, we need an "Are you sure" window that pops up when you close the ID session window. I've noticed that what happens is that during the 10 minute cycle people finish up and chat while they are waiting for the session to complete. While they are chatting, they will hit a keystroke that sometimes inadvertently closes the window. This puts the ID and the ID's customer back at square 1 without wanting to be. We need to add that extra window in to help prevent this from happening.

Kwee--

I think this is good news for those who think the stat migration timer is a horrid boon (depending on my mood, I float between that and 'yay!!! now I have a way to FORCE you to listen to me talk for ten minutes). Whether it happens or not, I'm still going to be an Image Designer, ever so much as the day I picked up my first pair of scissors and started the grind to get to the Master I am today.

Just my 2 creds,

P.S.: After seeing all these threads all day, despite my little rant post, I have no doubt that you are one of the best Correspondents here. I praise you for everything you've done for the benefit of the Image Designers...even if sometimes it isn't quite implemented exactly as you wanted it to be.

Yes! They definitely need to do that! I've had more people accidently cancel out a ID window than anything and it is VERY frustrating. Last night the same person did it twice by hitting the "esc" key. While I do realize it's not intentional, it's really annoying especially when you have a few people waiting for more ID work done.

BTW, is there anything done about a helmet bug? There are times where a customer will remove their helmets, yet it will still show in either my or their ID window. Even after you cancel the window and relaunch the ID session again the helmet still shows. It's kind of annoying especially when they want hair changes.

Have your customer very quickly return to character select screen and re-enter world, this seems to fix it 99% of the time.

It seems the helmet bug (and clothing bug) is very complex. I wouldn't expect a fix until after JTL

The devs do want to fix it though, realizing that we can't do our thing with a helmet on the person's head.

*tries to decide if she's just been complimented and insulted... decides that standing out in a crowd is never a bad thing* Thanks!

Anyway... that's what he gets for refusing to take his helmet off during his stat migration.

A shuttle trip can work too, but that really is only faster if you know it "coming in".

Hopefully they deem it ok for it to hit the 5 minute mark (it'd just match the TEF timer which would work out nicely I think).

Thanks for the update, Kwee.

I think a confirmation dialog-box for aborting an ID-mission would help big time.

I don't think we're going to need to worry about the spam when the recursive macros get yoinked. Especially since a tent is part of physical architecture it couldn't get moved until a real patch (not minipublish) anyway.

I would really hate this anyway... I wish all the Salons were right next door to the Cantinas. Tons of people come into the Cantinas looking for ID work and it's really nice to be able to just pop next door.

I wish they were even connected! Like, with a secret Ent Hallway... maybe with a pool area... hmmm...
