    I have seen quite a few suggestion threads throughout my time on this forum, some of which are for features that are actually already in the game files, but haven't been implemented. Aswell as some ideas that don't receive any negative feedback what-so-ever and are easy to implement. When are they going to get around to adding these small features?

    Threads like:

    Visual Axes for cutting down trees as builder

    Removing the barrier bounce and just making it as a wall that nothing can go through

    https://forum.kag2d.com/threads/remove-red-barrier-bounce.17267/#post-251333

    Rebindable emotes without having to manually go into the game files and change them

    Taunts from classic

    Ability to change skin color

    https://forum.kag2d.com/threads/visually-differentiating-characters-cheaply.17101/page-2

    Tapatalk for mobile forums

    https://forum.kag2d.com/threads/tapatalk.13261/#post-205653

    A lot of these threads are simply forgotten about and are likely never to get a second look. The skin color thread was brought back TWO MONTHS later. The Tapatalk thread was made in April in which it was then moved; from there an ADMIN asked about it a month later and received no answer. I even made a thread asking if there was a mobile forum for KAG or going to be one. I never received a message saying the subject had already been brought up.

    What is going to be done with these ideas?

    KAG Forum works on mobile, if you're using an Android/Windows Phone, I don't know about iPhones

    Yes it works on mobile, but some features are slow and un-optimized. Having a program such as Tapatalk would work exceedingly well.

    I've actually never had any issues with anything on KAG Forums on mobile.

    iOS works perfectly fine for me; doesn't slow down or load bad or anything. Might be whatever connection you're using to view the forums.

    Either way, the main point to this thread is that there are tons of features suggested that have been long forgotten about, that people wanted in game and would be easily implemented.

    Modding answers most of these.

    You have to realize that most of the shit people ask for will be something they can now do themselves, and it's great that they suggested it, but they should understand wthe difference between what should be 'suggested', and what should be 'mod request'. Furthermore, suggestion ideas on most indie forums are for the most part just a place for people to post their dumb ideas no one will care about/read, so they don't constantly find the admin's email and message them all day, etc.

    The few things that are only dev doable (actual suggestions), aren't always good ideas, or what devs want even if they are good ideas or meet no actual resistance on the forums.
    1. Moddable

    2.Is of little/no consequence/probably moddable

    3. Waste of time for ease of use, the few people who want it can do it that way.

    4.Probaaaaaaaably moddable, not sure to be honest

    5. You can do a hacky mod of this, but it won't be exactly the same as what you're looking for there. I'm sure that if someone did a good job of it that they would add it in, otherwise just wait, it might happen, it might not, it was a planned feature way before it was suggested, just got dumped a bunch of times.

    6.Not a big deal, it works fine on mobile, albeit not as smooth as tapatalk. Shadlington was working on this but is sadly gone. You might be able to bug Kouji, Rayne or Geti about this, but there are more important forum mods like 'Kicking from conversations' that should be purchased/setup first.

    Me, Rayne or Geti (well Geti might be able to, because he has database access but he's obviously busy with the game) Actually don't have that level of permission.
    Current Tier of Administration:
    • Super Admin/Dev (Shad and Furai)
    • Admin (Me, Rayne, and FBB + those other misc Alt dev accounts)/Dev (MM, Geti, Flab, jrgp)
    • Global Mods/Forum Mods
    • Other Users
    For installing stuff, you need to have Super Admin level of permissions, hence why we've only suggested some useful mods ourselves rather than just implementing it.

    @BlueLuigi Axes and skin color already have files set away for implementing them into the game.

    In the Axe thread, @Spec7 shows a gif of the axe animation and has images of the sprites.

    In the skin color thread @Kouji points out that they were suppose to be added, with @jackitch posting the colors of the skins.
