Fundamental Game Play Issues

[Kaisha]

The x,y,z position of a character is always known. The arrow points at the top of the character model. While there is no model (while it's still loading), it's just drawn at the default offset, which is (0,0,0) from the target. However, targeting already works even without the model. So it definitely is possible to have something targeted without having the model data. So if they need to make the character disappear while loading new equipment graphics (which is understandable), they could still keep the target, as those two are different things.

Hell, they can make the target cursor/name jump down to the no-model pivot point and then back above the model when it reloads in after gear-swap for all I care, as long as I keep the focus.



Also, another vote for Tractor being useless. I've had 50+ occasions in Voidwatch where it would have been immensely helpful (since the current T4 batch spams AoE like nothing else in the game), but it wipes your status since it zones you, rendering it unusable.




Also for a minority problem: Accidentally disconnecting your gamepad during play requires you to reload all of FFXI for it to redetect it.
