    Thank you for reporting. Looks like we missed one of the combat modes. Fixing now.

    After further investigation we cannot enable l/r mouse movement in combat because mouse is already being used for other things in that mode (and has never been supported in that mode). Sorry for misunderstanding this.

    I suggest to make options, give us options to use mouse move or mouse attack, I also suggest this for every mechanic, give us options so that many different play styles and real person interactions with the game can be covered, not everyone will be happy with a static system, but having a dynamic system will help keep and build the player base vs. having only a single set/type of player limiting the player base to a lower amount compared to if we had options

    I have no idea what the "other things" are - that are suddenly here now - that made the change necessary.
    Are you saying that we won't be able to run in the future (in combat mode) with the l/r mouse buttons pressed simultaneously - like we've been doing for literally years now ?
    Please tell me that I'm misunderstanding you @DarkStarr .

    clarify that's only with charged attack? l/r run with autoattack works fine (except that autoattack keeps switching itself off.)

    Part of that has to do with the toggle charge/auto attack key went away, so left click now become charge attack by default while T just enable/disable auto attack.

    The T key now switches from free attack to auto attack. After you attack something press the T key and will switch to auto attack at which time you can walk with the mouse. It appears this must be done with each entry into combat.

    Yup, now my question is why should we have to continually tell the client that we want to be in autoattack ?
    Please give us a toggle that says "Stay in AutoAttack" or "Keep AutoAttack on Manual" !

    I can understand the necessity of going out of AutoAttack when we get out of Combat mode, but certainly not after every kill ( or after skinning what I just killed for that matter ) .

    Fighting is what I enjoy most and, not coincidently, what I do most.
    Please don't make it a pain in the arse just to keep fighting.....

    Right. Up until this release we didn't leave auto attack mode quite so readily. I suspect they could fix that by re-enabling the auto-attack option but this a long weekend so.....

    Is there some reason I need to hit the "T" key every time I come up to a new MOB. Would not setting it to stay in Auto Attack until I change it be much better. If I run up on an MOB it is my intent to attack it, not kiss it.

    Please Fix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah, I have logged on and off quite a few times since R31, targeting has improved, but still confusing, cant understand the constant change of things that seem to work. Also, constant disconnecting now seems to be happening in more scenes. Over it. Hope it gets fixed. glad I still have old UO account to fall back on, just seems to be deteriorating here. I will log on again in a few days, with hopefully smoother game play.
