UO has so many things a player might do on any given day that I sometimes wish there was a way to keep up inside the game with everything I need to do and would like to do.
I tried Warhammer Online when it first came out and it included a book of achievements, I forgot it's exact name, but everytime you completed something new it registered in the book.
In UO we can use our profiles to keep notes, but that is visible to the public, or we can use books but those we need to keep up with which I'm not so good at.
What I'd like is a place on the paperdoll for a book/scroll/thought symbol, click on it and get a diary/planner with tabs, some preset some freestyle where I can keep up with my character's activities ingame.
Examples:
Preset tabs would include a description of the activity, how far your char has progressed in each activity, how far he/she has left to go in each and a checkbox at the end that he/she can check to show they've done that activity for that day. It would be excellent if we could see the past month or maybe even the entire history of that character's activities in the preset tabs.
1. a General Account tab: would autolist all chars on that account and have 2-3 lines available for the account owner to make general notes: for example:
Char one name (game autolists name) player fills in notes: Tame 25 unis in Grimswind Ruins to gain taming and turn in for Zoo Collection points. Checkbox That the player can check to show he/she has tamed and turned in those 25 unis for that day (well she) This is more for a quick look at that account's needs for the day since most of us have more than one account to tend to each day.
2. Individual Character tabs: Game automatically creates a tab for each character on the account and each character tab contains character specific tabs inside such as:
a. Virtues tab: Shows how far you have advanced in each has checkbox for each day that you can check (or game autochecks for you?) when you have done the required work to advance. Shows any rewards earned.
b. Quests tab: autolists all quests and how far the character has advanced in each and how far they have left to go to finish (includes those quests on the avatar like solen quests that are not included in current quest list) Has a checkbox the player can check to show they've done what they needed or wanted to in that quest for the day.
c. Skills training tab: auto list character's skill levels has checkboxes a player can check to show he/she did their skill training for that day.
d. Guild page for that char autolist all guild info and would be awesome if it could list new guild messages from the GM (not sure if that would be possible)
e. Faction info page for that account/char with any pertinent info and checkboxes again to keep up with it all.
g. Achievements page: shows all titles completed events for that player
h. Diary page (private!) for that character that the player can write him/herself
i. Freestyle pages that we can set up ourselves for other activities such as tending our plants, making kegs, etc., also include checkboxes if we so desire.
Generally I need a way to keep up ingame with everything I want to do, even though I will never have the time to do everything.
Hopefully others will find this idea useful and add to or take away from it and the devs might consider implementing it in the future and Save a Few Trees!
I keep notes on real paper now.
