Hotkey for slot spinning https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=23358.msg297098#msg297098

So, my idea is very simple: when winning a match and displaying the slots, a player may press the space bar instead of clicking "spin all" in order to spin the slots.  It seems simple enough to code, and would slightly reduce the time it takes for grinding, and is overall just more convenient for the player.

Thoughts?

Nice idea. I would prioritize faster coin flip and faster spin options first but this would help too.

Word. Coin flip takes up like 4-5 secpnds. A long time if you are serious about grinding. I suggest the removal of the coin flip alltogether.

Eh, I personally still agree with aesthetically needing a coin flip.  Otherwise new players won't necessarily get that who goes first is chosen randomly.

Putting the "spin all" on spacebar would be handy. I doubt zanz would go for overall faster gameplay though. The slownes of the game has it's charm (the coinflip, the card drawing, etc). Otherwise it would be almost machinal playing with no eyecandy.

Very good idea and while Zanz's at it.. please add which lvl 3, which lvl 5, which FG or which player you've just lost to or beaten.. can't be much work either =)

In low quality this would be epic, along with drawing animations.
Nice idea btw :)

Once again, very unlikely to happen. The game could be made so a match takes 20-30 seconds, but Zanz chose not to.

Less time to decide who begins and more time to play!
When i run antivirus scans my pc lags like hell(low Cpu) and sometime the game freezes at the coin flip or the drawing animation;
It's quite boring and I wish I had an option to disable these animations...

My Idea: A check box next to the Upgrade Card button (after all the quests, etc.) for turning all of these animations off + a hotkey for spinning. This would make it a bland, mainly text-based card game that would only work for hard-core grinders.

Regardless of these suggestions being put up, this topic is about simply adding a hotkey for the slots, nothing more.  Try to stay on topic, please.

I cannot say how many times I've tried to initiate spins by hitting Spacebar just by instinct.  I fully support this idea. :)
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.
