(fixed) drop item area too small (DSB0.25)

Post by linflas »

the title says it all.
i'm used to drop items on the floor by clicking closer to the center of the front square than in the corner defined by the area.
and DSB doesn't handle this, such as CSBwin and original DM but i'm too used to RTC and feel now annoyed when i have tons of things to drop..
(or maybe RTC defines the right bottom corner as a default drop area ?)

I've had trouble with it as well. I tend to drop too high for the closer clickzones. I've been looking through the base files, but I haven't located the dungeon clickzones. Assuming they are somewhere in there, they could be changed.

Here's a diagram of DSB's clickzones:

As you can see, there's a bit of "dead zone" around the middle and the edges, so I can probably enlarge those a bit for you.
Unfortunately, the front square zones run right up against the zones from one square ahead, so I can't do much about a "dropping too high" problem. :(
