Cube white policy

I saw the "cube shouldnt be pk enabled" thread and remembered one thing that happened to me the other day running cube.

As server has gone so expensive lately Ive quit from pvping (wont waste coins in hp charms if im not in a TWing faction anymore). So Ive usually keep the PK filters on to avoid getting red and just letting me direct attack someone red. However when im on events I usually put the ALL filters on, so i dont aoe someone else red in event.

Happened to me that I got into one of the "I dont wanna leave" rooms (the one where u have to kill someone to pass or pay 4 do all cards) and a sin spawned next to me. He tried to kill me but couldnt, I wasnt able to attack him because he wasnt red (You dont get red inside cube) so i had to change my PK settings. Once i put all the filters off and started attacking him, he went into stealth mode.

Then he appeared again and tried to kill me but couldnt. And i thought he went into stealth but actually i killed him... i was waiting for him to go out of stealth, but then realized he actually died, once the teleporter in the other side of the room dissapeared... (stupid me :/) so i got to pay the do alls anyway.

PKing in cube doesnt make you red so you dont drop, but i think you should be able to direct attack anyone despite your PK settings. Specially in the rooms designed for that. Also I think that if someone dies in cube in result of PK they shouldnt dissapear like "if they were going in stealth" but they should stay in the floor. So you actually know they died.

What you think?

    Pressing "Ctrl" and an attack key will allow you to attack a player no matter your protections when in PK mode.

    That's a good point. It wasn't an issue before sins and stealth, when cube was first designed, so naturally it would cause confusion. Still, I doubt it'll be fixed.

    ^ I am surprised that you, being from HL, didn't know the above. It's how I get around the protections in a tight spot. (Didn't mean that as a personal attack, just am genuinely surprised.)

    Is not that i dont know the CTRL thing (OFC i knew it...) ... its just that it isnt that easy for me to press CTRL everytime i wanna attack... plus i play on a laptop with no mouse just touchpad.

    Imagine me when TAB to target wasnt implemented.... what awful times.

    Actually my problem wasnt that much about the attacking but about him dying without me noticing, because of death and stealth looking the same.
