Suggestion from Reddit

That kind of defeats it resetting after each NP doesn't it? If you are going to do that you might as well make it selectable and just add a cooldown for changing it or have it wait till NP. Pope seems to me like it is ideally an active-play boost.

I tend to agree, I was just copying it in here for discussion.

EPSIL0N commented 10 years ago

I'm on the fence, I like that it generally rewards active play but I have found it a major pain that it also removes the selection during temporal rift related ONGs which can be fairly common occurrence as for example I was farming goats for a little but using excess QQs, the herder boost and the holiday (holidip?) effect of not activating the ninja before going into the next rift but that leads to having to reset the papal decree every five-ten seconds.

LucidCrux commented 10 years ago

Maybe an exception can be made for temporal rift jumps. Haven't looked into that being checkable for ONG so maybe not.

eternaldensity commented 10 years ago

Some other things in ONGS are excluded if temporal rift is active. (Though that doesn't actually equal when there's a temporal rift jump, it's only an approximation)

waveney commented 10 years ago

I have been playing with a mod that allows Molpy.ONG to distingish between a normal ONG and that from a Temporal Rift, and having the Papal Reset only on the normal ONG, other ONG properties could use the same logic. I have not yet concluded that it was worth it, so haven't pushed a patch for it.
