Re: Recommendation: Nexus Clash
Nexus Clash has been updated today! While there are some other game mechanics changes that are part of the patch, this update heavily focuses on accessibility improvements that should make some things easier for players using screen readers. There is more that we hope to do for improved accessibility in the future, but this is a start that should help with issues that some of the folks reading this have helpfully flagged for the development team's attention.
The accessibility-related updates are:
● Cardinal-direction (North, East, etc.) move buttons added in the last update now also apply to interior movement.
● Corrected an issue where character creation text remained when typing in character name creation.
● Character targeting dropdowns now say your faction relationship (ally, hostile, etc) to the target, if such a relationship exists. To prevent unneccessary clutter, if you are in your stronghold and your ward is up, the interface doesn't bother with telling you that your factionmates are your factionmates.
● The character planner has been updated to a more accessible version. + and - keyboard shortcuts level and delevel in the new planner version, after a starting skill has been chosen. "G" as a keyboard shortcut generates the skill list.
● Pet targeting dropdowns now tell you the master of the pet and whether you are friendly or hostile to them.
● If you have Spellcraft, spellgems in the safe Discard interface (and legacy safe Withdraw interface) are listed with the name of the spell first, followed by gem color. Their alphabetical order is still based on gem color.
● More keyboard shortcuts have been added to the game:
- X to heal the current dropdown target. Where multiple methods are available, the priorities run Surgery -> Healing Herbs -> Bone Leeches -> First Aid Kits.
- R to pick up (Retrieve) items on the ground.
- B to enter and exit a building. B will also open the door from outside if a closed (but not locked) door is a barrier to entry.
- J to sabotage or repair power. Inside a power plant, this applies to repairing or sabotaging generators.
- W to attack wards or doors
- L to retrieve or capture stronghold flags
- O to bash or build fortifications
- T to shoot targets
