Is the intended design for pings to be manual, single pings only? Folks have started to ask whether they can set intermittent pings, or regularly ping every five minutes.
TL;DRPings were designed as manual, but because players would script repeats anyway, the team just approved adding repeating pings to the backlog, with no timing given.
The intended design was always, of course, you hit a button and then the action happens. However, like some other systems that we've had, when we changed ping to always happen rather than only in scan mode, the community comes back with feedback that they would like to improve the game. So I actually just had this conversation with the radar team before this meeting. And even Yogi brought it up with me, I think, a day or two earlier. Even if we don't add the button to repeat the action, players will just make scripts to automatically do that. So we might as well incorporate that. So we literally just got the approval to add that to our backlog, to add that to the feature. So yes, we're going to do that at some point. I mean, players will just do it anyway, so might as well add the support.
But I mean, you could do it. Just be cautious that once we get the signature deltas in, you're going to be exposing yourself more frequently now that other people could see your ping.
