Primary and Secondary hats

Grandpa · 06-23-2015

this idea is purely comical, so keep that in mind before spewing negativity.

the title implies that you can wear two hats, a primary (goes over secondary hat) and secondary - these can be manually set. you could probably come up with some pretty rad combinations, considering the plethora of hats that are available. shoulder pads+helmet, mask+fedora, etc.

obviously not all hats look good in conjunction, seeing as how some hats have the same design. but this simply encourages experimentation with different hats and gives more customizable options, which is a relatively redundant factor in graal.

tell me your thoughts down below.

This is a nice idea, though if it was added it would most certainly cause lag and would probably be a VIP feature.

I know this sounds dumb, but maybe a "Build a hat" shop. U chose categories such as "Shoulder pads, helmet, cap, mask, etc etc" and you decide their colour. Then the more items u add into a hat, the more money it costs. maybe 8k per hat layer, therefore this shall remain special.

they can add "masks" tho.

I'd like this.

Not really a dumb at all, it's quite a viable solution given every animation wouldn't need to be modified to introduce a second hat, and you wouldn't have the problem of lag. The only issue would be storing each player's hat combinations as a seperate hat file which would add up to a fair amount of space being consumed when factoring 3000+ players.

It's very VERY unlikely. There is an amount of attributes that a player can have and the pre-existing attributes (head, shield, body, hat, ) already take up spaces. There's a few more but I can't personally remember on the top of my head. But adding more attributes would add lag and might break the system.

Albie · 06-23-2015

I might be mistaken but surely it could just grab all the files, and merge them down in the order you wanted them?
Or would that not be possible in graal?

I mean it would be possible if we just flattened both hats into one image at the end, but ultimately it'd be weird. Imagine having a small 'bowler' hat on top of a regular top hat--- Aesthetically speaking, it'd be very weird.

why not just make hats the same way as custom bodies and heads. the price could be around 6k or something.

If the players choose to pay for a weird hat, that's their choice. They're still paying gralats which in turn is creating profit.

I'm not sure how plausible this is, but I like the idea.

Yet theyre paying for it. And if theyre dumb enough to do this, so be it. I dont think much people will do this considering just these 2 layers would estimate at around 16000 if 1 layer was 8k.

Smart people would do masks, in helmet and so on, maybe shoulder pads too.... oooh, they added horns as well!...... There are cool combos, and i dont think people would waste gralats on dumb combos.

Do you know this community? They'll spend gralats on ANYTHING.
