Customized Mode Warning?


UTC-10

Recommended Posts

It seems that occasionally, someone will try to do a customized sandbox, go into the Custom Tool box, then change a setting or two on the visible mode then start the sandbox and find it not operating in any way like a normal, even if customized, sandbox.

The Custom Toolbox shows what seems to be a "Custom" mode complete with settings, but what is not obvious is that a lot of settings are turned off. If the mode is activated the player can find no animals, no fish, no healing, etc. and wonder "what the heck is going on? Must be a bug". 

Maybe that initial "Custom" mode should have no settings (i.e. none or low) visible (i.e. be blank) and/or if the player is going to activate it, be warned that there was no base (Pilgrim, Voyager, Stalker or Interloper) mode selected and then was customized. If the player decides, "I want a sandbox with no chance of long-term survival or I want to try it and see what happens" then the player should be allowed to go ahead.  After all, s/he was warned. 

I hope I made sense.
