I was playing the Minotauro and realised I sometimes shoot the reserve shell without meaning to.

You know how you think one of the shells is almost reloaded and you shoot only to realise it did not finish reloading and now your dpm is shit and you are useless for a time being?

I believe a «shell lock» button would be incredibly useful.

What it would be is a button much like a consumable but obviously no cooldown and it would basically allow you to «lock» the reserve shell in a way that unless unlocked you can not fire it. In a situation where you might conversely need it you may unlock at any time.

A further step would be to allow such locks for all shells of a autoreloader but honestly I would just be happy with the reserve one.

What do you think?

By the way, I am a 60%er with 6 years in the game so please, this is not a skill issue post but a frustration I have had for years and want to see if others think like me that a mechanic like I suggested should be implemented.

Dear Reader, (its a long start but please bear with me)

My name is Maxim, I am a Canadian living in Estonia and completing my examinations.

I would like to study at UoA and complete first a Bachelor in History and then a Masters in Education. I would like to be a History teacher in the future.

Obviously there are other Universities that I have applied to and received offers from and so I would like to visit the university so I am better able to make my choice.

Unfortunately I can't make it to the general tours the university offers because of scheduling.

In fact just to show how tight the window is I have already had to book and buy flights. There is genuinely no other way.

What I am left with is two days. the 17th and the 18th of June. I have already mailed UoA (attached bellow)

My question is this. Is there anyone willing to please show me around the University and perhaps Auckland in general on those two days?

If you have any questions for me please ask, I will be more than happy to answer anything.

P.S. happy to make friends while i'm there so if we go to a cafe I'm paying:)

As promised my exchange with UoA

Dear Admissions Team,

I am writing to ask whether an informal campus visit might be arranged on either the 17th or 18th of June. 

I am in Europe and with deadlines from other institutions fast approaching, I need to make my decision soon. Seeing the university in person would be a significant factor in that choice. The travel window available to me is unfortunately very narrow. In fact, narrow enough that I have already had to book my flights. 

I understand that no official tours are scheduled at that time, and I am very conscious that this is an unusual request. I would be grateful for any arrangement you are able to offer, whether that is time with a current student, a staff member, or simply some guidance on how to make the most of an independent visit. I am also very happy to cover any costs involved.

I am happy to answer any questions you may have posthaste. 

Thank you sincerely for considering my request. 

Kind Regards,
Maxim (last name removed)
