FLYING: MOUNTING AND CLASS BROOMS

[Frebii]

MOUNTING:
Basically bring back old mounting: You used to be able to spam right click (in classes), which lead to most people taking off pretty much at the same time. Now you basically have to wait til you see the yellow "magic enabled" command in chat and time it perfectly to start normally. So eventually some people end up starting off before other players since you can't spam right click anymore (it has like a 1 second cooldown). Also you have to look up around 180° degrees to avoid "start-crashing". You used to get a higher leap (before Revelius) to avoid crashing right after you mount your broom, which was way better and less buggy.

CLASS BROOMS:
Just give the (MINIGAME) Flying Brooms, Class Brooms and Tournament Brooms the same mechanic. Why increase the curve delay on class brooms? whats the point in that? it only irritates newer and older players and the normal/old mechanic geniunely felt way smoother.
Please just bring back the old class broom mechanic (I like that you don't get to keep the class brooms anymore, nice change on that)

Hello again Frebii,
Thanks for making a suggestion for Potterworld. We are always looking for ways to improve our server and so player feedback and suggestions are very important to us!
I will now discuss your idea with the other Poltergeists and we will get back to you soon with a reply.
Have a magical day!

Heya again @Frebii,

We are happy to tell you that part of your suggestion has been accepted, namely the part about crashing when starting to fly. Instead of increasing the "leap" when mounting we are working to fix the start crash issue entirely. Players should no longer crash while mounting on paths, slabs, or if they mount while looking down once this fix is stabled and implemented to live.
However, we will be keeping the 1 second cooldown for now, since we feel like crashing slows down players enough already and any longer cooldown is plain annoying. The cooldown at the start can also be considered an additional skill to master.
As for making the minigame/class/tournament the same, we unfortunately are not able to do this. These brooms are going to be slightly different, as class brooms use a different spell/speed than those on live just because of how they are meant to work.
We hope this explains our decision adequately and that it is not too disappointing.

Thanks again for your suggestion and have a wonderful day!

Hello @Frebii,

I am happy to inform you that this suggestion has now been completed! We recently edited our class brooms to increase the initial leap when cast to be two blocks higher. We hope this solves the issue of crashing into objects when mounting brooms in class. As previously noted, however, we will not be making our other brooms consistent with each other or altering their cooldowns.

We thank you for leaving this suggestion and hope you have a wonderful day!
