Confirmation Box for Keeping or Throwing Fish/Moving Prompts

Confirmation Box for Keeping or Throwing Fish/Moving Prompts
Posted 2021-01-30 11:57:13

i'll preface by saying i know this might be a 'me' problem, but im sure there has to be at least one or two people out there who would also benefit from a change like this.

i'd really like to see some kind of secondary confirmation on keeping or throwing a fish, or making them less easy to click by accident to begin with!

i have an issue with my hands that causes me to unintentionally double click somewhat frequently, and i've lost a few fish by clicking on the ripple and immediately releasing (and clicking again), which is frustrating but easy enough to deal with. however, i just clicked on a ripple and was able to catch the fish, but the ripple had appeared right under where the "keep" prompt appears, and i accidentally clicked again after releasing the mouse button to catch, causing me to keep that second regular fish... replacing my legendary fish i'd been saving to turn in. (hopefully that makes sense, i've found it hard to explain this in the past.)

alternatively, rather than having a confirmation box, perhaps the 'keep' and 'throw' prompts could be moved off of the water (or at least the main portion of the water). with some minor edits i feel like they could fit fairly well (albeit snugly) on the rocky shore at the top of the fishing window, and therefore would be out of the way of accidental fish-related misclicks anyway.

either of these changes i think would just require coding, potentially some art if the latter was considered.

lemme know your thoughts, if you've had problems with this too (i'm not alone right lmao) or have other ideas about it!
