Suggestion type
Improvement

Suggestion scope
Humans and Zombies attacking menu

Suggestion description
Have the ability to set a default attacking weapon. Instead of when you move or perform another action and having your attack change back to the basic attack (say 'punch' if you are playing survivor) it stays on the weapon you selected as default.

Voting Rules

Votes must be numbered, justified, signed, and timestamped. # justification ~~~~ Votes that do not conform to the above may be struck by any user.

The only valid votes are Keep, Kill, Spam or Dupe. If you wish to abstain from voting, do not vote.

Keep Votes

1. Keep - It's annoying when you are halfway done with killing someone and you want to stop for some witty banter before finishing them off, only to find out that - oops! You punched them instead of knifing them to death. Or guns, whatever. --Uncle Bill 04:47, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
2. Keep - As above. Not a dupe of "Weapon_Selection_Lock" because "i propose a weapon use lock in. which means when you use an axe for an attack that weapon will still be the weapon of choice the next turn." is how it works currently - ie, if you attack twice in a row it will still be the same weapon. This suggestion is meant to address what happens after you do something besides attack. Not a dupe of "Set Default Weapon" because that requires you to choose a weapon from the settings menu, which it would automatically default to, no matter what you used last. MindBrain's suggestion would keep the last used weapon as the default selection, which is far more useful/far less annoying (ie, with MindBrain's it won't keep selecting your empty gun after you hack something with an ax, but with "Set Default Weapon" it would if the gun was your default). --Ms.Panes 07:03, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Kill Votes

1. Kill - Pointless confusion. Certain firefox extensions make selecting a weapon easier anyway.--Jed 07:25, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Multiple/Dupe - only one suggestion allowed per day. --Pdeq^Talk* 03:27, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

   To Karek, depends if you go by the timestamps on the current suggestions page or the pages themselves. I guess you can consider this multiple vote withdrawn. --Pdeq^Talk* 04:08, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

2. Dupe, and Multiple- Too lazy to find link but you are violating the rules. -- BKM 03:36, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
3. Spam - Uneeded and over complicated, even if it seems simple. The Defaults kinda already exist, it defaults to what you last used on that character. Also to the two above voters, the other one was the second suggestion and was {{Multi}} removed, so this isn't a multi.--Karek^maps?! 03:44, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
4. Dupe - Also this.--Pesatyel 06:18, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
