✪ Summary:

Raise a hand if you accidentally used this month's "Punk Challenge" breeding boost.

I have.

I've also accidentally used Buff Balls on the wrong lion because I had to go away from keyboard and forgot what I was doing when I got back. I almost had someone snipe last year's Dorsal Fur boost out from under me for pennies because I hadn't yet set the price.

To forget is human. It happens to everyone. But let's also remember the monetary value behind the items we use on here, and the time investment some of them cost us, as well as how some are once-a-year things (looking at you, Dorsal Fur).

It would be more beneficial than not to add an option in user settings to enable warnings, to allow users to take precautionary steps toward protecting their investments if they are prone to mistakes or forgetting.

For those of you who fear this will be automatically imposed upon you, bear in mind that I always endorse optional settings to improve the individual user experience.


✪ What I Am Proposing:

[+] When any breeding boost is active and the lion is bred or the king is studded to, pop up a confirmation window which lists breeding boosts.

This would include, but not be limited to:
- Dorsal Fur Breeding Boost (May Challenge)
- Buffalo Scrotum
- Lion Scrotum
- GMO Cow
- Any and all future breeding boosts gained from events or items.

[+] This window would simply read either:

If the king has boosts and is about to breed a lioness or fulfill a stud request:
WARNING: This stud has the following boosts active: BOOST HERE; BOOST HERE. Do you still wish to stud him to this lioness?

If you are about to breed a lioness you own with boosts.
WARNING: This lioness has the following boosts active: BOOST HERE; BOOST HERE. Do you still wish to breed this lioness?

If you are about to stud a lioness with boosts to a king:
WARNING: This lioness has the following boosts active: BOOST HERE; BOOST HERE. Do you still wish to place the stud request?

[+] Users can toggle this setting on or off in user settings at the bottom of their den page.

If you don't support, I'd like to know why. I appreciate constructive criticism over a simple "no".

This would be so helpful! If people are really against having the warning message displaying, maybe there could be a toggle on/off button with the rest of the toggle-able features?

Alira (#254843) :: That's the idea, yeah. I've always been heavily in-favor of 'options', because some additions may work really well for a lot of people, but get in the way of the experience for others.

I was gonna make a post suggesting a popup to appear if your king has any breeding items applied - luckily I stumbled across this first! I know it's been 2 years since the post was made, but I hope they add it. It's somewhat of a pain on mobile to be on a lion's page to breed, then have to scroll down to click on your king to make sure all of the items you have applied to him are correct, and then switch back to the original lion. Not hard, mind you - just tedious. Something like this, maybe?

Your king currently has the following applied:
Dorsal Fur Boost
Buffalo Scrotum
Ochre Gnawrock (Slot 9)
Ochre Powder
Opal Saltlick
Rock Salt

Are you sure you wish to breed to this lioness?


One-time boosts should be listed first (Dorsal Fur, Tigon boost, potential Jaglion boost?) I think, due to their rare nature, but other than that, alphabetical order is probably ok. Or just the same order as they appear on your king's page?

Since they added the feature to be able to breed lionesses directly from your king's page (which could use work, honestly - I never use it) an inverse pop up message would be handy there if your lioness has any items applied. I don't think it'd be entirely necessary to have a pop up if the only one with items applied is on the same page you're currently on, if that makes sense, since the banners are already visible without needing to switch to a different lion's page.

The pop up should also only appear the first time a breeding attempt is made. I'd like to have the feature enabled but I'd disable it if it wanted me to confirm 17 times for the same damn VLF

Thank you for the input. I definitely agree with the addendums here.
