Avatar loses title on element change

[PhanaticD]

When a avatar changes their element they lose their title until a relog

he did "/b choose fire"

 

[Finn_Bueno_]

That's because when you change your element, all your elements get cleared and it is set to the 1 element you specified.

 

[jedk1]

well uh... yeah... cos he changed element.

 

[PhanaticD]

.... thats irrelevant to the fact that the title should be avatar no matter what

 

[Hero]

I think he wants a way for people to choose and/or add a bending skill without a reset.

Erm no. Avatar title depends on if the player has more than one element, and doing /b choose clears all your current elements and makes your only element the specified one.

 

[PhanaticD]

then why does it say avatar after a relog... you either have the avatar rank or not. It is not dependent on which element you want to use.. you are avatar regardless! so it should say it

It's not a rank, so much as a prefix. It just shows what element the player has, and shows avatar when said player has more than 1. Why it doesn't stay as fire would be a bug.

I hate to rain on your parade buddy but, I just read the code, yes, it is dependent on what element you are.

 

[PhanaticD]

if it is dependent on what element you are... then every avatar on my server should not have a title? I am just not following the logic

it is based on the avatar permission node, not multiple elements. Every single avatar on my server can only bend one element at once currently and they still have the title

...ok. Sure. Whatever you'd like to think pal. But you're incorrect. I coded it.

DUDE I AM READING THE CODE. Okay let me sum it up into dumbed down terms for ya. On player's element change, if they have more than 1 element, give them avatar prefix. if not, get the new element, and set that as their prefix. I hope this clears it up.

 

[PhanaticD]

okay on my server there are literally players that have one element, but also the permission node: - bending.avatar

and they have the title.

oh then thats a bug.

yes and I am saying that that is a bug since they have the permission node for avatar...

 

[PhanaticD]

basically what it comes down to

does having the permission node bending.avatar mean they are an avatar, or does bending multiple elements mean they are an avatar. I would like to think it is the permission node as that actually makes the most sense, so that is a bug that when switching elements the title does not display, and the whole reason I made this thread.

Okay so its a bug, but it isn't. Because depending on your perspective of the bending world, you could see 1 element as a non avatar. Its all based on perspective.

 

[PhanaticD]

I see having permission node "bending.avatar" as avatar

 

[StrangeOne101]

In all honesty, you can't call people with only 1 element "avatars". The permission node should just be for if they are allowed to be called an avatar. That said, that doesn't mean you should be called an avatar with only one element. That logic is screwed in my opinion xD

true but if for some reason they choose to only be using one at that point in time doesnt mean they arent an avatar. I dont know this really isnt even a big deal
