Obtena.7952 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I find it too small a bar to easily select. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holotype.1643 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I saw a suggestion about hovering over that area which creates a radial pop-up with the mount choices. That is something I'd like to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElderNewt.5840 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 You know you can always keybind the differnt mounts so you dont have to click the swap mount button all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stalkingwolf.6035 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 maybe use a key? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayakaru.6583 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Forget the mount button, give us a radial key already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Signet Of Whatever.9056 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I'm using the keyboard binds now for swapping. But there's not just one key to swap is that right? I think you have to hit one key to dismount then then another key to mount the other mount. Although of course I hope it can be done with one key. I haven't yet looked at the radial key video posted above so don't know how that plays in yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfeather.6401 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I made it so shift+(key) does each mount. It makes things a little easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a flesh wound.3589 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I was using that annoying little mount button until I found out you could keybind them separately. I now use the mount key for the raptor and a separate key for each of the other mounts. That seems to do well enough. If it could be made so we didn’t dismount, wait through the cooldown then remount that would be good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narrrz.7532 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I like radial bar idea. Hold-click on your mount icon and drag outwards to quickly select a different mount (and mount it if appropriate?)Edit: I'd also like to be able to select different mounts in combat, even if i can't actually get on them. Sometimes you only have a split second window to mount before an incoming attack hits, and too often i find that my selected mount is not the one that i actually need to mount in that situation.

Operator.2590 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 This might be a Necro, but I just wanted to say: The Radial menu for mount selection is an actual thing. It’s an addon you can add that’s within Anet’s TOS that was greenlit by Chris.Just remember the usual disclaimer that adding this is at your own risk (not that it’s difficult though), and any problems it may cause if done incorrectly, Anet can’t help with. (Again, it’s easy though.) So making a backup is always a safe bet.This video explains how to install if you need a tutorial, it’s the first one he talks about (Timestamp being 1:20). Links are also provided in the description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slpr.2647 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 that IS a cool add-on, but IMO, keybinding is just quicker and smoother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tukaram.8256 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 The button never bothered me, as it is the same size as the skill buttons. But I did key bind my mounts (currently have 4). What I found that pushing any of the 4 mount buttons will dismount any mount. So if I want the rabbit, but on the raptor, I just push the rabbit key, to dismount the raptor, then push the rabbit key again to mount. It just makes it easier that any of the bound mount keys will dismount you.I use very few keyboard commands, I prefer the mouse. But for mounts I will use the keys.

Makes it very easy for me to mount up quickly, especially in escaping combat situations. Even better, if you have Air Rescue trained on your griffon or skyscale, you can jump off a cliff, glide, and mount in midair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Hayes.6890 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Keybinding does seem to be our best option. I'd prefer a customizable HUD but that would be asking a lot. The current button is slightly difficult to use and making it larger would help. I just would rather be able to move it than resize it. Both options would be nice.

Its ah, not actually the same size, its a little smaller, and now it also shares a slot with the novelty tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knighthonor.4061 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Honestly all UI should be scalable. But I would like that one mod for Mounts to be made baseline so I can get back some of my keybinds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrigginPaco.4178 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 You could use shift + 1-5, "R", "F", and "C". That's what I've done for every mount released in chronological order.Keybinding mounts is so much more efficient than clicking on the mount option and clicking on your next mount. A lot of time and attention is wasted on that when it is exceptionally more responsive to do it the other way.I think I found my keys for them shortly after getting the first for during PoF's original release.
