    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    All Main Servers
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Reduce /pt & /sell Cooldown
    What are you suggesting:
    The /pt cooldown should be reduced to 1 second from 5
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    Working with either water of lava is damn near impossible now that powertool has been lobotomized as much as it is, and has been rendered virtually useless.

    If the reason for powertool being neutered is that /sell was limited to once every 5 seconds, /sell should be reduced in cooldown to 1 second too.

    Pre-reset, i can understand that there would have been a reason to prevent mass-selling of goods to crank up bank ECD in the face of the transfer, but we're a couple months into 2.0 now, and i believe the limiting of /sell, and presumably /pt is obsolete in function and now only serves as a minor annoyance for those using /sell (it's not even a deterrent, it just takes longer), and a crippling punishment for those using /pt for water/lava in big projects.
    Other information:
    If i am misunderstanding the reason for this limitation, please elaborate before denying this suggestion.
    Plugin or custom addition:

    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    I can literally make a macro to do a " t /fill water enter" macro on a button press bypassing the pt cooldown anyway. Just gives the less technlogical people an even advantage.

    Literally does nothing but annoys us users. It isnt a long enough cooldown to have any impact other than to be annoying.

    This. All the cooldown has done is force me to fuck with macros and waste a lot of time without changing anything.

    Cooldown lowered to 0.5 seconds, better than suggested. :)
    This will prevent the exploits we are trying to prevent by having a cooldown, and at the same time give a nice functioning powertool.

    /sell cooldown will never be touched on the other hand.
