Disallow trading or upgrading with food in hand

[RPoule]

Hey :)
this is a quick suggestion that could help a lot of us eggwars tryharders out in long, good fights on small islands of SOLO or 2 player maps.

A thing I notice very often is that whenever I try to eat a golden apple when im getting low or just food to start regenerating again during the fight is that I'll accedently enter the villager or the generator menu, usually this happens to me whenever I've started eating and turn away. This is annoying because

A. Ill have to tap out again which gives my oponent a bit of a time advantage (I cant hit him whenever im in the menu)
B. I still haven't eaten my food yet meaning that I'll lose even more time and hearts.

My solution/suggestion is simple (although I do not know if it is actually possible :/). Just check for which item is being held by each player, if that item is considered food or maybe also a potion? Then don't allow the player to access the villager and generator menu.

Yes I know everyone will have this same problem so it could be considered fair but, it's not part of pvp gameplay and it causes fights to become more about, running away to a place without villagers and generators to eat instead of a quick snack and then proceed with the slaughtery.

Thanks for reading :)

The struggles, I feel them too.
What I do is look at my feet before consuming.

I know what you mean, but since a few months I dont see/hear this anymore. Maybe they can send a message in the chat that you shouldnt upgrade/shop anything when food in your hand. Just forbid it is pretty annoying

While this does happen to me all the time and I rage about it very hard, I don't know if this is an easy fix or even worth the effort tbh.

I know how you feel and I've ha it too many times. So to make this reply short YES PLS :3 +1

 

[ElPtricko]

I haven't had this problem... somehow.
Though, I see some people are having this issue, and I think this could be a fix that might work.

This is not a bump.

It isn't really hard to look in another direction though is it..?

It isn't :D but on small islands it's really easy to turn away and accedently open up the menu, I'm not saying this happens every singpe time to me but when it does it panics people out, affecting the fight.
