(I’m not sure if feedback is still being reviewed or taken into account, or even if this thread is still active, but I suddenly had a bunch of random feedback/ideas that I figured it couldn’t hurt to share).

First of all, I just want to make it abundantly clear that I am a HUGE fan of this feature. I really enjoy finding event items thru this feature. The most recent St. Paddy’s day event (hunting planet clovers and cabbages) gave me a great goal to keep me hooked for the two weeks I was hunting items. I would very much like to see a monthly event thing like this.

OK I admit I didn’t read every post on this thread because its almost 11pm and I just dont have the mental capacity to do that, so I’m sorry if a lot of these are repeats.

I know a lot of these suggestions would be things that would require greater system changes to enable the functionality, but why not, let me just write everything down:

1. Status filter: I agree with Lilith, I would REALLY like a Status: Ready filter be added, so I dont have to search through my n pages of Exploring or Resting creatu to find the one that’s Ready.

2. Exploring other planets: I may be in the minority, but I actually really do like only being able to explore your home planet - especially with how easy it is to switch planet using aura candles (which are easy to get via Twunties Treasures or Explore on other planets). Maybe to assuage users who are upset with only being able to explore their home planet, the chance of finding an aura candle while exploring a non-native planet can be increased? That being said, if the explore function completely replaces the RE egg finding, then I do think it might be a good idea to make it easier to explore other planets. Maybe allowing users to explore other planets, but can only send out ONE creatu to visit a non-native planet at a time?

3. Health: I also believe that your health should decrease by points, instead of percentage. IMO creatu with very high starting health or with a high max health should be able to explore longer (at least until they’re too hungry). 

1. 
   
2. 4. Pagination: I also agree with Lilith here that I would appreciate having page numbers at the bottom of the explore page. I might just be too lazy to scroll up, though.
3. 
   
4. 5. Color filter glitch: I’m not sure if this is just me (definitely could be), but the Color: Natural filter does not work for me. It still shows all colored creatu. I have not checked the other colors.
5. 
   
6. 6. Food/mass-feeding pets: I would love to see a link to the food pen (next to the Scria health place link) for easy access. Hm side thought - would it ever be possible to get a notification if you’re heading into reset with an empty food pen (and w/ pets that are starving)? Idk if this would make things “too easy”
7. 
   
8. 7.  Health penalty: Now this might not be popular, but as we have pets that can starve, maybe we should have pets that can die from having too low health? Ie. Heading into reset with no health causes death?? Again, this might not be very popular. There might also already be something like this that I’ve forgotten.
9. 
   
10. 8. More explore page functionality as a method of viewing all profile creatu: I’ve found the explore page to be the BEST way to view all my profile creatu. The teeny tiny little left/right toggle on the left panel menu I personally find is a very inconvenient way to scroll through your profile creatu to change which creatu you have selected (especially as we all have more creatu on our profiles now, with how much we explore). I would greatly enjoy being able to select a creatu on the explore page to make them my active/selected creatu, instead of having to go through those tiny arrows. Especially on mobile!
11. 
    
12. 9. “Featured creatu” profile field: OK this would probably require a drastic change to profiles that might not be possible. I think I saw a post somewhere on this thread where people said the numbers of creatu they needed for exploring ( to constantly have 4 exploring) meant having a BUNCH of creatu on display on their profile that they really would have preferred not to have on display. Maybe to solve this, there could be a toggle called “Featured Creatu” under each creatu’s image on your Explore page. If this was set to “yes,” then their image would show up large on the profile (much like how they normally appear when visiting other people’s profiles). There could be another field (All Profile Pets field?) that would display ALL creatu (including those not “Featured Creatu=Yes”).
13. 
    
14. 10. Explore log: I know someone has mentioned this already - a page that showed your log for the day. Such as “x creatu sent out”, “x creatu returned with loot a, b, c”, 3 creatu fed, creatu healed for 19,600 TU”....
15. 
    
16. 11. A thank you for beta testers: it looks like in this thread there’s a number of users that are a bit... unsettled with the prospect of their work being reset during go-live. Not sure if when this goes live a small gift/token of appreciation could be given to those users that used this feature during its beta phase? Maybe even an update saying “All users who were involved in beta testing please comment before this date and you will receive X gift.” The gift could be something to help gain extra inventory slots/intuition (accelerated intuition?) for a short period of time or on a certain creatu?
17. 
    
18. 12. Expansion of exploring planets: It would be cool to be able to send creatu to explore specific areas of planets. I think this would really be something I’d be super interested in. Maybe 3 different areas per planet, each with a cool planet themed name (I’m not creative enough for that) where the percentages of finding certain items/eggs are different? I’m from atquati so maybe a button “Explore the Atqueen Reef” where you have a better chance of getting skaldyr/ draqua eggs and maybe an item like.. a chunk of coral (lol). We could even expand on that one book “The Desert on Atquati” and have that as a place to explore (maybe no eggs, but more items? I’m blanking on if there are any atquati creatu that can survive a desert... Tesuri?). You could even do another round of the book contest to write stories for these new explore locations.
19. 
    
20. 13. More items: Specific planet-themed HA items? A (forum) avatar you get the first time you explore a new planet? An avatar when you reach the intuition level that corresponds with 8 inventory slots (so 4 avvies, 1 for each planet)?
21. 
    
22. 14. Addition of story text: “While (creatu name) was exploring, they stumbled upon Palora who granted them an extra inventory slot for the duration of their exploration.” Or “While (creatu name) was exploring, they stumbled upon (someone) who cursed them to have 2 fewer inventory slots for the duration of their exploration.” (+/- inventory slot depends on that specific creatus number of inventory slots or could be random)
23. 
    
24. 15. Chance of finding seasonal/shrine eggs: OK I know this is a long shot as the way these eggs are found is an integral part to the Res economy, so I really do understand if this idea is shot down. BUT that being said, it would be really neat to have a 0.01% chance of stumbling upon a seasonal egg year round or a shrine egg. Or maybe an event 6 months after the seasonal egg release date where there’s 48 hours where there is a very small chance to stumble upon the egg while exploring? Though you’d definitely have people upset that they don’t belong to a certain planet when that happens. Like I know I would be a little put out that I don’t belong to Reiflem when the Iluvu would be briefly available in Reiflem explore on August 14th (if this were ever implemented)

Okay that’s all, sorry for my brain dump!! 

Edit one additional thought...

16. Would it be possible to introduce a new buff that gives some sort of benefit for exploring a creatu that has the planet’s blessing? That may be a pretty neat way to tie the shrines to explore.
