Could we get toggles for the xp counter and skill icons along with the option to use xp drops without needing data orbs to be on?

If you turn off those buttons by the minimap, to make the gameframe look more like its pristine 2007 version, you're also hiding the XP drops control button, so there'd be no way to turn XP drops off and on again.

Australian worlds would be neat too.

I'm sure. :) However you'll have noticed it's a big enough job getting the existing network to be more DDOS-resilient - expanding to Australia isn't going to help just now. Especially as RuneScape's found over the years that many Australian players got better connections to the USA than to any servers we hosted in Australia.

will they still be releasing the harder abyssal demon in the future?

Yes, there's lots of Slayer stuff we polled that hasn't come out yet. It doesn't mean we've quietly cancelled it just because it wasn't in the first batch of Slayer updates!

That boss is due in September.

Not quite sure if this a RS related issue, or could be OSBuddy. When ever clicking near the near side on the minimap is forces the map to point north.

We haven't released that feature yet. Perhaps the OSBuddy developers are working on it independently.

Where's the API for the Grand Exchange at?

Not sure. I'd understood the web team was making one. Might need some chasing up.

In fact I am aware that that's the bit you're interested in. However I had expected that you'd be okay with there being additional info on the screen at the same time. Clearly I was wrong.

Well, that info is available in Stats menu, offline sources, etc. I don't see it being relevant to the actual gameplay of staying in 100 BPM rhythm of RS.

There is "Off" option for progress bar but no such option for counter. I'd myself prefer just to see tracking features when hoovering over XP-orb.

Despite the negative feedback of a feature that seemed so obviously wrong/weird to me, I gotta say that this is still great update. Thank you.

Um... Nope, sorry, I don't understand what you mean by that.

Interesting. That might be possible, though it'd be kinda peculiar for players who've set the droplets to be in the middle or on the left.

Thank you. And naturally I'm sorry for making it so obviously wrong or weird to you.

Mod Ash, could we possibly get a 5 second option for the XP drop vanish? 3 Seconds feels too short and 10 seconds feels too long.

More options can be added.

Bear in mind that any dev time spent adding more options here will be dev time not spent on everything else players want. So it's worth considering whether you really want the extra feature you're requesting, or whether it'd be nice but not a priority.
