Title: more suggestions :-/
Post by Lavalamp And Seito on 12/27/03 at 03:59:42

I dont know if any of these have been braught up before, but ill try anywayz seeing as JLH is still working on updates

1) When theives are covert, i rekon that holding a torch in your inventory should increase the chance of you spotting them/there could be a command like /torch "You wave your torch around the room and find nothing." or " ..... and find (crit),(crit) and (crit) hiding in the shadows", of course this should only raise the chance, not be like vision or anything, but say 1/10 times you use /torch it finds coverted theives, possibly taking up stamina if ya wanna.

2) (this idea will most prolly be flamed, but ill try anyway) maybe there could be a command that makes you unpkable(toggleable of course, and turned off if you attack), but would have an exp degradation eg. if you have /togglenopk on, you cant be killed, but the exp you get is 1/5 or something. or maybe there could be something like take half damage from pkers(much like Subdue), and have the exp you get halved.. this would of course upset the pkers, but make the trainers happy(i guess).. or maybe a configureable rating like /togglenopk 2/8, so you take 20% less damage, and only get 80% exp. this idea i just thought of then, so more work is needed on it of course

3) When big groups of parties goto the desert or the museum and they want the gold they make split up, maybe there could be a command like /splitpartygold that the party leader uses to automatically split up all the gold that all the crits are carrying.. just a thought, because ive been on quiet a few trips where ppl were complaining about how they couldnt be bother doing /calc because it was late where they were, or whatever.. also, this would eliminate ppl saying they have 1,000 gold when they have 10,000gold

4) Ill think of this as it comes to me

anyway tell me what ya think, and ill add some more soon :)
cheers,

EDIT: thought of another one when i clicked post, so its been added :)

1) not keen on
2) no

4) no

1. If it it existed it would HAVE to use stamina otherwise I could type torch 10 times in a row which is very easy (recall key) thus and would defeat the purpose of having a chance of effectiveness. The idea makes sense, but for game balance I don't believe it would work.

2. Idea has been brought up. People could just toggle that when someone's going to pk them or toggle it back on and such. I really don't feel like explaining it, but it wouldn't be beneficial to add overall. The idea that you can choose your own fate is kinda bad. "I don't feel like dieing right now so I'll enable that command."

3. Not necessary.

the third idea would be good for a couple reasons and this is why it isn't gona happen the bigest reason its a good idea is then ppl who are traning would spilt there gold amonst there alts not having to worrie about loosing it all in 1 pk... other theing is if the leader did do such a command then they would have to add it so u automatily give to leader and leader then automaticly gives out the gold wich would get confusing after a while becuse you would want it all to happen right away but then you would have to split it up so the command only effects gold u get after the comand is typed other whise there would be a redundent cycle of giving gold to the leader and that being slpit agine and agine...

savie?
