Looking at the code, I don't see anything odd with the foodbeep code. > > Also, the poor halfling cannot carry very much weight, so has to resort > o eating carcasses... blech... in a dungeon crawl.

IIRC, carrying capacity is directly related to strength. Of course, halflings have a strength penalty, so that doesn't help. > I don't think that is true.

Which is maybe a decent question - the regen rate for Gaea is seen as an advantage. I don't know if the high food consumption rate was factored in as a disadvantage, or is an unintended side effect. And in some sense, having it as a granted ability from Gaea is a disadvantage, in that you can't turn it off. For other character, you can just take off the ring of regeneration and be back to normal food consumption. _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list crossfire@metalforge.org http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
