What I found to be irritating about the material code was it made inventory management much more annoying. Specific example was Boots of speed. Instead of have (let's say..) a stack of 6 boots, you would see all individual boots because they were all made of different material (leather, snakeskin, etc.) So, only way to see that items were made of different materials is to have them show up individually in your inventory or item stack. On a side note.. As I recall, the intent of the original author was to deploy a questing system where a NPC would ask for something like a gold dagger and then the player would provide that to get a new item request (i.e., granite stone axe.) I personally liked such a concept, but not enough to really want to endure the issues it causes and mentioned above. So, unless some new ways to deploys this can come together, I would vote for removing this feature. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFOB4avhHyvgBp+vH4RArETAKCN1W9+ZiR6VWXgm4Bt3cmmeIPb+QCeImjl Af5fojNj+3v76pqBiveExnA= =V+4Z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
