Hello.
Been playing some lately, and I noticed a few things I'd like to change.
I think the following commands should be made DM-only, if needed adding the
player to affect:
- fix_me
- forget_spell
- printlos
I think the rationale for forget_spell is that if players learned a spell they
don't want to know for some reason, they should be able to forget it. But I'm
not quite sure why they would want to (try to keep the spell list shorter).
But I imagine it could be used for abuse - forget spells that you fine
spellbooks for, so that you can re-learn the spell and get exp?
Other ones seem reasonable.
Moving in diagonals should cost more than moving horizontally or vertically ;
ok, that one is potentially a major change, but it makes it faster to move in
zigzags than plainly straight...
It shouldn't be faster to move in zigzags than straight - you are covering
more distance, but going NE, NW, NE, NW, NE, NW should not get you due north
any faster than if you just did N, N, N, N, ...
The one danger I can think about changing this is if it affects other things,
like spells. This could first of all perhaps result in odd spell propogation
(may depend on the spells, though I think in most cases the spell just moves to
next space and ignores any cost to do so). But this could cause odd effects to
the players trying to move out. For example, a character may be able to outrun
a spell effect if they are heading due north and the spell is also heading due
north, but may not be able to outrun it if they head NE (since each space is
costing more movement) if the spell can also move NE without that extra cost.
I'm not really sure, but something to think about/investigate.
