  • Does anyone have a description of any of the dragon-formed dragons from the recent events?
  • Brought up today:
    Why are the initial "assumed health" values for SSC set to 80% health, 60% assumedego, and 20% assumedmana?  This ends up with newbies getting murdered when hunting anything that blacks-out (like shadowhawks).

    That is exactly what I am referring to!  Thank you.  Do they run out of pages for tearing-off-purposes?  That ab makes it sound like they only allow for 10.
  • Wasn't there a notepad artifact that you could tear off a scrap of paper and give it to someone with text written on it?  Was that an auction-only-artifact?  I'm not seeing it in the ashop.  If I'm not overlooking it, adding it to the ashop mig…

    Furniture is flagged as indoors or outdoors.  You cannot build indoor furniture in outdoor rooms.  It's one of the design flags.  Toshiko basically wants to be able to put indoor furniture in rooms after applying the billowing w…
  • (Quote) The "You must have two" line occurs when both are injured.  Otherwise it specifies the single one that's hurt (at least, that's how it worked when I was playing with gars and sit/stand spamming after blackout ended).

  • Yep, still busted.

    SSC does not recognize:
    Your left leg must be working in order to do that.
    Your right leg must be working in order to do that.
    You must have two good legs to do that.
    Your l…

  • A while ago I filed a bug report about SSC not handling damaged limb symptom lines well at all, and I was told that it couldn't because the lines didn't indicate which limb was damaged/busted.  Is this fixed now?  I just tested and the symptom lines…

  • The skull already used the punt command, actually.  Not to say that consistency is a bad thing (I like it myself), but it is at least sharing a command with an existing beepbeep.

    You don't have enough reports already?
    Okay, challenge accepted.
  • Pretty sure I remember finding that the post was 2018 for it?  Let me look again...

    Announce 2856 is the one.  Mix of credit and gold in October of 2018.  Still, that was a long time ago!
  • Just doing auctions more regularly would accomplish what you are looking for; when they are rare, it means that both old and new players still want the same stuff, but the old players have big stockpiles that have not been burned up due to lack…
  • I've talked to you a bit elsewhere, but I'll give a few answers here too, not really in order.
    1) I like to think that Glom is friendly!  I can't speak for the other orgs so much, but I know that we're one of the more active orgs in t…

    It's not submitted.  It has existed ever since the customize command got implemented.  I was like "Ooo I can customize this vial!" and then I never did.  That's what I mean by "never went anywhere," it was on me, not you!…
  • *looks sadly at the customization for this golden vial that has been sitting here forever and never went anywhere*
  • Omni has an upkeep cost because regular Cult Omni has an upkeep cost; the cult version just uses cult essence instead of personal.  Note that this is not support for essence upkeep costs, just an explanation.  I don't think I have used the new …

    Jaspet can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you're misunderstanding him.  His suggestion reads to me as:
    1) Give a perk point every level instead of every 5 levels.
    2) Keep crits & weight at 1 perk poi…
  • It does feel like the numbers are not geared for the general player; personally I doubt I will ever get a third point.  I am not sure that it is worth coding in more options; might already have coded in too many, in fact.  It is nice to have so…
  • A bigger ally/enemy list rune.
  • Unretire the Great Rune of Iron Will, because it's still functional for aetherwill.
  • There's a huge difference between a text MUD and gathering in most MMOs.  In those games, travel time is actually a thing.  If you want to go gather, you need to run around- find new nodes / spawnpoints of things, keep running, stay actively ch…
  • Previously you said that Alliance Mechanics were on the table after the demi rework.  Is this still the case?  If so, are there any details?  How will it work in regards to the current alliance situation?
  • Followup question to one of Ixion's: Why do these "conflict quests" still exist (supernals, demon lords, avatars, etc)?  They are anything but conflict.  You have to do them when no defenders are around and it is just mob bashing / staying aliv…
  • The push for scarcity of commodities has significant gameplay repercussions, especially when some organizations have had essentially zero commodity income for RL months.  They are a basic prerequisite; without them you cannot really play the game, a…
  • It does not come across as whining for more rewards for doing nothing.  Celest has, up until the last couple of days, had a very low activity score percentage-wise.  Raising concerns about how that impacts the newbie experience and suggesting w…
  • Your CL is very busy with RL events but has been making an effort to be around at least.  I understand that you said you are having some approachability issues, but I would highly recommend at least shooting Aknarin an IC message saying that yo…
  • Reality slows to a crawl as the Fates begin to work upon the Tapestry of Life.
