Arm balance in prompt

This has to be a quick one to implement but would help warriors tremendously:

CONFIG PROMPT ARMBALANCE ON

Changes that "x" in your prompt to "lrL" representing left arm, right arm, and legs, respectively.

Yes, just that.

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!

Yes!

I think this is a great idea, it's very annoying as is.

Could be useful. happy.gif

Change the letters around, but otherwise I agree.

lrL would be very hard to understand on some fonts.

Maybe, G for legs?

Works for me.

Gah, that's just so confusing to look at.. how about if it showed the x if you have both arm balance, then shows like... l- and -r and -- respectively.

4771h, 1791m, 3181e, 10p, 13800en, 16815w exkdb-
4771h, 1791m, 3181e, 10p, 13800en, 16815w el-kdb-
4771h, 1791m, 3181e, 10p, 13800en, 16815w e-rkdb-
4771h, 1791m, 3181e, 10p, 13800en, 16815w e--kdb-

I think that is much easier to read. And legs can be left out for now, no?

Or two Xs:

exxk-
ex-k-
e-xk-
e--k-

Right now none of the other flags are replaced with dashes if they're absent, though it might be nice if they were, so while I see the merit in that, I think the "lrg" option is more compatible with what everyone's already doing with their prompts.

Yes they are. When you use balance or equilibrium, it is replaced by a dash, so it would make sense for arm balance to work the same way.
Shiri2005-02-01 23:23:22
My prompt just went from exk-
to xk-

when I did INVOKE RED. Are you -sure- it replaces it with a dash? There ain't one in mine.

I don't get dashes replacing equilibrium or balance on mine either. That dash is always there and denotes the end of the prompt.

But I like this idea. It would make life easier for a small script I've been wanting to write, too... smile.gif

Eh, my bad again, spacing out, thinking of other realms. Here is my Imperian prompt.
