Because my 'opal' vials are mana, and my 'bloodstone' are healing, ect. So when I lose a bloodstone vial in decay, I can just buy another then spam 'refill bloodstone from healing' or at least I /could/ if it didn't register my first, refilled bloodstone as the one I wanted. Seems like it makes sense to do it differently.

One (rather clunky) solution is to store the vials in a list, and just parse that list when refilling. A lot of initial work, perhaps (and it requires some scripting knowledge), but it at least makes refilling easier.

CODE
You are wielding:
   staff38437 : a delicate crystal staff in your left hand.
You are holding:
"vial143588"  (healing)   a glowing bloodstone vial
"vial204916"  (mana)      a beryl vial
"vial205699"  (mana)      a glowing beryl vial
"vial208854"  (sanguine)  a beryl vial
"vial216101"  (bromide)   a beryl vial
"vial210727"  (melanch..) a beryl vial
"vial191120"  (mending)   an opal vial
You are wearing:
Number of matching objects: 7 (out of 24 total)


I do this, but the problem with items decaying makes buying new vials a pain. I'd prefer a simpler solution.

What I do is have an alias that does this:

refill ruby with healing
drop healing

And I spam that alias until all my ruby vials are filled, then pick them up and go on my merry way.

Or you could get potionlist, and obsessively keep your vials in order, so that it's easy to look at the list and see what you're missing, and fill the right ones.

The bromides, healing and mana sips are messed up.

I periodically will sit in my manse and pour vials into other ones until I get them all full so that there are no ends.

Fixed that when I noticed it.

Putting everything into the one vial design makes your inventory look less cluttered, but it makes it harder to know what you're sipping when. If you're going to obsess, do it right! biggrin.gif

Here's one that should be relatively simple: Make Divert divert the first mob that's being influenced, not just try to divert the first mob. For instance, someone's influencing guards and go link-dead. you should be able to just DIVERT GUARD, without having to DIVERT GUARD12345, DIVERT GUARD23456, DIVERT GUARD34567 etc.

Should be a rock command for hammocks. Or swing. Or something.

Pardon the dumb question, but how did you do this?? Did you have to drop them all and then pick them up one by one in the right order? or is there an easier way of doing this??

My current solution to this problem is that I have a colour coded trigger when I check my invoice, but this has issues when they decay, and refilling is still a pain. And even though my vials are all colour coded (so I can see the ones that are supposed to be Healing - because they are green) they are still all over the place in the list, I dont have all the healings together. This is what I would like to know how to do smile.gif

DROP 50 HEALING, GET 50 HEALING should do it, and so on with the rest. I don't think you need to do it one by one by one except when you're pouring to get them all even.

Can we get the number of paint palette applications used on a single tarot card included in each skill AB for tarot? It's so easy to forget and mismanage things.

Could we get a GMCP message for elevation changes? Or maybe just include that in a Room.Info message (but then send a new one when changing elevations in the same room)?

Edit : wa, nevermind. I was remembering a bug that split election, I guess.

If we ever going to revamp character creation, I propose following the style of Elderscrolls II: Daggerfall. Each storyline questions would effect your character with its strengths and weaknesses. Just saying.

They revamped the tutorial quite recently actually.
