The problem with manses is that they can be changed way too often. Mudlet's most updated version, however, allows you to map, so get that if you like.
Ssaliss2011-09-10 11:17:45
Another alternative would be to allow people to map manses themselves. That way, if people want to keep an updated map of their manse, they can. If not, they can just ignore mapping it.
Sakr2011-09-10 13:28:34
But how about sharing that map, how would that work?

Clan help files, shared bound scrolls, a sigiled scroll at the entrance of the manse.

Let manses have maps. Otherwise we are going shove people into hundred room manses with monoliths everywhere for them to get lost in. We'll do it!


Who needs 100 rooms? Cleverly link a 20 room manse with monoliths and identical funhouse descriptions. If they start to get out, charge in with your diagram and realign everything. Of course, you can accomplish the same issue-able thing with a magical door.

Could even be done with 10 rooms and looped exits.

I can get lost in a 15 room manse. Or a 10 room if laid out correctly. sad.gif

Or you can just use a two room manse, put a reinforced door, a monolith, and a key sigil. Or use the Moondancer GM office with a monolith sigil as a time out for idiots (although you can PORTALS off a monolith, so they have to be at least level 21 idiots).

Have achievements for reaching 5k of something? Instead of from 1k to 10k, have a middle group of 5k creatures killed or influenced?

I did not feel it was a thing to be reported as a bug, because it works exactly as intended! And bugs are uh, things that don't work as intended? Question mark?


A bug is also anything not working as expected. When you do UPKEEP PAINTING it is checking the room because they did not allow it to continue, similar to how many items have been changed to be checked before whats in the room. Bug that you cannot target by number, and note this is stopping you from targetting something in the room. They MAY say it is working properly but it cannot hurt to check, worst they can say is its not broken.

No need to bug it.

o Arts Upkeep now allows you to specify a specific painting or statue, whether in your hands or in the room.

I would love an ability in Arts to write things on paintings (presumably on a plaque below the image). So folks could 'read painting' to find out more about it.

I would really, really like to be able to 'upgrade' my cartel at a gold cost, either as a one time thing, or a per slot thing up to a total of six slots.

I am by -far- more likely to buy upgrades to a cartel than buy a new one, because I like keeping similar designs all in the same place.

I am drunk with power. My every whim is made manifest !

Sakr2011-09-14 14:06:24
Make art and artisan more interconnected? Allow artisans to make frames for sketches and paintings, which would increase the lifespan a little bit?

Hmm, I've got an idea...

Make it to where when you are enchanting a cube, if a powerstone ends up with less than the required amount for a full normal charge, it still uses up the power on that powerstone... I get tired of having so many powerstones with 1, 2, or 3% Left.

Powerstones are used in some designs or for making certain items, and it doesn't matter how much charge is left. Just ask around if anyone needs empty powerstones. I'll usually take a few to make figurines with.

Jewelry can be melted and re-made for no cost. Repairing things is exorbitantly expensive. Reduce the cost of repairing jewelry to be more in line with mending?

Kata-on-the-fly. Right now you have to study and develop a kata (at no cost at all) before you can use it. I suggest being able to design and use a kata in a single line. Suggested syntax: KATA USE A1 A2 A3 MOD . It would make kata much more diverse, instead of having to create multiple forms that are rarely used.

I would just make it similar to the alias people have to make forms. I do not think you have been a monk because bodypart cannot be specified like that.

KATA FORM ] ]

It looks complex but after action 1 it is all optional.
