Can we have the colors that show up in the brief description for thunderbirds also show up in the probed description, please? As it is now, the color in the brief description (for example, "a blue thunderbird" or "a sparkling silver thunderbird") doesn't show up anywhere else. While this is far from mitigating any catastrophes, it would make thunderbirds much easier to visualize if we could see their color in the probed description as well, along with all the other details that differentiate them from each other.

Thanks!

Using IH will produce a list of matching objects for the room as well as a summary at the bottom stating "Number of matching objects: 243 (out of 1268 total)" Is it feasible to apply the same idea to II ?

She means the summary, yeah.
Kaia2010-11-30 22:15:21
Oh, I guess that wasn't clear, yeah. The summary - I collect things for sales (like esteem items) and I inevitably end up dropping my own and losing count because my eyes cross after counting 25 or so.

Let us tesseract to manses that are docked at the plane you're on.

I could get behind a summary for II

Wandering Merchants from each of the different villages, that can sell you trader bob grade items, found on different astrospheres, or planes. They can buy things they need from players, as well as sell.

... Why?

Also, how would it be determined what price/how many the merchant will buy?

Here's a simple idea.
How hard would it be to sort the who output?

Just as a flavor, I think. For example, they would respond to the prices of their own villages, sell cheaper goods relating to those commodities, yet be able to purchase some commodities (to a limit) that would be dropped off when they visit their respective village again. And maybe some denzins want to be adventurers when they grow up. What's wrong with that?

Not hard at all.

Here's another simple idea: Make it so Thirdeye functions as a no-Equi scry. It already does that, you just have to peer through the Who list(I.E., have a tiny script that'll gag the WHO except for the name you want.)

Thirdeye is blocked by gems of cloaking. Scry isn't.

This makes all the difference, especially off Prime.

So Kialkarkea's idea can be blocked by gems too.

This is starting to feel familiar. tongue.gif

Sorry, you posted immediately after!
Kiradawea2010-12-02 14:18:19
Is okay. I'm just amused by it.
