Deposit/withdraw issues

Post by Trillarel » Wed Dec 05, 2012 4:31 pm

At Nantlel's, Menzo.

Typing 'deposit plat' or 'deposit 53 plat' results in:

You deposit 920 copper coins.
You deposit 75 silver coins.
You deposit 53 platinum coins.

This is not what I want to accomplish by typing my command. I want to deposit platinum coins only, not everything.

***
Typing 'withdraw silver' doesn't work and prompts for a number. Maybe it could be made so that it'd withdraw all silver coins?

While banks can change coins of any denominations for you, they are not storing your coins as individual objects. Like a real bank, if you submitted a certain amount then they would only record that amount, not the subsidiary amounts of different types of currency you used to submit it. e.g. If I give in 100 platinum in copper coins then they merely note that I have deposited a value of 100 platinum, not that it was 100 platinum worth of copper coins.

I get it. But if withdraw prompts for a number, shouldn't deposit prompt for it too? Currently, it stores every coin I have on hand...

Well, I typed 'deposit plat'. With no number, and it deposited everything. Shouldn't it prompt for a number, if 'deposit 1 plat' works?
