Script suggestion

Post by Ceir » Sun Jan 20, 2013 7:20 am

Here's an idea by a stupid player for stupid players. Hostlers and stableboys should say something when someone leaves the room while there's an item on the ground. I accidentally left Ceir's saddlebags on the ground a few days ago, and they're long gone.

If we are fixing stables, perhaps we could retroactively add an extra description to all stable tokens expressing which stable they belong to?

I know there are a few in Waterdeep and other cities that have this but not all areas have it. It would certainly be nice.

Wasn't that question posed before? If I remember correctly, something about some stables using the same token just renamed or something?

Well, assuming they use similar code to this:

Code: Select all

mpoload VNUM
mposet VNUM short {90}a bright red token
mposet VNUM long {90}A bright red token lies here.
mposet VNUM name iVNUM bright red token
I think you could just add another phrase to the program,

Code: Select all

mposet VNUM ed addline 'bright red token' {90}This bright red token bears the mark of the Red Token Stables in Waterdeep.
It would entail a ton of work to go around adding it to existing stables, though, as they say in the original topic:
viewtopic.php?f=77&t=14986

EDIT: Addressing the original topic of the post - it would be easy enough to code, I think, but the same thing applies, it would take too much time to add it to the stables.

I have been updating tokens as I edit existing stables, but I don't feel that it is a particularly good use of time to focus on this. We all lose a mount from time to time. (Yep, even me.) If you really get stuck then just ask or the application system and we will get you your mount or pet back.

I used to keep track of my mounts on notepad too.
