[command] Transfer

Post by Glim » Sun Aug 26, 2007 8:36 pm

Hello,

Id like to suggest a command to move all of an item from one container to another. This would be mainly for large amounts of objects that you cannot use get all.item container for and would make it less tedious than having to type 60 times get item container;put item container.

So lets say you have 100 feathers you want to move from a bag to a pack.

Code: Select all

get all.feathers bag
Blah blah blah: you can't carry that many items.
Darnit, didnt work. Hmm, wish there was a faster way than having to get em out one by one. Oh yeah, the transfer command.

Code: Select all

transfer 100 feathers bag pack
You transfer 100 feathers from your bag to your pack.
And the day is saved! And yes... I got this idea after being stupid and emptying my spell pouch into my pack for the second time in a couple days.

*cough* Anyways, feedback is always welcome,

It's got my vote. Can't tell you how many times I've had the same problem.

"empty <bagname> <bagname>" already empties the contents of one bag into the other. Is that the same as what you want?

No, not at all. This is if you have a large amount of an item in one bag, and want to transfer it to another bag without having to move everything in the bag from one to another.

I like that idea!

As Glim I've emptied my stuffed spellpouch in different containers by accident and had to spend quite some time, picking things from one container into the inventory and then into the spellpouch.

It would reduce the spam of "get X bag" and "put X otherbag"

As a dwarf player, I support this. Many time I have to transfer one type of metal in a bag of several metal types and taking it out 5 or so at a time is a bit unnecessary.

Now that I've overcome my stupidity, I'll also agree firmly. It'll certainly make spellpouch management easier.

Incidentally, I hear they offer Spellpouch Management courses in university, nowdays.
