Some things

Post by wolfsword »

Some simple things that I think could be applied IG, might take little to no effort in coding (I think?)

-Blankets (You know we all need one, :P )
-Another kind of animal (Might be a bit hard, don't know..?) Such as:
*Chickens
*Another kind of fish?/Animal, IE, crabs near shores, or for the fish, pike, cod, bass. Maybe even shrimp!
*Crab or other small, edible animal.
*Cow that is able to be milked? (Or on normal cows, able to be shift+clicked with a bucket = milk, depending on farming skill? Or cooking skill?)
-The ability to drink more than just once to finish a drink in goblet. (Maybe three drinks from it?)
-Ability to use milk in cakes instead of buckets of water?
-Ability to make potatoes farmable, able to be eaten raw or cooked/'baked'
-Ability to mix dyes = 'exotic' colors. (Purple, orange, for a start?) And that same kind of colored shirts & trousers. Don't think this will be too hard to do.

Dunno, other ones too, but these are on the top of my head.

Yeah, same.. That's why I sort of kept them most in the 'Fairly simple, just needs graphix/color change, or a few tweaks'. Hell, I might even learn Java just to script some of this.

I had an entire fishing system concept written once - died when it needed graphics. You would have had tons of fish, and turtles :P

Possible - not too hard to code

Possible - not too hard to code
-Ability to use milk in cakes instead of buckets of water?
Possible - can be coded with one eye closed I think
-Ability to make potatoes farmable, able to be eaten raw or cooked/'baked'
We have taters IG?

We need graphics, otherwise it would be cool I suppose.

Raw potatoes have a mild steroid in them, and we all know what 'roids do!

The potato plant is toxic. It contains an alkaloid named solanine that appears in all the external parts of the plant. It is also found in the tender buds of the tubers during the germination process. Excessive ingestion of raw potato can produce gastro-intestinal, liver, as well as heart damage. Because it is a vegetable that contains a fair amount of starch. Because of the possible toxicity, it is best to avoid the use of raw potato.


tl;dr version
It's generally bad.
It sprouts, you die.

Um.. that says the plants and external bits (i.e. not the actual potato, which is under the soil) are bad for you. It says the raw potato is good for you.

And you just erased that bit too. But I saw it!

"Because it is a vegetable that contains a fair amount of starch, it has emollient properties. It can therefore be used externally to soothe the skin and useful for burns. It also antacid properties to help combat any gastric discomfort."

You missed: excessive ingestion of raw potato can produce gastro-intestinal, liver, as well as heart damage.

And

It is also found in the tender buds of the tubers during the germination process, and as far as I know, at the start it's not visible on the outside, just when it starts actually sprouting roots which is a bit after, so be careful :P


But hey, it could be a food item that has a chance to apply a slight poison? xD

Mommy always told me never to eat raw taters :(

nou nou nou...sweet potatos are heated, no? and nouuuuu i didnt bother to read awl of dat wiki schtuff. ooooooooooooon topicerruuuuuuu: yes blankets would be nice, chickens have allready been suggested, another kind of fish/more kinds of fish have allso been suggested before, dont know if the milk the cows part has been suggested before, but i like the idea, drink more from a goblet dont know if it blah blah, milk in cake dont know if blah blah, but would make more sence then using water really, eating raw potatoes would be more realisitic AND exotic dyes dont care. there you aaaare :)

I'm not really sure what more fish would really do, seeing as they're all the same once you cook them. Unless you're saying to make them different once cooked, cuz that'd be a good idea :P

Different fish = Different amount of fillingness?

And... is it true that there's goat's milk ingame? :O

On the raw potatoes, meh- make it only if you cook/bake them, then?
For the blankets.. Couldn't you just cut off the arms from the grey coat and wallah- a blanket? Seems the easiest to me, good rp item. Chicken.. I wish to see though, sadly. Imagine all the new dishes that'd end up :shock:

And for the fish, yes, I mean different kinds of results when you fish them, or being able to add them in stews and make a 'fish' stew. I was also going to suggest a larger variety of pies as well, but, my halfling is doing that alright by just rp'ing normal pies, so that's that..

I do wonder if they could do the 'exotic' colors though, fairly easy, isn't it?

Few realised until PO Spudrug pointed it out to me:P I told people like Alex etc. It also took me half a year at LEAST to spot that Nitram is Martin written backwards, although I can write both backwards and inverted. Nathan (PO Dominic) figured out the Gorf first I remember.. Good times xD

Nah, Salathe had known about Timrek the Gorf before we even played. I never noticed the sibanac thing, but I noticed the Nitram thing as soon as I found out his name was Martin :P.

Well im unsure about this... what would you do with it? equip it as a cloak? maybe if you have a cold you can cure it by wearing one

-Another kind of animal (Might be a bit hard, don't know..?) Such as:
*Chickens
Yeah thats cool, and you can use the feathers to make quills :)

*Another kind of fish?/Animal, IE, crabs near shores, or for the fish, pike, cod, bass. Maybe even shrimp!
Totally agree :) What about eel, shark, carp or even tuna :)

*Crab or other small, edible animal.
depents what other animals i suppose

*Cow that is able to be milked? (Or on normal cows, able to be shift+clicked with a bucket = milk, depending on farming skill? Or cooking skill?)
I do not know as i do not cook

-The ability to drink more than just once to finish a drink in goblet. (Maybe three drinks from it?)
-Ability to use milk in cakes instead of buckets of water?
