  • - Add 'look self background' to the 'help background' helpfile (Now in-game!)
    - Change the odd strings on bandages ("a bandage torn from loose linen sleeves with cuffs that extend past the fingers", for example, which reads in a really weird way) to "a bandage torn from linen". Same idea, except "a bandage torn from" is appended with the type of fabric the garment was, rather than the garment's short string. (Now in-game!)
    - Add the Prestige flag to 'affects'. If you're wearing an item that grants prestige, you can see it in your affects. "Pixie is wearing a prestigious item." (Now in-game!)
    - If you're wearing a closed cloak that lacks a hood, have whatever is worn on your head be visible. (Now in-game!)
    - Add drunkenness and the stages thereof to affects/status. (Now in-game!)

    - Let us specify which item's trademark we're looking at. "look <item keyword> trademark", maybe.

    - Make note newness based on account rather than character, so if you've read a note it's marked as read account-wide.

    - If an indoor room has a window, you can check the weather through it.

Firstly. love the account-wide note thing... It would be handy especially when playing like 6 different characters.

I didn't know about the Look self background until staff told me like earlier this year I believe... maybe a reminder should be made as I don't think alot of people know it exists.

As for the Bandage bit, perhaps it could be something like adding custom endings when tearing the bandage? So like it would read a bandage torn from <Blank> with blank being whatever the players tacks on to the end of the command. So like 'a bandage torn from blue silk' for example.

I didn't know about look self background until two seconds ago! Nice! Actually, I didn't even know we could add backgrounds. I fail.

I am all for bandages being changed to either what Pixie or Voxumo said or even better, when you tear something into bandages, have it open for tooling so we can just change it rather than having to retool it.

The only reason I didn't suggest the tooling option, is because I would prefer to keep the fact it was torn from something evident. Afterall you have to destroy something to create these makeshift bandages. And if people could just tool them I doubt they would keep the fact it was torn from something evident.

I've raised a few of these with Az:

- Cloaks covering head items when not concealed
- Adding prestige and drunkeness to affects
- Fixing the strings on bandages
