suggestion for Inns/Scribes

·320 words·2 mins

Ok here’s one for you. Since the mud seems to have some reasonably long stints without a crash most of the time now, how about placing a ‘box’ in each Inn (and maybe scribes as well) on each continent where every 10 minutes or so the Innkeeper/Scribe picks up any spellbooks/eq/whatever is left laying on the floor and puts it in the box.

This will cut all the spam you often get when arriving at an Inn/Scribe and basically keep the place tidy. I mean, Inns do have standards to maintain if they want to have a good reputation for prospective guests…

When you’re in the room, you can just ’look in box’ and ‘get xxx box’ for any items you might want.

Casting locate would still be as is, except instead of seeing

‘A flaming songbook is in The Scribe’s Shop.’ you would see

‘A flaming songbook is in a box in The Scribe’s Shop.’ or

‘A flaming songbook is in the Bal-Harbor lost property box’ or something to that effect.

Any comments/criticism?

Or make all (public) innkeepers rooms to be NODROP similar to Valk. Then designate a room for all drops to go. I.E. the Bar in Bal Harbor etc.

let’s make the boxes like those in resident evil…anything put into one box is able to be taken out of any box…

:twisted: :idea:

now THAT would be REALLY kewl ..or maybe not due to things like temp Lyme eq and choppers being continent-restricted.

any coders want to comment on this idea and the feasibility of it?

…thinks about smuggling problems and other bad uses of the ‘universal boxes’…

:twisted:

…drops a lit barrel of a mixture of oil and alcohol in the box, running out screaming: FIRE IN DA HOLE!…

and so on

Shallah, the innkeeper, looks into the box of lost property box, get curved scimitar and clumsy cut off her own head.

clap, clap

:roll:
