Southern mini-smob chain

Post by Mer » Sat Apr 02, 2022 6:17 pm

I think a spade should respond to spade.


A Mended Farmhouse
New wooden shingles have been used to replace their old and rotten
counterparts. A fresh layer of paint has been added and the roof has been
repaired. Some new furniture has been added and the building has been
thoroughly cleaned of cobwebs. While not a luxurious home, it will
definitely provide shelter in its new condition.
[ obvious exits: E ]
The corpse of Culyn Sumner is lying here.
A young man stands here, eyeing you with distrust.

A little girl plays here.

* HP:Wounded SP:Strong MV:Fresh > exa corpse
It is the corpse of Culyn Sumner.
When you look inside, you see:
corpse (here) :
a wealth of gold crowns (52)
[2] a sheet of paper
a pair of heavy leather boots
plain brown pants
a wide leather belt
a tarnished shortsword
a brightly emblazoned shield
a high-collared coat
a dark red shirt
a spade
a lantern

* HP:Wounded SP:Strong MV:Fresh > g spade corpse
There doesn't seem to be a spade in the corpse of Culyn Sumner.


* HP:Wounded SP:Strong MV:Fresh > g shovel corpse
There doesn't seem to be a shovel in the corpse of Culyn Sumner.

* HP:Wounded SP:Strong MV:Fresh > g thing corpse
You get a spade from the corpse of Culyn Sumner.

Just a quirk of generic quest retooled items, is a lot of quest items that don't respond to anything in their description, just "thing" or sometimes "clay".

The pickaxe on the northern smob chain responds to pickaxe. Is that because it's an actual item in game also? Why can't the spade be a real item. Wonder what the benefit is.

The pickaxe is an actual item, used for mining. My guess is its simpler to have retooled items for quests rather than creating one off things, but not actually sure :p

Mostly this. Although, it’s easier than it used to be.
