The quest objective is to help a certain NPC find a missing object, that's what my char agreed to do. After finding the object and proceeding to final steps I suddenly receive a ready-made line "X listens to your story" and find my char spilling its friend and ally's whereabouts to X, with me having absolutely no means to prevent or stop it. Honest, it feels like being godmodded by the quest system and is awfully disappointing, to say the least. It also clashes with the general idea of quests being done ICly.

Dear Devs, please add a "not squealing" option, something like "I've just found it somewhere" and let the player deal with one of the main ingame alignments (Law) according to that player's RP. The way it is done now, it's not C&C, it's M&C, having to bear with consequences of the game mechanics, and somehow it doesn't feel right… at all.

(Edited for clarity.)

Since there is bronze (and more and more people work with it), and there is also zinc besides the tin to possibly combine with the copper - make brass available.
What other use was there for zinc anyway?
The actual mix should be similar to bronze, with zinc in place of tin to go along the copper.

Would also be great if there were finally possibilities to craft something out of those alloys…

When an npc talks the volume of the music ect makes it hard to hear them. Lets try setting all volume to 20% or so and see how that effects it.

NPC in random spawn zones often spawn in mid air.
It would be nice if they could be hidden until they hit the ground.
Don’t send the NPC pos info to the client until it has stopped falling down?

You already mentioned that the former “Dweomer detection”, which only vaguely returns a possible enchantment of a weapon, is rather useless as there are also buffs which are not at all obvious regarding stats and skills.

Not to waste the spell in general, I wonder if it was possible to implement instead that a similar one could be used to detect the presence of natural resources. Depending on some experience level, possibly in combination with another glyph (e.g. Earth, Animal, Tree), it could enable the caster to only vaguely detect presence of areas in a more or less close range where mining, fishing, harvesting, etc. (generic type) might be possible (”You feel that harvesting could be possible here.”), up to a more detailed feeling that specific resources are probably in some vague but graduated distance (”You feel that fishing for carp could be possible just next to you.”).

Of course, any new spell could be created as well.

An newbie in the tutorial brought up this idea, and I like it a lot:
It would be nice if the char creation provided a clickable link or a pop-up window to the naming policy.

Make an option that allows a player to make the loot of a corpse public if they do not want it. May not apply to some corpses, and could be used to make other corpses auto-public.

It is only partially helpful to estimate if an opponent is more or less stronger than my own char, as long as I don't estimate its defensive qualities too. I would like to see a pair of chances to get hurt by it, and chances to be able to hurt it. Especially since some oppoments are so well armored that even "Extraordinary" quality crafted weapons won't do any damage as long as the character has only average weapon skills. And it is quite vital to estimate the chance of breaking the armor before starting a fight. Even if the opponent is "about as strong as" the character, it is not just risky but suicidal if the opponent is the only one which has any chance to hurt.

This is most limiting when trying to juggle multiple containers (such as the furnace and the stock casting) at once.

It would be cool if players could buy bookshelves like the ones in the library. Rather than the player trying to set all the book items on the bookshelf that can be bought in Winch right now and making it look as if the books are on the shelf in the proper way the same dwarf could sell the shelves that look like the ones in the library. It would hold books like a container.

FR by Vakachehk:

I have an idea for mounts which will need some changes to some maps.
For Rivnaks (maybe Drifters too) having stables in which without a ring you may summon them, and dismiss them, without any skill of any ring needed, maybe a tria fee of like 50trias every summon/dismiss (of course there's the obvious issue you un-mount and leave your Rivnak somewhere, either the game automatically dismisses it or it is able to be stolen via a player, or a mechanical guard comes and takes it back to the stable or whatever). Using your Ring of Summon Familiar you can use the skill Empathy to dismiss/summon/etc, anywhere at any time.
Also I was thinking about the skill 'Riding' maybe this could be trainable and used in combat while on your rivnak?

The grill in Reffitia's kitchen in Brado's tavern doesn't behave like other items in the kitchen: The preparation table, for example, is selectable and has a label. The grill is not selectable, and it has no label. One can interact with the grill (e.g., store something in it) just as with the preparation table by right-clicking it. But the grill is much harder to identify, since it has no label.

just a idea for a simple rp command. entering /playdead will play the death animation and leave your character imobile similar to the sit command but you will be lying down instead. this can be usefull in roleplay where you are injured but not actually dead or if you want to role play your character going to sleep. entering /stand will cancel both /sit and /playdead. in later versions of the game perhaps this can be also be used to fool the less intelligant monsters like ulbernauts rats and some of the bugs into giving up the chase and loosing interest. i think it would be benificial to have a way to roleplay being wounded or dead without having to actually go to the death realm. say for example your character was killed in a roleplay setting you could use playdead to have a open casket funeral complete with a body that will not dissapear after a minute or two.

i am not sure how easy this would be to acomplish but i suspect you could duplicate the existing sit command and just change the animation called

seeing that furnature is one of the heavest item types in the game, redecorating guild halls can become tedious and god forbid things get cluttered it is not possible to eaisly move them to storage. my request is that typing /storage will work inside a guild hall as if you were targeting a storage npc. just for convienance sake.

there are two libraries in the game one run by jayose in hydlaa and the other a smaller collection of books run by londris in the death realm.

one of the main complaints about planeshift is the lack of information about the game. both of these libraries contain information for ic use but at the same time the books are locked into their shelves and cannot even be coppied unless a player spends the time to manually enter everything into a text file and upload it to a blank book.

my idea is to share the information by adding buy and sell catagories to jayose and londris that match the bookshelves in the library and contain copies of the books stored in each. basically have them sell copies of the library books that you can take with you and share with your friends or even put in a guild hall for easier access.

in all it makes perfect sense that a man who sells blank books would have the resources to copy and sell the important guides and informational books stored in the library

Hi,
it would be nice if you could lend/rent your mount to other people. This could be made with a dialog box that appears when someone wants to /mount the pet (”Foo wants do ride your pet NameofThePet, allow?”), similar to challenges/trades. If this is implemented there should of cause be auto-accept/deny.

It would be useful if the Option-Window also had an option to change the label-colour for people on ones' buddylist. This would especially be useful when there are a lot of players around, but it would make it easier to spot buddies in general as well.

I really like the sewers in Hydlaa, and I think it’d be cool if the other cities (Ojaveda and Amdeneir, mainly) had something like that. I also think it’d be cool if the Hydlaa sewers had a couple more openings, and maybe some intentional service entrances instead of just cave-ins with ladders… And maybe an entrance/exit in the East? Then my Rogue-like character could travel by sewers more, which would be totally awesome.

Are you guys planning to add some more sewers eventually?

When a player character is within the interaction range of an NPC, a mark (label) of some sort should appear above that NPC if they are offering some new or repeatable quests (! not some information for those already running !) for that particular character at that particular moment.

Should be optional as a turn-off or turn-on, depending on the default chosen by designers. In any case, and as with any other label, players should retain the option of not seeing it, if it spoils their fun or ruins their immersion somehow.

The reason for this request: drastically increased amount of questing chains ingame, and the absolutely unhealthy and immersion-breaking amount of mouse-clicking on the same NPCs the game now requires.

Noticing a sign above someone's head is OOC, of course, but clicking a mouse button on someone's model, or getting an aggressive red "…has no quest information for you" line floating in mid-air is equally OOC'ish.
On the other hand, seeing no mark above someone's head would cause neither irritation nor disappointment (while futile mouse-targeting and mouse-clicking, when done repeatedly, invariably produces both of those negative effects).
The marks would also provoke reasonable curiousity about available quests, hopefully enticing new players into doing more of them.

I know this request is somewhat of a long shot, but assuming that the engine is going to be considerably revisited this summer, I decided to submit it anyway.

[Edited for clarity, and also to separate it more from PS#4798. That older one would 'make the game easier' indeed, while what I suggest would only eliminate excessive mouse actions.]

I just did this quest, and it turned out to basically be “Give Trasok 100 tria so he can explain what you should already know if you have the book.” It has no reward other than a few Crafting Association points, which is pretty much worthless. Could you guys either remove this quest or make it give some real rewards? Thanks…

I would like it if you could set the default reaction to casting a spell or being attacked. I find it quite annoying to automatically be set to fully defensive when I cast a spell. I also find it annoying that when being attacked by a group of mobs your target focus jumps to whichever one hit you last.

When I cast electrotouch I want to hit my opponent and not change my stance. generally whenever I cast anything in melee I want to keep my previous stance.
When I am in a pile I want to kill what I am fighting before I start on another one. If I want to fight a different one I can so choose manually. It is also annoying that you often jump to a different mob before you are able to loot what you have just killed.

It would be great if there was a section to set these in the options.

In the case of electrotouch I tried to add /attack normal to my shortcut but it was processed and discarded before the spell finished casting. I appreciate you probably don’t want long chains of commands to be processed in turn as it could lead to botting, otherwise I would ask for one command to finish processing before the next is considered. Still it would be nice to repair all my armor with one keypress instead of 5.

When the GSoC was successful enhancing the tribe code, it could be interesting to create one or two of Kormi which try to avoid approaching players but stay together.

That may require organising a witch hunt / drive hunt as strategy, which may support grouped activities.

I would find it extremely useful if I could select from 1, 5 and 10 amount when shift clicking a stack of raw materials. This would allow me to improve the efficiency of smelting by picking enough material to cast into stocks of the various types. I could then dump a stack of molten ore into the caster and shift click it to spread out the ores into castable portions. obviously the 5 and 10 amounts are for casting stocks from precious and non precious materials.

It would be useful for this to only apply to molten ores in the furnace as there is no need for ingot/stock to be smelted in these particular numbers.
It might be also useful in a forge or other crafting container to have the ability to set to an arbitrary amount when processing ingots or stock for weapon/shield/armor parts.

Perhaps instead of overloading the shift click in this way using the alt click instead would work but this might cause a problem for Apple type computers.

Changed task description to clarify request.

I would like it very much if crafting were to be redesigned more like combat. Instead of one action that takes many seconds to complete and generates only one practice or experience reward make it so that each hammer blow is considered and eligible for a reward. For example at level 10 it takes me about two minutes to turn 12 heated ore into 4 shield handles and I get one practice point and some experience at the end of that time. Under my proposed change it might take just as long but each hammer blow on the ingots would receive a success chance roll that would increment the percentage done. A series of low rolls would result in a failure, either junk metal or very low quality handles and a series of high rolls would result in faster time and/or higher quality handles. This would be analogous to hitting a mob until one of you is dead.

I believe this would be more fair in the long run and if it would seem to make great quality items too available the chance to succeed could be reduced.

Not sure if this was adressed but I have a pile of quest items, that after the whipe Of quests Im not sure what I need to keep for Quest trees, or what I can get rid of. Trying to clean out my inventory/Quest items.

I Haven’t really tried to find a spoiler site that lists quest items and what they are for, or even if one exists

I would like to see an Auto Guard system of some sort

I recently Made a mini game on PS and went to a GM event to have things Engraved but im running into A problem that if I somehow lose connection I would be subject to an OCC Robery of these items, And they are food Items So someone could pick them up, Eat them, And log off. While im still trying to log back in. weather it be from an enemy or A fake Alt.

Not only that but I placed a book on the buildboard to look for a guard to help me guard the display, a couple hours later it was gone. A player shouldn’t have to ask a GM everytime they want to place a book…. Ask Any GM and im sure they will agree with that!

ICly I could put a spell on something or report it to the guards, but these might have little effect other then a sure solution.

I will list some solutions, umm… Tell Me what you think? :)

1. Create A spell For Players To Lockdown there own Items/Command (time period Has no meaning Do to Bad weather that lasts hours)

2. Lol I donno… Number 1 sounds like the only solution Or all the others tye into it. I’ll Try to think of more and post them in comments

The next day I hear people in Gossip channel talking about someone taking a book so Its effecting All players

Currently when an NPC doesn't have a quest for player, they essentially ignore the player. This can be bad because:

1) Sometimes (e.g. the circle way quests) this comes across as a bug since the player has been directed to talk to the NPC by another.

2) It's not always (in fact generally not) a realistic behaviour from a charactization PoV.

3) The chain quests are now very long and not obvious, so players have no idea what to do next.

4) It may be something else besides more quests that is necessary. How are players to know?

I think this should be changed, and propose the following dynamic as a possibility:

A "sociability" metric would be calculated for each interaction between player and NPC based on:
factions, prerequisites required for quests, and a base number assigned to each NPC. This metric will indicate how well-disposed the NPC is towards giving quest info the player at this time. Depending on this metric (lets say a number from 0-5) the NPC could say something (or ignore the player if the number is 0). The higher the number, the more useful and specific is the response.

Some characters are grumpy by nature and will almost always ignore people or give gruff responses (like now). Many are just typical and will offer canned default responses, expect that for the higher metrics these will hint that they will have something for you later. Ideally the highest metric will look up who gives the pre-requisite quest and direct you there.

Each quest could specify overrides for any of the responses.

I would like to be able to maintain my buddy list a bit better by adding extra info.

I use the list as many to also locate enemies. But the list gets longer and longer so I would like to add additional info to it. Like the guild when met etc.

I think that many of the newly “explorable areas” will go unnoticed by people because the only indication, the system message is lost between so many others.

Why not have an on-screen notice about reaching such a spot, especially now that those notices are optional anyway?

I would like to have the option to buy back item(s) i sold to a npc as precaution for accidental sales.
Its a common feature in other games and would fit PS very well too.

Questions for implementation:
- Should the list be global or npc specific? (buyback only where you sold it)
I tend to make it npc specific as it makes sense and would prevent abuse (e.g. for transportation).

- Add a timer how long the buyback of a sold item is aviable? Its probably easier to add and lighter on ressources to keep a fixed global item amount then adding a timer.

- How many items should be stored to be aviable to buy back? In my opinion a global maximum of 10.

- Should there be an additional fee for buying an already sold item back? I’d say it would make sense. The NPC-buy price of the particular item could be used, since the calculation is already implemented.

- How does it fit into the UI? It could be added in the BUY-from-npc list of the particular NPC. It would only show up when there is something aviable to buy back, similar to how the SELL-to-npc list handles it now.

Any thoughts or ideas?

I must say that this quest is quite disappointing. After a promising and very good beginning the whole story is cut short in an odd way. I think the plot would deserve some development as the beginning is really good.

I have a 6950, running the game at absolute max(custom) settings(minus fullscreen, it crashes), and the framerate is ~130fps(see corner, I had limiter on). I think the game has room for some graphics bumps on the “highest” settings. It would also be a good idea to future proof this game. The 6990 is about twice as good as mine or so, and who knows what year 2014 will have in store? At max settings, I think it should run on the fastest graphics card at about ~12-24 fps.

Now I know some people will be like: “How much did you spend on that computer?” and the answer is: $950.
So yes, normal people could use better graphics. I’m not some crazy uber geek with a $6000 computer(just a normal geek).

Possible additions:
Bump mapping. Cheap way to make things appear more 3d.
Super AA (draw at double resolution, scale down, future proof)
Voxel models/textures.
Another lightmap model: make a second screen, this one is an additive screen, each object reflects light to the second drawing board according to the laws of color (additive, then multiply) so for example, a candle would be yellow on the emitter lightmap, but a chair pitch black. Then after being lit by the candle you preform additive to the chair’s lightmap, and multiply it by the texture of the chair. A third map could be added for reflectivity, but I don’t know if that would be easy since I don’t program graphics.
Better textures.

A book is saved on the local disk with the custom title entered while writing its content. This is very inconvenient if the book has a quite verbose title, then the filename is just as verbose, and if you want to load this text into a copy of this book, you need to type exactly the same book title into the loading filename dialog. Or you need to know where books are located outside the game and rename the saved file there.

I'd like to be able to specify a brief filename to save a book to. The filename dialog may be pre-filled with the suggested filename based on the book title, but I'd like to change it before saving, if desired.

An "Undo" button on the new music writer that could go back at least one step would be very helpful. Thanks!!

Currently the GUI is one major flaw of Planeshift in my opinion, it makes it look worse than it deserves. A few examples:

• Just try to play the tutorial on a 15 inch laptop (1366×768). As soon as you need to open up the inventory most of the screen is covered, you can’t even close the window because the top right cross is out of screen. I needed multiple tries to find a spot on that window to be able to drag it down and close it finaly.

• We now have channels. But the new basic chat gui hides it by default. New Players with a new installed client don’t see it. A lost chance to show them there are people online actually.

• The possibility to reduce the amount of tabs in the chat window is great but is also a pain in the a.. if every new guildmember needs to be guided through the processs of enabling the guildchat, even a restart is needed. Why not make this tab pop up if someone is in a guild…if the guild joins an alliance make this tab pop up. If not these two are hidden by default?

• Playing this game now for around 5 years I think and at least I have the impression we get with every single release new commands to be used in shortcuts. Thats great, for advanced players…for new ones it is confusing. IMHO its time to take a breath and review them, sort them in order of importance and decide which should be used in the gui and how. Can’t remember how often I heard the question: “How do you mine ores”. A ‘logical’ way could be that you rightclick your character and get it as option (well now there is “introduce yourself”, does it do something?) when the rockpick is equipped, is the fishing rod equipped you fish as option. Also summoning your pet and mount is only possible via commands. The described way could make these also more accessible. (There are also illogical flaws, if mounted you can unmount after rightclick, but you don’t get the mount option when righclick on your mount)

• Think about if some can be combined into one command. We ‘use’ the riveter, anvil etc. Why do we /dig or /fish and not /use the rockpick or fishing rod. I can only think thats a leftover from when we had to /dig iron etc explicit.

Enough for now, hope you guys have enough time to think about it.

it would be nice for bards if they had hats where passers-by could throw some tria in. The hat item would serve as a money container as well as a piece of clothing. The advantages to just throwing tria on the ground are that people can’t just steal the money and it would look nicer.

Client recieves plain text data regarding many things configuration:

<traits><trait id=”10” next=”0” loc=”FACE” mesh=”308” mat=”321” tex=”322” shader=”“/><trait id=”346” next=”0” loc=”HAIR_STYLE” mesh=”328” mat=”0” tex=”0” shader=”0.63,0.32,0.17”/><trait id=”382” next=”0” loc=”HAIR_COLOR” mesh=”0” mat=”0” tex=”0” shader=”0.52,0.45,0.17”/></traits>

It would be better to handle the data this way:
compressed server side
stored compressed
sent compressed
client recieves compressed
client decompresses uses and stores on disk.

compared:
plain text - 1,1k
tar.gz - 0,4-0,5k

Could it be possible to add server version info (and possibly aso recommended/required minimal client version) to the server status page, i.e. to http://planeshift.zeroping.it/index.php?page=about_page for zeroping server? It could help to determine easily whether the update is required/recommended without need to start pslaunch when you don't use it to load the client.

There are numerous (at least dozens) complaints in the forum that (especially under Windows) the errorlog.txt contains only uninteresting default errors which are not at all critical, but misses really useful and critical entries instead.

The whole “error console” concept is nonsense for Windows users. Windows builds don’t output anything useful in the console they are started from, and this would be the only console where output could be redirected to files.

If you call the client with the parameter “–console”, a new console is opened, but this one can’t be redirected with “>” or “2>”, you would have to mouse-select as much as you can keep in its history. Most PC users will not know enough about Windows to tweak this console window, maybe not even know how to select and copy from it. On Windows 7 it is even worse, when the client crashed, the new console is nearly disabled, so you almost cannot select and copy text from it after a crash.

Request for to list additional Items at the Quest Description.

I would like to have the Items aligned to the related Quests in the Descriptions to get a better Overview and some more Clues in Quests. The descriptions right now are a bit spare, my request is like this

Quest Description
XxxxX ask you for This (to go there).
(Where at some Quests the Place should obviously dont revealed.

But mainly:
Quest Items:
xxxxxx
xxxx
(needed: )
xxxxxxxx
xxyXxx

It’s very easy to miss tells, greetings and etc. For example if I talk with NPC, NPC tab in chat selected. Other char comes and tries to start dialog with me. As I read what NPC says, I miss blinking in the Main tab, so I ignore that char. As for RP, it seems that I’m very impolite because ignoring other chars. Adding popup for messages addressed to me solve this problem and I can immediately(if I want) reply to char.

My suggestion(technical background):

• on each command like <CMD> <TO_PERSON_NAME> generate event with message(tell, greet, etc.)
• this message shows in the main view like other notifications
• this popups can be toggled off in settings

I would like to see 2560×1440 added to the list of monitor resolutions in the launcher.
For example:

Index: src/pslaunch/pawslauncherwindow.cpp

   }
   else if(ratio == "16:9")
   {

       resolution->NewOption("1920x1080");
       resolution->NewOption("1366x768");
       resolution->NewOption("1280x720");

Several players of old characters who had a Groffel as pet before the quest wipe, and have to redo the pet quest, are unsatisfied that they don’t get a Groffel again, but a Yulbar instead. See: Status of Our Old Pets

May be that Yulbars didn’t exist at all when they got their pet.

May be that Yulbars are somehow preferred now, or there are just no complaints about Groffels so there is a bias about it.

Would it be possible (without extreme efforts) to ensure that redoing this quest creates the same pet race as before? Or would it be possible in cases of old characters redoing the quest after years that they are allowed to chose the race — for emotional reasons?

I’m a new user and I just had a very frustrating experience, so I want to propose an improvement.

I requested a guild mate to craft me some chain armor, and when I got it done I picked the Arm piece i was wearing and tried to exchange by the new one. By the gods, the quality-50 armor merged with the quality-300 one and I got two quality-175 armors. Without any confirmation.

I think the merge-on-stack system is fine for many crafting situations, but merging armor stats is a unexpected one. I fail to see why one would want to merge a higher armor with a much lower one. This doesn’t even make sense: if you mix water and herbs it’s ok that you get an infusion, but you can’t mix a chain mail with another one to instantly get two different ones.

I requested a GM to revert the stats and he said that this is the same situation as when one sells or gives away an item by mistake. I think it is not the same thing. This is not a mistake; it is common to exchange items in the inventory to organize or save space, and having these “side-effects” in place can make a simple inventory management a surprisingly bad experience for new users like me. :(

TL;DR:

1. Please review if it really makes sense to merge armors or weapons. I don’t see the use for it, and it sounds illogical, but probably I’m missing something.

2. Please consider adding a confirmation to actions with clearly bad side effects during inventory management, to avoid the frustration, specially for new users.

3. Please consider adding a toggle/checkbox to the inventory to turn on/off automatic item merging (disabled by default to avoid sad surprises like mine).

Thanks for all the hard work, guys. :)

Instead of directly opening the book copy text, it would be nice if a book showed a regular info window first. Title, the authors name, and generic book description. If a Read button were provided, that then opened the window with the book copy text, perhaps an event could be generated so there could be read and unread books in ones inventory. Being able to carry and inspect an unread book perhaps gives some interesting quest possibilities.

Any way to get MyPlane running on HTTPS? I am thinking before someone has a problem. Not positive on the category on this one, thanks.

I was just wondering if an in game log viewer could be implemented. I don’t know how to minimize and I have to quit my game every single time I want to check my logs, also it’s useful. And makes so that new players don’t have to go around, wondering how the hell they can solve a quest, when they forgot some crucial information.

The random weapons naming system is one of the excellent features of PlaneShift, and crystals have always been iconic to PlaneShift. Different varieties of mineral crystals produced at the mine sites. Some descriptors that would indicate quality on the crystals, like: Smoky, cloudy, occulted, clear, milky, flecked, fractured, et cetera. Smoky sapphire, occulted Ruby, et cetera. These could indicate grades of quality. Perhaps there should be a chance to pull extremely unique crystals of magical quality with two or more modifiers. I would not be surprised if this was already thought of, but I wanted to put it up here while it was in my mind.

It happened to me twice already that I bought a good weapon for tens of thousands of tria, to then find out I need a lot of stats to equip it. And not only can’t I equip it, I don’t know whether it’s worth training for it either because nothing tells me how many more levels I need.

The game shows the effects (damage, speed) and the stats increases/decreases can be looked up in a book in the museum by analyzing the name. Could a way be implemented to know what stats and skills you need to use an item before buying it too? Either as part of identification, as a new separate identification spell for requirements or through some book?

Without that I’m very reluctant to buy anything at all as I spent too much money already on things that are useless to me.

while speaking with an advisor eariler today he had instructed my to come to the bugtracker here, but had made a typo in the link pointing me to “http://www.hydlaaplaza.com/flypray” which I had cought and corrected before coming here. As it stands, I’m very familiar with FlySpray from working on other projects so the typo was trivial for me, but other players might not be so keen. I think an easy way of “fixing” the issue of typos for common resources would be to allow Advisors to have encapsulated snippets containing the links. a few examples would be;

(fs) would be replaced with http://www.hydlaaplaza.com/flyspray

(forums) would be replaced with http://www.planeshift.it/forums.html

(guide) would be point to http://www.planeshift.it/quickstart.html

Etc, Etc..

I don’t know exactly what languages the PlaneShift client/server uses, but if it uses Python this would be a fairly trivial addition.
