Quest: Kilas wants his abacus back

[NPC] Kilas Tungse says: Do you think you can help me with a quick errand?
[NPC] $player says: I love to learn!
[NPC] Kilas Tungse says: Thanks.
[NPC] Kilas Tungse says: I lent my abacus to Crosh Dunehammer, the guardian of the dungeons.

vs.

[NPC] $player says: about dungeon
[NPC] Kilas Tungse says: What dungeon? Are you sure you heard right? If there was a dungeon anywhere nearby, I'm sure the city would've had it sealed off by now.

This "There is no dungeon" conspiracy makes consistent quests hard where inhabitants of the dungeon are involved.

As the daytime progresses, each few minutes you see the shadows on the floor flashing, especially obvious near the Laanx temple and on the plaza.

It looks like the shadowmap is completely removed, then restored with a tiny delay. Might be necessary to display shadow states of different daytimes?

At least it is a lot less annoying than the repeated switching between several shadowmaps in earlier versions.

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

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");

I had discussed this with Sarva who liked the idea and asked me to enter it into the Tracker.

Add a “reason” to the “report” command:
Usage: report [player name] [reason]

In case it takes a while to implement this, meanwhile at least add to the command description that the reporting player also files a petition because this makes it easier for the Game Masters to check what happened.

Thank you for listening (reading),

I think it would be nice if mages would be able to make magic scrolls, on the same patterns as you can enchant gems, you could enchant a paper by spells.

Then anyone could use that scroll to cast magic without magical knowledge, so a crafter or fighter character could use identifing, healing or other type of spells.
The power of the spell and the duration would depend on the quality of the scroll, and that on the way level of the mage who created it.

Scroll would be crafted from papers on the same way as you make enchanted crystals from gems.
It could use an ‘intermediate object’ or multiple glyph enchanting on a single paper would do it too.
For example, if a spell is a 3 glyph combination then the crafter would need to use those 3 glyphs (in the right order?) to apply the spell on the scroll.

Using the scrolls would work through the /use command.
/use Scroll of Healing Flash
/use Scroll of Analyze Dweomer
/use Scroll of Fist of the Volcano

The script should consider what is targeted, if an item is targeted, you could use identifing, if a mob or player has been targeted you could use the spell on the target too for attacking or buffing.
You also would be able to cast spells on other players that are only allowed now to cast on yourself like Dome of Perfection.

I already discussed it with weltall, who doesn’t see technical limitations in implementation yet.

After showing a newbie how to mine and harvest, they approached me the other day saying that they tried to harvest apples around the smithy but failed to apply what I taught them the day before.

It's probably for the fact that apples and their location are far older than the harvesting system s a whole, that I never thought about that before. And that apparently no one else has thought of including apples when setting up the harvesting areas?

I think one should be able to harvest apples just as all the other plants and fruits. If only for matters of consistency.

(I hope the area "Rules" is about right, please re-tag if inappropriate)

bright and murky essences are made by processing 1 of the 3 essence mixes resulting in 3 product.
with higher skill you can process 2 at a time into 6 product.
to process 2 at a time you have to cut off 2 from the stack and transfer them, very time consuming.
to process 1 you dump a stack in the container and shift click on it til they are spread out.

every other higher skill same process I have looked at gave more product per ingredient.
For example 2 crystal sludge –> 5 crystal essences
higher skill 1 –> 3

This task collects the crafting feature requests.

This task collects the spell feature requests.

spells that give buffs should have their duration reset upon further castings instead of casting having no effect within the spells duration.

If I cast defensive wind, currently subsequent castings have no effect while the spell is active. Could this be changed so that the second spell restarts the duration timer?

Moving of a short cut overwrites the old one – likely to cause problems with people randomly deleting SCs they want. [FEAT]

(moved from defect # 6066)

If you have a shortcut to equip an item stored in a container in inventory – for example a book in a bag – the container window is opened up in the process. This is unexpected because you can store or sell such items without said container windows being displayed.

I keep my crafting books in a sack in inventory, my shortcut is:
-<shortcut76 name=”Dishes with Fishes” buttonimage=”/planeshift/materials/book_cookingfishes.dds”>

<![CDATA[/dequip mind /use Dishes with Fishes]]>

The same happens with my tool sack - sample shortcut:
-<shortcut78 name=”Masher” buttonimage=”/planeshift/materials/masher01a_icon.dds”>

<![CDATA[/dequip righthand /use Masher]]>

If I need to change tools or books in mid craft I do not want to have to reshow whichever crafting container I am using.

low priority, perhaps.

At the moment the guild key does NOT show up as a key when a character is holding it.
It shows up as a pouch bag.
Please kindly switch the image for a actual gold key just like shown in inventory.

The description of the “Armor Repair Kit” says
“To use it equip the armor and type /repair <location> in the chat window. Example /repair boots ,/repair torso ,/repair gloves ,/repair arms” according to the examples it should be /repair pants to repair the “<armor type> Pants”.

If you ask him a question he doesn’t know how to respond to he uses the default verbal answers.

Now that we have a working pet AI that can properly follow a player it may be an appropriate time to suggest the addition of something to cater to tradesmen such as traveling merchants and miners who are frequently overloaded by the weight of their inventory.

There is already evidence of large beasts of burden and carts in game and it may be time to implement Pack Animals or a small cart you can pull yourself to increase your overall carrying capacity. aside from the obvious utility value it would also add some RP value allowing merchants to sell directly out of their carts and have enough inventory on hand to negotiate deals along the roads.

Moved from ticket 5981, suggestion by Franta

it would be good to implement command with list of all public channels with something like /list [filter]. It would also show all channels you are joined with the corresponding number.

Example:
/list
gossip (talk with /1 <text>)
auctions (talk with /2 <text>)
hydlaa_chat (not connected)
gobble_hunt (not connected)

the same list with filter as parameter:
/list go
gossip (talk /1 <text>)
gobble_hunt (not connected)

the same list with special case for only connected channels:
/list #
gossip (talk with /1 <text>)
auctions (talk with /2 <text>)

Currently storage is sorted alphabetically which is fantastic.
if we had additional sorting by quality that would be even better, often i’m picking through my materials for the best or the worst of something when i’m crafting. if we had additional sorting by quality this would be so much easier.

From Post by apyj13 inhttp://www.hydlaaplaza.com/smf/index.php?topic=41889.msg473672#msg473672 “would it be possible to add a quality “tooltip” on hover so you don’t have to right click on an item when it’s in your inventory to see what quality it is, or perhaps a small number in the corner (similar to what is done with the quantity)?”

Also is it possible to make the numbers for quantity/quality in item slots customisable from skin xmls.

My Kran can eat certain non-Kran food, such as fish, bread, and possibly other kinds of food without getting indigestion.

Since plenty of other non-Kran foods give indigestion, I’m sure this isn’t normal.

In Fishing Lessons for Fish, the quest dialog does not match the quest notes for that particular task. In one possible task the player is told to get 6 eels and 7 manta rays, but the quest notes say 7 eels and 6 manta rays. The player seemed to indicate that it was the notes that were wrong, but isn’t online for me to double-check.

When I jump near an NPC my character tries to climb on top of it and then falls thru the NPC. I’m guessing it should not be possible to climb on NPCs.. although it would be fun :D

There seems to be a problem with how incoming damage is being handled when casting spells in combat. The primary issue appears to be a glitch when casting a offensive spell where the player will loose their combat stance and be treated as out of combat which this seems to have the (hopefully)unintended effect of allowing incoming damage to bypass the players defenses completely any skills / abilities to reduce the damage and even seeming to nullify the effects of the players armor allowing creatures to directly deal massive hits directly to the players hp similar to if they were completely unarmed and unarmored. The result can a normally harmless enemy suddenly dealing critical damage and causing instantaneous death depending on the situation.

Expected behavior would be to not allow melee attacks during spell casting however the player should remain in the selected combat stance to ensure that armor and evasion occurs properly and melee attacks may be automatically resumed after the casting completes.

at the job bar tab is no scrollbar available,for some its there only if they max out the size of the window

Names of signs appear at the bottom.

all potions I tested results in a diamond crystal icon in the active effects bar.

(I DETECTED IT ON OLD PS, DELETE THIS IF IS NOT APLY TO NEW ENGINE)

THE BOOK DRINK OF THE DOME HAS ERRORS:

DOUBLE SENTENCES LIKE:
COMBINE MUG OF HOT WATER, SCOOP OF STRIMPOTOR, 4 DASH POWERED BREAD RISES, MUG OF HOT WATER, SCOOP OF STRIMPOTOR, 4 DASH POWERED BREAD RISES INTO…..

USES A 0 (CERO) IN SENTENCES LIKE:
0 LIQUID BREAD RISES

with alchemist fire/freezer equipped → attack npc
chat responds ‘You have no weapons equipped’

legacy allowed to discard repeatable quests

As with other windows with 1600 by 1000 and other similar ratios it does not fit on the screen properly.

Example found in all Alchemist items, example Alchemist Freezer

Error on console is:

Error in ><let> bindings<: Given a NULL iScriptableVar* for >RightItem<.

The scripts are run through : ApsCharacter::InvokeAttackScripts()

The first thing is to execute this script part:
   RightItem=Attacker:GetItem(0);
   QuaLevel=RightItem:Quality/50;

 In a similar case with GetItem(0) but outside of <let> we get MathStatement::Evaluate() with RightItem=nan , it works.

Select furnace, click on “look” icon. In opened window none of the icons open your personal inventory… Some of these Icons also got the wrong description when hoovering them

to recreate;
1. place container on ground (sack, crate…)
2. right-click container → Look
3. Place stacked items in container (tested with daggers, arrows, potions, rings)
4. From container, Select (1) item from stack, place on ground
Entire stack is removed from container (same effect for all items tested)
This does not happen when container is in inventory

Not sure what causes the client to crash. But it seems reproducible when I turn around.

I loaded up as a new Ylian and started with 0 tria, empty inventory…

chatted to a few npcs harnquist , apples… there were no apples(probably had to wait for spawn) , science guy…

then chatted to guards at gate and row over dagger, they gave me a dagger i cant equip…

went to find some ulbers to look at animation.

Bug:the Ulbernaut is attacking me but cant seem do anything to me..

also the pop up chat text pops up all the time in it’s face… ‘is attack, thinks ur weak’

messages all the time right in front of the face…

so now they chase me around and cant damage me…

when it cast stones… there is no effect or spell or animation(that one is prob for me to solve)

Need to fix the model to not being open at the bottom. (noted it missing in stream while working on magic light)

NPC talk is not logged to chat logfile. The only things which gets logged is what I type into the free-form-box

The console says you received 4 circles, but the wallet won’t update until you complete another quest. Comnpleting Harnquist is Hungry for example says another 4 circles in console, and wallet updates to 8 circles.

In guild house one can run through chairs and beds and shelves.

Collision detected is disabled. Like for chairs and other items placed outside of the guild house.

Expected result

In guild house collisions are detected for items like beds, shelves, chairs and so on is enabled like in Crystal Space PS. So that these items are really solid for the char.

Ideally there would also be collision detection outside of guild house, together with a physics simulations, so that you cannot place 10 shelves onto one another easily, cause they would crumble down again. We did not have this in Crystal Space PS however, so for feature parity with CS PS collision detection inside guild houses is enough.

It’s spawned items, probably from a natural resource location.

In PS Legacy there are low Q ores / gems near mines, which is good for newbies. In PSU there do not seem to be any.
I chose Crafting Category, since you need ores, for example, for crafting weapons.

Suggestion

Add low base damage and fire damage to the torch.

Currently. you get an error message when trying to attack with the torch.

While at harnquist in Hydlaa I am able to target creatures in the arena.

very confusing and weird.

Put a sack on the ground
put a torch in the sack
picked up the sack.

Receive warning that I should not leave 1 torch here a few minutes later
