When I kill a Gobble, and I\'ve used a health potion while fighting it, my character drops a health potion after it\'s dead and I\'ve looted it. I think it happens every time.. and it may not just be gobbles, but that\'s all I\'ve ever killed

Alright, here\'s my idea. I can\'t think of a name as yet, but:

Description:

Deep, deep in dark damp lonely dungeons, black tentacled Things slither noiselessly through the tunnels, hunting rats and other vermin. Their size varies from that of a kitten to a large dog. They resemble slugs, but with more teeth, and with several sets of long tentacles, which they use to catch and paralyse their prey, and for movement - a sort of undulating slithering run.

They are solitary hunters, but they have the ability to telepathically call for help if in danger, summoning any of their friends who happen to be close by.

Overview:
* lives in very deep dungeons
* tentacled giant slug with teeth.
* hunts rats, but will attack solitary adventurers if they get too close.
* medium HP, low/medium attack
* if they get into trouble, they can telepathically call their nearby kin for help.

Attacks:
* tentacle whip - low physical damage,  but also some weak poison damage
* grab and bite - leaps towards you, tentacles outstretched, attempts to cling and bite. Bites cause more damage than whips.
* telepathic scream - causes confusion, and summons help

Drops:
Nothing. (Can\'t think of anything that such a creature would own)


Possible extension: Nests, with Queens who would telepathically control their subjects (think shub-niggurath from quake)

But wouldnt you be able to bypass this by just Hard shut down (just turning off your comp) ?

it would be a lot easier than that - just disconnect from the internet w/o closing PS

i guess the best solution is to have the 10second timelimit after combat etc.. like pwnscape does.

but, unlike chewnscape.. it would be nice if you could click \"logout\" and instead of just having a \"can\'t logout yet\" message, you would get a little countdown timer which would autologout after the timelimit ran out (unless you cancelled).

oh yeah, i LOVE the idea of logout animations - portals, puffs of smoke, bring it on
also log-IN stuff would be nice - stepping out of the portal, or whatever

i thought cracker also used to refer to people who cracked games copy-protection, or even haxed them to give 255 lives hehe.. this was back in the days before every game had \"~ god [enter]\" of course :

you can select things in mouselook mode. when the box comes up saying \"Ruby Crystal\", rightclick.

you get used to the controls - i only use mouselook very occasionally now

mouselook => press \\

for me, night is too dark to see anything - its kinda annoying..
