Inversely... Maybe some tattoos could cap your rep and prevent you from going above a certain level, and could only be removed (I've tested and you can neither sell a tattoo or transfer it to an officer once you have it -- they're not `water-soluables`), painfully, by going to some specialist. Acid wash and cheese graters, I picture.[/quote]Sounds funny. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Sorry mates, even though I thought I was one of the more frequent visitors of this forum, I seem to have lost track. May I make a request ? If you announce new things, could you please post a link (even if it's here at PA - I can't find the ftp any more, I can't find anything in the downloads section <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> )
Edit: at least I found the ftp: <a href="ftp://ftp.piratesahoy.net/" target="_blank">ftp://ftp.piratesahoy.net/</a>
I'm looking for Alan's new characters, this tatto mod (and no, emrep, I'm not going to... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> ), a working version of blacksmith mod, and the latest version of stormy start. And, if possible, most of it in one download package. Pieter, what's in your latest compilation and where is it?
I'm sure it's all here, but can someone please point me to it? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":keith" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />
Or could we maybe have a sticky thread with all the announcements and corresponding links?
Oh, and what about the CVS? Does it only have what's in the release version of the build? Who's adding to it? Who's making new build versions ? Would be wonderful if we could have all those new things in the build soon.
 
Yes, Inez, it's been a bit confusing here lately, I know... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huhh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":eek:k" border="0" alt="huhh.gif" />

I'm the one who seems to be left holding the line to the CVS and updating the Build... Which is okay, because I can do it. BUT the rule has been and always will be that we need to be SURE that all of this is compatible with B12 before we add it to the CVS and subsequently to the B12 updater.

Right now everything is still being tested and added to... Eventually we need to call a stop to what is being added and simply finish it off for a "B12.2" update. I'll do that soon, I was just waiting for the "big stuff" (blacksmith/stormy start/swak) to finish being bugtested and corrected.

That would indeed be very nice.
 
Of what I've been posting about, only my new characters mod is on the FTP. The tattoos will be shortly... I guess there's only a little bit more to finish that off, though it'll be expanded muchly in a later update.

Speaking of later updates, here's a `sneak-peek` at "A_S Captains Courageous Part Deux." I won't tell you who it is, maybe you can guess.

Thx. So I'll try that first.

Good; I wondered if I shouldn't have made him more... smirking. So, I've been playing him `in-game` named Frank N. Furter... hee hee hee. It also makes me want to find Kermit Proudfoot in Greenford... and stab him.

"A_S Opium Den w. Tattoos" is on the server. It's a new location set up like an opium den, and populated by three druggies... one will sell you etherbottles*, and one will give you tattoos. But like I say, tattooing costs your health meter, and there's the chance it'll poison you.

But you get them and you just _feel_ tougher and more `sailor-like`, I promise.

* I wanted to create a new item that would knock out people in battle stance, but to no avail. How might that be done? I also forgot I wanted to add a `high-stakes` gambler to the den, like for $10,000 a roll... maybe later. And I just realized I forgot to include a small, `non-vital` piece of text that would make the tattoo artist greet you with a hearty belch.

I now have the same problem as Inez: can't find something in these `dozen-page` posts.

I know you asked somewhere if you had to define pchar.wealth. Don't have the question, but here is the answer:

What must be defined is the object(reference) that the attribute .wealth belongs to. There must be one (and ONLY one) definition for each variable/object in each function.
If you work in a dialogfile there should already be something like ref pchar = getmaincharacter() on top. If you work in another file check if there is already another reference to the maincharacter and use that. (pchr, mchar, mc ... )
Should there be no reference at all you must define your own.
 
Heh, no kidding... I borrowed a lot of your code from house resident encounters for poisoning and removing HP. And I got the money thingy figured out, with a bit of fooling around. It turns out to be almost the same as in the blacksmith dialogs, only he uses mchr, because that's how he defines the main character at the top, and I used pchar because that's how it was already defined and I chose not to bother with it.
 
You should get a soundbyte of a great juicy belch for his character, Alan!!! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/piratesing.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shock" border="0" alt="piratesing.gif" />

I tried it yet and the only real `bug-like` thing I found was that you could buy multiple of the same tattoos, but that doesn't make sense, so I already solved that one myself. But you already know that. Otherwise, everything seems to work fine. Only it is possible to draw your sword in the opium parlour. Should that be possible?
