  • Couple of questions about the promotion this month, don't think they warrant a new thread.

    Can somebody post the output from SHOWREWARDS? I can only vaguely remember some of the things that are available.

    How many tickets do you get from the books of racing tickets? Is it random or a fixed amount?

    @Tecton: I hope/assume the answer is yes, but can you use multiple leashes to reduce the price of a pet (i.e. two to reduce the cost by 450)?

    Awesome, thank you! Time to send out propaganda letters to all the heathens in Mhaldorian.
    Unfortunately, you can't write documents in city languages.

  • Thanks. That's better than I remembered. If you want a pet and trade in the clod of elemental clay, and don't do really badly at the races, you're probably looking at in excess of a 50% bonus on top of a 2000 credit purchase, before factoring in the 10% from Iron Elite.
  • Is there any effective way to not be washed away by rivers?
  • edited November 2014
    If you just want to stay in one room, an icewall or another person blocking the exit will prevent you from being pulled with the current. Just be sure to quickly replace the ice wall when it melts (they last 10 minutes normally). If you mean while walking through a river, just move quickly and don't stay too long in one room.

  • "You can't seem to convey your mental message to that denizen."

    Why am I getting that message when trying to send a tell to a player?
  • KerriaKerria The Red Lioness
    short name? or are they still there? Or misspelled?
  • When people say they got cool spyglasses or other cool items and such from people for Logosmas, are these just denizen created items from far away, or are they custom items? And if they're custom items, how are they created?
  • Have skills like Tailoring, Jewellery, and Cooking always cost 693 lessons to learn, or did they used to take 1736?
  • OuraniaOurania The Garden of the Gods
    As an example, a nautical spyglass is an item bought of a denizen. If allowed, this can then be made non-decay, resetting, customisable (etc), through the normal channels. 

    This usually goes for any denizen item sold (but there are reasons some can't be). If in doubt, email customisations@achaea.com about an item you have.

  • There should be an artificer skill... for designing and making random objects with zero purpose other than being a thing... maybe with some push/pull/shake reactions :grin:

    That's called my inventory, much to the despair of poor Tecton.
    So what you're saying is...you have a lot of things which react to being pushed, pulled, and shaken? #insightful

    Anyone know the minimum spec for running Mudlet on Windows? Would 1gb of RAM do it? (considering a low cost Windows tablet for casual gaming)

    Tharos, the Announcer of Delos shouts, "It's near the end of the egghunt and I still haven't figured out how to pronounce Clean-dat-hoo."
  • Mudlet itself shouldn't take up much, though badly written scripts can boost the memory taken up by a lot.
  • KlendathuKlendathu Eye of the Storm
    Aside from Svo and Austere's aff tracker, I write my own scripts, so badly written scripts would be my own fault and therefore fixable!

    For info, this is what I was thinking of getting - Connect 7" tablet - absolute bargain at 59GBP

    1. The main question here is how much memory the OS itself takes up. 1GB is plenty for Mudlet, but if the OS takes up most of that already, it might not be, depending on your scripting.
    2. The CPU is going to matter somewhat too. I would go so far as to say that that's probably a larger issue than memory, particularly if you're coding poorly. Triggers tend to be a big place where I've seen slowdowns - poor regex, not bothering to enable/disable them to save checking lines against them when you don't need to, etc.
    Either way, you can definitely run Mudlet on a very low-end system. If you can run a web browser, you can probably run Mudlet.

    That's your problem right there.  Assuming your offense is setup even remotely close to mine,  it is going to slow a tablet down a ton.  I ran mine on six gigs of ram when I first started and it still hated it. Could be the fact my computer was an antique,  but it was rough to run that many scripts on just about every action.  I would recommend using stack variable as a disable,  at least.  Maybe even disable the entire trigger folder, since you can't really pk via tablet.. can you?

    This explains why my computer is so slow when I run it. My scripts are mostly held together by chewing gum and scotch tape.
    I suggest you get a duct tape.

    With a cheap keyboard plugged into it, you could absolutely pk via tablet.

    With aggressive binding/aliasing, you could probably even do it with a software keyboard, though I shudder to consider what that would be like.

    Achaea is just text processing. If it were written moderately well, you could run a full system with jawdropping numbers of triggers and checks on a mid-range graphing calculator. The sort of simple text processing involved is computationally cheap and Achaea's lines are very small and come very slowly (compared to most text processing tasks, where you're frequently dealing with huge reams of text being generated at truly staggering rates).

    If six gigs is problematic for your triggers, or the sort of CPU that you'd have in a machine with six gigs of memory is proving problematic, the problem is your triggers/system (or perhaps the client), it's definitely not that that's an inherently too-costly thing to do. It's definitely not the case that you can't expect a tablet to keep up with a full system - the only exception is those ultra-budget tablets I've been seeing more and more recently where they only barely include enough memory to run the OS and you end up swapping endlessly.

    Can pk pretty well with Blowtorch. Provided you take the time to set it up, it's pretty customisable for what it is.

    Drakon PKs with it quite well, and he was using like a 4" phone. Though he was Alchemist (now Runewarden), I imagine some classes would take a decent bit more effort to set up than others. I did a decent bit on my Priest / Magi.

    Is it possible to learn Dragon after attaining Dragonhood the same way you learn other languages so that you can remember it while being in lesserform?

    And you won't understand the cause of your grief...


    ...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.

  • Just ask @Orzaansyn as she does some fighting on her phone using Blowtorch, I believe. Or it could be a tablet. I'm assuming phone.

    Sorry for double post... I used certain parts of your tracker, and rewrote quite a lot to work how I wanted it to. It's still a fantastic piece of work, I wouldn't have known where to start without it. I'll PM you the extra bits I wrote for bard that directly plug in.
