The same, or not the same, it doesn't exactly matter. You can use the check_floor instead if the terrain will be shifting a lot. It would be simple to have a digable planet if there were 3 to 4 duplicate floors. I would still encourage terrain/floor checking over location checks. You might also be able to do things with is_stain_on_space and alternative responses ("You dig down a few feet only to find a partially decomposed elf. You quickly cover it up and vow never to speak of it again.") -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

I would rather see this in a poll format employing check boxes. That said; Yes, unconditional, yes, no, yes. Why on earth would you be interested in the answers from this subset of the human population? -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Freely admitting that I am an idiot and that this reply may come too late in the game, why the hell are you checking x,y locations??? Wouldn't it be simpler to have a digable terrain? That way, each time the "Dig with shovel" special ability is called you only have to check under each of the four (or so) characters and see if (get_terrain) matches the special type. If not, then of course the "Nothing is found" message can be displayed (or ground is too hard, too soft, farmer tries to shoot you, etc...) That's my two cents worth. -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Sadly, the sign over the entrance read "Love". Edit - Spell-checks, and this isn't a posting game. There appears to be no connection between consecutive posts other than a passing reference to the original (or topic shifting) post. Now Aran, go back to other stuff. Edit 2 - Grammatical eros in my edit (first). Also, signs read not said. More coffee is being made....

Recent scientifically based studies have proven within a shadow of a doubt that self imposed absences from the messageboards can stand up in court as surrogate bannings, which act as get-out-of-jail-free cards in the case of bannings based on temporary sanity. Temporary insanity generally is punished by lifetime bannings. It was a good rant, but not really a fit. I give it a 6.3 because it was obvious your heart was not bleeding. If you don't like the review, tough cookies. -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

The lack of congratulations for my bottom of page 1 post lends credence to its contents. I'll just say right here that my general spamminess in this (and other) threads over the past several days, while clearly and indication of my overall character, is also a reflection of my upcoming absence from the forums. You have until August to relax and post freely. :eek: -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

On a similar note, why on earth did ultimate fighting create a set of rules? Now there is a nitch for real ultimate fighting where eye gouging and crotch stomping are allowed. Mooney is ready, are you? -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Our deadly goatsucker forum participant would do well to realize that posts timed to hit the bottom of a page are usually read fewer times than those at the top of the page. Excuse me, I think I just saw my sanity. Gotta go try to catch it. :rolleyes: -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

quote:While I have my suspicions (about you), this certainly isn't the forum in which to discuss them. For the record, almost everyone is bigoted to some extent. It is a happenstance of culture, nurturing, and economic status. I know where I am bigoted, and consciously control it so that I don't come across as some babbling psychotic every time I open my yap. How am I doing? :P -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

*Tap, tap, tap* Anyone seen the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie yet? Welcoming newcomers with both the sanity issue and the announced shifting topic problem may be a little overwhelming. @Aran - how many registered, non-duplicate forum members post more than 5 times, and more than once? -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

quote:You must have meant music composed/performed by white people, right? Otherwise I have a hard time swallowing that music such as that found on Graceland is primarily enjoyed by people other than Caucasian. I can appreciate that you have your own group of musical styles that you enjoy. I think that we are all like that. It just seems rather elitist of you to point out that only those styles you don't like are those sames ones that lack style, substance, or originality. But, it is that attitude that endears you. :P -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

quote:Huh. I find it more enjoyable when all hell breaks loose is a match. Hockey was great until they took away the fighting. Baseball brawls, chair throwing in basketball, panty raids in football. They are all staples of my American diet of sports, sports trivia, and old sports. Don't marginalize them by saying they are inappropriate, accept that that is what the world is about. People are just not nice. It ain't in us. If that wasn't the case, you wouldn't find all the current "problems" in the world. It's just life, snafu. -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

quote:While the current US supported, terrorist coddling regime may not condone homosexuality, Islam itself doesn't care to render any opinion on sexual orientation. Sexual acts, including anal intercourse, that are traditionally viewed as the primary means of homosexual sexual expression are viewed as major sins. Paul, you bore. Your rhetoric is tired and old, filled with the same bigotry that fueled Nazism. Please, by all means express yourself. There are forums out there that would react quite nicely to the vitriol you spread. A software manufacturer's game forum is likely not going to be that place.
