[GF3] Money cap? Also, editing character speed? in Geneforge Series

No, it hasn't, so don't sell valuable pieces of equipment once you start approaching the limit, or go out and buy a bunch of spells, creations, canisters, living tools, etc.

The little question marks just identify important areas on the map. Click on them and the name of the area will show up. Like "shop" on a shop or something similar.

An interesting thing I noticed is that different weapons have different AP costs for using them? For example I can swing the Oozing Blade twice a turn at an adjacent target but it seems I can only use the Guardian Claymore [...] once?
Enough of an increase in Quick Action from somewhere to get a second swing more often, perhaps? Did you add any quicksilver or other AP boosting items?

Dikiyoba really has no other ideas to explain what you describe.

30,000 is the max amount of money you can have at one time. Sorry, there's no way around this.

On the other hand, you can change the walking speed of your character. The default speed is 24, so find wherever cr_walk_speed is higher than that and change it to suit your taste.

G1 is Dikiyoba's favorite, and then G2, G4, and finally G3. G4 would probably move above G2 if it ran on Dikiyoba's computer better. G3 is significantly worse than the others.

Isn't "the killing" part of "the game". I mean, "the game" covers everything.

Dikiyoba would rather not run into Alorael's posts--or anyone else's, for that matter. Running into things hurts!

If running into one of Alorael's posts isn't a big deal, then Nikki must have been referring to someone whose posts are a big deal to run into.

Dikiyoba doesn't think he stated that directly, but he said something along the lines of G5 determining whether Shaping stays or goes, which seems pretty final.

That's your loss. Magic tends to be far more effective than missiles.
I honestly admit that I play for fun and that fun does not equal pure power or optimization for me. So it's no loss at all.

quote:
You shape creations for battle, and then protect them? That's contradictory.
Not really, since I'm fighting right alongside them. When one starts getting hit too badly, I step forward to take a blow while I heal it, and they take a few blows in battles where I start getting overwhelmed.

quote:
But leveling up a fyora or artila is pure madness.
But it's fun! :P

(And yes, Dikiyoba edited the script so Salassar never damaged himself for that battle.)

I prefer using a shock trooper, but I don't have any objective reason for it. Well, except that I don't mess around with magic in the Geneforge Series much.

Dikiyoba reloads after creation death as well. The creations protect you, you protect the creations, and it all works out.

If the effect bothers you that much, why even make a charged creation at all? Many people don't even bother with them in the first place.

Yes, it's a once per day ability. But if you have multiple characters who know it, a different one should be able to sanctify it. (Dikiyoba assumes it works the same way in A3 as it does in A2.)

Aren't the G4 saved games actually in the My Documents folder now? That has been my experience with them on Windows XP at least, and removing the G4 Saved Games folder from My Documents should make the game generate a new folder and empty set of save files the next time you play it.

Dikiyoba is a Geneforge freak, but not nearly as freaky as some of the other ones. It's always a very close call between the Geneforge Series and the Avernum Series.

Conversations always digress from the original topic, but this is actually ironic. Hawk gave a suggestion to be more kind to people, yet now this has turned into threads of cursing, sarcasm, and pointlessness. :rolleyes:
Suffice to say, it was deliberately started and deliberately picked up by others.

By touching me inappropriately, Dikiyoba has sent me, Sonic-style, to the end of the line with bounceback to Notting Hill Gate. I hop to green, as the orange is scary.
Salmon, you goofball. That is Hedgehog Eight Point One One Seven Five, not Hedgehog Eight. You've gone and ruined all my plans and screwed yourself over in the process.

Dikiyoba uses the Mulligan Plan to return to Barons Court in order to launch a new plan of attack next turn.

Edit: That's two pages in a row!

...why are there no bows in Geneforge? Did Batons make Bows (and crossbows, for the matter) obosolete?
Or thorn batons work so well that bows were never invented. I mean, it's probably a lot easier to carry thorns and a baton than a bow and arrows (although the batons seem to have grown larger in G4). Easier to make? Probably not the batons, but the thorns aren't much of a problem.

Dikiyoba, how do you explain that move to Finsbury Park? I blocked you the same way you blocked me. By the Red Spaniard Decision, you could only have moved passed me in that direction as far as Gloucestor Road, or perhaps Notting Hill Gate. At any rate, it's too late to challenge it, so I'll just move to Notting Hill Gate myself.
The mind the gap rule, of course!
