I think a question is a better start to a topic than a poll. If you ask a question, people might answer, and some kind of interesting discussion is (in theory) possible. With a poll, you just get a couple of numbers that don't really mean anything.

I doubt it'll be a major problem. Broadband over power lines never seems to go anywhere.

There are reasons why we might want to (temporarily) change the graphic of a PC.

If you only need it for a cutscene, you could fake it by moving the PCs out of the way and replacing them with monsters that have the new graphics.

If you need it for more than that, I can't think of a way, but there might well be one. And even if you can't change a PC into a demon, you might well be able to add a demonic aura with suitable trickery.

Because it isn't worth the bother. It isn't just a case of selecting "Port scenario" and firing it out of the door.

Is this not how we also view goblins, orcs, ogres?

I was struck by Drizzt viewing orcs in exactly that way, despite being unhappy at people assuming that all drow are evil.

Smoke and Mirrors, by Neil Gaiman. Very good (although not suitable for the young)

0.999~ = 1. Prove me wrong. in General

0.9~ is equal to 1. It's defined as the limit of 9/10 + 9/100 + 9/1000 + ... as the number of terms goes to infinity, and that limit is exactly 1.

0.9~ - 0.9~ is defined, and is zero.

1 - 0.9~ is also zero, exactly.

0.0000...001 doesn't mean anything.

No, you can't.

But you can make custom character abilities that can act a bit like spells.

Ick. Would you mind testing it on a very short script where it produces errors it shouldn't, with the -d option on, and sending me the script and results?
