Aardwolf Progress Update! 28JAN04

New Quest Purchases
At a cost of 500qp per stat, you can now add a stat to ANY item, regardless of other enhancements. There is a maximum of level/30 stats per item that can be added using quest points, and an overall maximum of 5 stats per item. The syntax is:

Each stat added also increases the maximum remort auction bid on the item by 350. You may add stats to non-quest items also, but keep in mind that you will not be able to get qp back for them as there is no mechanism to exchange regular eq for quest points.

There is a second new quest buy option that will allow you to lower the level of an item by 1 level up to a maximum of 5. The syntax is:

The cost is also 500qp/level. Each level lowered will also add 350 to the max rauction value of an item.

As well, the 'rbid' command during a remort auction will now show the max bid an item can have. A new format to the identify commands (identify, object read, lore, etc.) Will report how stats have been added to an item (when over 0) and how many levels an object has been lowered (when greater than 0).

New Wishes
-BRAVERY: This will ignore *mob* attempts to spook you.
Cost: 6000 qps
-GILLS: Permenent underwater breathing. Can still cast the spell if you like, they work independantly but have same effect.
Cost: 4000 qps

Global Questing Change
PK has been returned to global questing. While taking part in a gquest, you can now be attacked in PK flagged rooms.

Other Added Features
The advice command/setup has been modified so that imms can edit/add/delete advice while online.

The 'NOBEEP' command has been changed to 'allowbeep'. No other changes were made to this command.

Testing and Builders muds no longer display 'Time to vote' in prompts.'

The 'ownedcarry' command now shows item serial numbers if any. It will also place a '*' before the item level if it has a keepflag, and a '*' before the owners name if it is currently being worn by its owner.
