this is heavy scripting right off the bat... not to mention testing and bux fixing.
i know its a pain to write... but i think it would be really cool. a sword with a dialogue function and whatnot.
ive always liked the idea of a weapon that has an aura with "get alighnment" if your sword is evil... it starts sending flavor text above you calling for blood when good npcs/pcs are around... and somthing along those lines for a good sword also...
the stats dont matter... yeah yeah damage and all that..
but a sword that can do somthing else is cool... specually if my sword is telling me to kill somthing because it craves their blood...
the biggest problem would be prossesor use... so no on heartbeat... and having multiple swords checking alighnment may cause some useless cycles... so if you all can figure out your way around that you'd be freaking pimps.

Ok, I think this is the perfect opportunity to chime in and thank addicted2RPG. He is someone MANY of you have no clue of, but you use his code on a daily basis. If it wasn't for our resident coder many of the custom features (and bug fixes) wouldn't be there.
So I extend my hearty thanks to the man behind the curtain. I am confidant all of us on Fredian greatly appreciate everything you do for us.
Many thanks, Lumix

*likes the idea of intelligent weapons, shudders at the thought of the dm's as 'freaking pimps', agrees whole heartedly and thanks A2RPG for the good work*

Intelligent weapons are fine when only 1 exists on a single mod not happening in an enviroment such as ours TOTAL CPU hog, sorry. And yes Addicted is always appreciated, and spoken of by me when he updates things, I think some miss that but his fixes have made the server much better over time, along with mine and Salandra's efforts, hers being the least noticed IMO. Makz.

Man, even if would be possible, I dunno... Inserric drove me nuts after a few hours with its constant whining about killing things. Imagine SCORES of weapons all chatting... *holds head*
Oh and hells yes, Addicted knows his stuff, and gets a hearty slap on the back from me. My only gripe is that he doesnt have the time to RP or run events like he used to. A shame, I remember a number of events he has run when I was as a player, and all were excellent and fun to be a part of.
