Re: Foraging Info (SPOILERS)

Update: Edited the OP with information regarding how Foraging works with a predetermined seed in the game world. May be a little confusing, but it's not especially important to know anyways, just for those who are curious (like me). All the rest of the information is finalized as well, including a l...

Re: Foraging Info (SPOILERS)

I started work on this a while ago and got as far as level 9 before I got distracted. The method I used was to turn on auto-walk, walk into an obstacle, and then weight the keyboard key to move in the opposite direction. That causes your character to walk back and forth over the same squares repeat...

Re: Foraging Info (SPOILERS)

Yah most of the later skill levels will take a lot of data to know for sure. Fortunately, because of the fixed number of turns between each item encounter, I can save immediately before finding an item and then continuously reload the file to quickly test for different results. I haven't actually te...

Foraging Info (SPOILERS)

Been doing some testing of the Foraging skill, primarily out of personal curiosity. Did a quick search of the forum and didn't find any precise info on the rate at which you find items while foraging, or when exactly you can begin to find what items. So I thought I'd share my findings. In general, t...

Re: Semi-official bug tracking thread (SPOILERS)

I have an odd and somewhat exploitable bug to report. In the Akadai Underworld, I am somehow able to spawn a (so far) unlimited number of loot bags each containing a single Fetid Grubb Tumor by simply saving and reloading my game. Each time I save and reload, another loot bag appears. I had saved to...

Re: Shrock (Spoilers?)

Okay, I didn't actually try waiting out the charm effect, I don't know why I didn't just think of that. Thank you for that suggestion, I didn't want to resort to using a map editor or anything like that. Does their line of sight extend past the world borders in their region though (serious question,...

Shrock (Spoilers?)

So I've already searched several forums including this one and can't figure out why, short of a bug, Shrock is hostile towards me. I enter Old Moonrise from the underground for the first time ever and walk straight to his shop without interacting with anything, but he's already hostile towards me an...

Re: This guy is healthier than thou (potential SPOILER)

My question is after the portcullis closes on you and you move past it, is it shut, permanently forced open, or just open and functioning normally? It's shut and can still be opened and closed normally, in fact I reloaded the file and got 2 darts instead, I closed the gate on myself from afar and t...

Survivable

Once you've smashed down the portcullis on yourself and survived, can your character move in either direction? Or are you trapped and immobilized by it?! Yes, he can move afterwards, and yes I bought one dart for the sole purpose of triggering the portcullis from afar. There are a few reasons why I...

Re: Beat the Game, Title: Destroyer, my thoughts [SOME SPOILERS]

the biggest AAA of em all, World of Warcraft Laughing... Out... Loud... As far as I'm concerned World of Warcraft is the biggest Waste Of Time "of em all" (and I'm sure many people would agree with me). I played it for a week and got fed up with the retarded system of enemies spawning all...
