Thread: Items carried appear in prompt

  1. #1

    Default Items carried appear in prompt

    It would be nice to be able to see how many items carried you have /max items in your prompt just like it appears on the score screen. I find myself always typing "score" to see how much i can hold. Even weight would be nice too but i don't check that as much.

    Yup, that makes sense to me and I would appreciate that feature.

    I think this would be of value for mortals.
    I think this would be scary for immortals. :P

    I think this has been mentioned before and shot down because it really goes against the 'sneakiness' of thieves and stealing. You would notice right away despite the thief's successful stealing of an item and kinda defeats the point of it.

    Agree with Anduin here, and people would make MUD client triggers to alert themselves to the change.

    Hmm never thought of it being used for that. Maybe put in a short delay between when it updates.

    Maybe have it update every tick?

    I just don't think it should happen at all. Type 'score'.

    Maybe I just carry too much, but I generally know how many slots I have free at all times...

    ...admittedly, some of me keeping my hands so full is a throwback to the 2000-ish newbiekiller days (back when I was prey) and it became a handy survival tool to be able to only be given 2 scrolls of recall at any time, so I could still macro and quaff a 3.recall and gtfo.

    That and I never like people being able to just randomly hand me too much strange stuff. They expect me to do work like id'ing it or something.
