  floating disc, angel whisper, white wind, arcane lock, general purpose, high explosive, junction spells, bide, plague swarm, dust storm, quicksand, hell ivy, hp rain, skylight, grease, conjure instrument, drunkify, soberify

note2: the following spells simply have no quantitative effect to charge:

  detect poison, teleport, scan, locate object, summon, word of recall, exit, farore's wind, enslave, augment golem, read magic, mokuton

note3: making this improve with charge feels too abusable for some reason:

  restore mana, wizen

note4: the following pseudospells are only used by NPCs and shall not be chargeable:

   aperture schism, sumhlpspl, gas breath

note5: this isn't every spell in the game yet, there are more in magic3.c that i didn't get to

2022 Change Notes

Changes 15 June 22

Building off a new version of the GPTuna engine that brought us the Orbs of Escher and the Ancient Cave, the Dimensional Corridor is now linked. Intended primarily as a building assistant, the Dimensional Corridor lets you write a room description (or two, or three) and, overnight, will riff on your input and produce twenty similar room descriptions as output. Suffering from writer's block or just want to expand on some ideas? The Corridor is here for you!

Because the Dimensional Corridor can only accommodate three inputs per day, it is currently linked in an out-of-the-way location (it's in the Monotoli Building). If you find it, feel free to give it a spin!

-MTS

Changes 5-6-2021

The following skills are now affected by damroll:

For warriors:

  • iaido
  • hylian fencing's extra attacks
  • lunge
  • overpower
  • smash
  • hammerhand
  • riposte
  • ultra jump

For Thieves:

  • soulblade (both versions)
  • retort

For Dancers:

  • dance (when used offensively)

For people hanging on to weird skills:

  • aurablast
  • cadenza

Since the damage from these skills is nominally based on your weapon attacks, this will bring them more in line with expectations at high levels.

-Bea

  Takes one of two arguments "room" and "area"

  'mob rset reset area' resets the area of the room the mob is currently in.

-Ozlynn

Changes 5-3-2021

  • Comet Punch Fluff

Comet punch now factors in strength, dexterity, hitroll and damroll. This is gated by a requirement that strength and dexterity are at 16 or higher.

  * Hitroll slightly boosts the chance for the first punch
  * Dexterity and hitroll slightly boosts the chance for additional hits
  * Strength and damroll have a chance to give bonuses to damage
  * Dexterity and hitroll determines the chances of the strength/damroll damage bonus.
  * Successful bonuses are indicated by an all-caps message.

  • Double Image Fluff

Double now factors in dexterity and speed(EG haste, slow, fast, frenzy).

  * Skill success slightly increases with a dexterity of 16 or higher (higher dexterity = higher chance bonus)
  * Skill success slightly increases with speed affects (and they stack) (Fast, Frenzy, Haste)
  * Skill success slightly diminishes with Slow (still offset by other speed affects and dexterity)
   * Chance of the double being the target is slightly boosted by dexterity, if it's 16 or higher
  * Chance of double remaining after having been the target is slightly boosted by dexterity, if its 16 or higher
  • Bloodsuck doesn't work on players for now because it's crashy.

--Ozlynn


Changes 5-1-2021

  • Area if check
EG if area $i == 1 // is $i in the immortal area?

   consecrate_evil
   quicksand
   hprain
   sunstroke
   timewarp
   timestop
   meteo
   grease
   skylight
  • save
   EG mob rset save
   flags the area of the mobs room as changed and then runs 'asave changed'
   useful for saving rset room descs etc

--Ozlynn

  • the Pick skill will not get 'stuck' on non-portal/container objects (e.g. "pick east" attempting to unlock an easter egg instead of the exit to the east)
  • new mobprog ifcheck recentdam, e.g. if recentdam $n > 4 (returns true if $a is greater than 4, whether set by awarded xp or mob damage)
