Drink all the spam!

Started by Taven, July 11, 2013, 02:03:52 AM

Right now when you want to buy drinks for the bar, you have to buy them all, and then put them on the bar. It's spammy.

What if there was a command that bought the drink AND put it on the bar?

Quote
buy #01 for bar

You buy the mug of awesomez booze, and ask the server to put it on the bar.
The spiffy bartender pours a mug of awesomez booze and sets it on the bar.

Even better would be mass buying.


Quote
buy 10 #01 for bar

You buy 10 mugs of awesomez booze, and ask the server to put it on the bar.
The spiffy bartender pours many mugs of awesomez booze and sets them on the bar.


As of February 2017, I no longer play Armageddon.

I like it.

I prefer that there would be BULK options for the shit we buy a lot of. Like the flour and the wheat bundles and feathers.

Have made an IG "idea" suggestion about this before, actually. Totally wish it were possible.

That wouldn't work because there are times when there are more than one NPC merchant in the room, and that bit of code determines which NPC you are buying *from*.

Buy [item] <merchant> for {recipiant}

Still wouldn't account for all 'dat spam though.

I'm down with the OP.

I'd definitely support some way to buy multiples of a thing.

I dig this.

We should make our own thread.

Can we also have "buy mug for Amos"?  It will tell the bartender to give the mug to Amos, not yourself. 

ETA: This code should act like the dealing cards code but with for person 1, person 2, and so on.

>Buy jacket for amos

Leads to Amos receiving a jacket sized for him.

Think this has been suggested before, but I thought I'd post anyhow.

It's neat but there has to be a more general way of doing this across more commands.

Adding a multiplier to other commands to.

put 10 grain pouch

And there was some dwarf smoking spice, and I thought that was so scandalous because I'd only been playing in 'nak.


Multiples in general. Omg.

offer amos 10*bread [for] 1*sword

Eat 5 Ration - to take 5 bites.  Ever see the spam when the Byn gets ready to ride?

It would be nice in some situations where you really need to get some food in but it interrupts the flow of the RP to scarf down 4 belshun fruits.


Is that a "eat all" command though?

Eat all would be good too.  You wouldn't have to know how many bites in everything.

It's more eat whole, not eat all.  It was a afterthought.

>consume stew
You eat all of the stew.
