Artifact Caches (AKA "Booty call")

[FantasyWriter]

Another question since it isn't mentioned in the forage help file:

Can things be buried in the same spot that "artifacts" exist? If they can, and I'm really and truly trying to find artifacts and -not- buried caches... how does the code handle that? Is there a special command for if you're trying to find only the same kind of artifacts as has historically been forageable?

• PCs using 'forage artifact' will use the cache first before auto-generating code kicks in (where allowed).

I missed that line, thanks. As long as I can keep foraging for my humanoid pinky bone in the ruins of Steinal without having to do something "special" I'm happy.

I think more numerous rooms in more obscure places would really help with this.

I mean, maybe a few dozen, so there will be more places to go, "Aha, maybe this will be a good place to dig."

Add a couple of dozen in places close to the city states, a dozen or so in mid-outlying regions, and a half dozen to a dozen in "shit, you're either a maxed ranger, sorcerer or polymorphed to get here, dude" places.


The more places there are to hide and dig for loot, the more badass this will be.

TO clarify, you are referring to save rooms, yeah?

Any plans to add city-based caches to the game? I'm sort of in love with the idea of dead drops in an alley somewhere.

Ahem, take a closer look at those allies dude....

Are rooms that are marked only with [quit] rather than [save, quit] safe to bury things in? I'd imagine not, but I just wanted to be sure!

Tiernan for president!

It must explicitly be a save room.  Quit-safe is not enough.

Can you cache it up in the 'rinth? That's the kind of place where you'd want to hide your valuables, not carry them on you.

Wtf. Awesome. This is just amazing, and while I know some of the generalities have been suggested before, whoever figured out how to code and implement this, kudos to you good Sir/Madam.

Hmm. I return to see this. Very cool!
