Alright, there is something wrong with 1.Arm's system of measurements... everything is measured solely by its weight, and not how much space it can take up. This is a problem--because I figured out just yesterday that I can fit an entire broom, nearly half the height of a human, into my hand-sized pipe. :o
I realize this would probably be impossible to fix since there are just so many items in the database... but would this possibly be changed in 2.Arm? Or would it be too hard?
I guess its not a huge deal if its not there. But you have to trust players like me not to experiment with putting brooms in pipes.

Yes. This has already been addressed in the blog (http://www.zalanthas.org/blogs/brideofson). I'd find you a more specific link, but you can dig through it as well as I.
Oh. Great!
How else are you supposed to keep your pipes clean?

Eat more loafs of dark, fibrous bread.
There is no Archimedes in Zalanthas.
Those pipes!?!
Jcljules WTF are you doing in your PC's apartment!?!? :o
LOL. Dude, I'm cracking the fuck up, I can't believe you tried sticking a broom in a pipe, that's awesome. ;D I wish I could have seen that.
I'm just sort of wondering what the IC justifaction was myself ;D

I just noticed that the broom weighed one stone and the pipe could fit one stone. So... I had to. Wouldn't you? It was offpeak, damnit :-[
I picture your character as a half-giant now for some reason =p
QuoteThe large, stupid-looking half-giant somehow manages to wedge a broom through a pipe by brute strength.
Holding up his broom-wedged-pipe, the large, stupid-looking half-giant says in sirihish:
"Guys! Hey guys! It's all clean, but how do I get the broom out now?!"

Heh. Nah, this was just my OOC stupidity/curiosity. My character wouldn't try to wedge a broom into a pipe.
I wasn't really being serious ;)

With things like that, I just emote that the spear is like, sticking out of the top flap or strapped to the outside of the pack or something.
It's not such a big deal.
I emote fitting everything into my character's pocket.

Or strapped to the side or top of the pack, since we don't currently have any capabilities to do that independently. (This has already been discussed somewhere else, though.)
