This thread is for discussion of the code change for armor repair, announced here (http://gdb.armageddon.org/index.php/topic,49825.msg904229.html#msg904229).
this is kickass
\o/
I don't often repair armor,
but when I do,
I ROCK IT WITH NESSALINS CODE
This is great!
Badass.
Like x5!
That's all wyn, man. Thanks a ton.

-Armor items of similar type (see above) can now be used to repair each other.
Cool! Makes a box of crappy old armor worth its weight.
Sorta wondering why a discussion thread...Just needed to be, Yo guys, this shit is fixed now...enjoy.
Yeah, I admit I'm disappointed.
I had thought: wow ... I wonder how some people in the community are gonna manage to turn this into something to complain about. I look forward to the creative reasoning.
But everyone has let me down :'(
Yeah. My theory is:
- Never underestimate the playerbase's ability to complain about things.
- Much like a kitty litter box, it's best to keep your shit contained.
The question in my mind now is, what piece of fifteen year old code gets a update next?
Or, you know, it's a helpful place to bring up unforeseen issues and bugs with new code and to jointly evaluate whether changes are having the intended effect on the game.
Change sounds neat, look forward to seeing them first hand.
What was the "unused code"?
Be nice to see enough damaged items in game to work on armor repair for once.

Yep.

What was the "unused code"?
There were fields for values that (for the most part) simply did not get used and contributed to confusion. They were removed.
Seeing the improvement on this, I love it. As I get the opportunity to see it more I'll definitely have some feedback.
This was always a wonky skill. Great job guys and thank you.
I love the tattered flag, unfortunately I don't think there is a way it could be brought into the folds of armor repair based off my current understanding of the code. Would this be possible?
