The stuff that you find does, when you give it to a merchant to be appraised / identified. some stuff you know the worth of, like rope or barrels or hammered-iron-rings. but other stuff, like the value of this bracelet, is harder to know if it glass. so.... take it to the guy whose seen real diamonds, and he'll tell ya how much you learned when you found it last. item A is found on a monsters body item is sold to a vendor for 50 copper item A is found on a monsters body player has learned 25 deca-levels since last selling to vendor. therefore item is worth 75 copper. player earns 75 extra material points. item is worth 75 experience points. level up every thousand or twelve. slow down the attack speed. make characters gain bonuses for movement positiony. start from always and work down to fewer. talent points can be generic if your character is built with abilities. players don't need to press buttons to be engaged. They can just guide and see. I love auto-battlers like Dominions 6 and Legion TD 2 which is based on WC3 mod! monsters should just... wander the world. Don't spawn them randomly, well, instead of a radius around the player, do a radius around the map. then, they walk through a random point, when they leave the circle they angle- -reflect back in, DVD logo style. if there's deadly monsters, there's deadly players, and PVP is always on. low levels should get bonuses to stealth (an ability everyone has) there should be civilians walking around. They can be armed or in caravans... follow roads, or not... monster hordes should spawn as a flock - when an elite enemy is drawn, let the game create several of their minions which follow around. Whenever a monster meets the swarm, they will join it, growing bigger and bigger... hopefully, attracting players who want to fight and slay them. greater rewards are more enticing...! more power is it's own reward. I think that weapons should have like, 3 durability? and armor like 5. then, it's broken, and your character has to abandon it to survive. or, sell it to a vendor, or just... whoever comes along. if 5 people open the chest and don't take the item, then the item disappears... every time a player opens a chest, a bit of wealth appears. every time they spend it? they get stronger, and it disappears. life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds the life of wowchat is the life of continual strife, but it doesn't have to be so. The land itself is alive, and the monsters are eternally of woe. you must free them, so that their souls may return to the land, and be born of peace and plenty rather than horror and -- stack overflow -- to do this, you slay them, finish their morthly remains, and let them break down and decompose into dust. Pleants eat dust. dust becomes what we eat and breathe. we, eventually, purify karma. this is our duty. vial of woe behind us. flower of renewal ahead. what we bear is savage sanctity. every time a monster kills a player they gain one of their abilities each time they're spawned. The player can keep the ability too, it's just... the monster will learn. Then, whenever a player levels up by slaying one of them, the spell or ability is unlearned. Symbolizing the players struggle to defeat them, and finally learning a way to overcome. when your character dies, you have no opportunity to release - instead, you just jump to the nearest NPC character which is an adventurer agent smith style. [I don't know about that one...] the players can pick any race, but if they pick undead, they can turn into a ghost when they die. The ghost can wander around and respawn wherever they want. Night Elves can wander around as a whisp (not in spirit world, real world) and do a beam attack like in Legion TD 2. Not enough to kill monsters, but enough to help another player survive. They can also cast rejuvenation, which heals about as much as one monster's damage input. if they get the killing blow on a monster they can level up and deal two monsters worth of damage and heal for two monster damage input. on the third time they don't get more damage or healing but they give a buff to all other whisps in the area that increases their attack speed by 50% and increases the tick rate of their rejuvenation by 50% - fourth time they level up they're free, and they get kicked out to the login screen. what if... vehicles that looked like characters and that you could jump between with the right-click of an item?

You should be able to move them around with keyboard commands. They should be your primary action type, aside from dark purple bolts that sap health, often targeting the nearest ally in need of health to the target. How much health? Doesn't matter, it'll target them just the same. So long as they have at least some missing. Could also cast dark hexes or boons. Boom, three talent trees: dark volts, support spells (never healing), or curses (never damage dealing) But remember, most of what you do is targeting your allies. Drag, drop, now a target gets [inspirationed, but pronounced "healed"] Alternatively, move "attack my target" to the minion type and they'll do as you move. "go-to". "circle this target and attack intruders". "go man the nethermines". "yes... YES! More monsters i know how to raise. They're all accessible at level 10 but they cost more each than a level whatever adventurer could afford. You can definitely get all of them by like, level 30 or so. After that its learning ranks to raise higher level ones, and boom free undead army risen from the bones of your ally's slain." ... Anyway, could be fun to briefly possess one of your bones.

I'll help with the imagination part. when I think of housing in the modern era, I naturally think of houses. In the past, the rural and semi-rural areas of the world rarely received the attention of revolutionary fervor - rural people were more spread out, so it was harder to disseminate information, and they tended to work jobs that required more manual labor and less intellectual or cognitive work. however, that dynamic is less and less apparent in the modern age, especially in the suburban biome. people are expected to work cognitive jobs from home, or at least to be able to. coordination is just making sure that everyone's attending their meetings on time, or didn't you know? management has more to do with direction and guidance than disciplinarian. though some people need to be disciplined, for sure. a suburb is interesting to me because the distance between buildings is not that great, and there is quite a bit of duplicated capabilities and equipment. every single house has a kitchen, for example, but so too is every house equally far from a communal canteen or cafeteria that just. doesn't exist currently. sure, someday we'll have public transit taking us from our doorstep to our roles and we won't burn time waiting on busses. sure, someday we'll have autonomous drones that deliver goods to and fro but right now we just have our bicycles and purses. [backpacks] communal anarchism works simply to me. yet everyone does it different. I'm sure that some people will surround themselves with a cloud of rules, specifying this-or-that and ensuring that so-and-so always has what they require. that's great. I applaud them and their errorts. everyone does things a bit differently, it's true, but I sure hope that we'll all start from a template and speciate from there. much easier to find common ground if you can say "okay so normally it's like this, but we do it like this because of reasons ABC." what if there were doors between the fences? what if there were no fences at all in spaces that could combine to form green open spaces? what if there was a grocery store at the end of every street, and they stocked all your favorite goods? what if there were 3 or 4 houses on the street that were turned entirely into kitchens, in each and every room, and they were constantly staffed and constantly making whatever the chefs wanted with whatever materials they had and put out onto the banquet feast? what if there were wandering troupes of mages who cast spells on houses that cleaned them ritualistically? ... or just, y'know, maids, don't gotta make it weird ya weirdo. ... my point is there's sooooo many different cool things we could be doing. I'm not going to list ALL of them. just the ones that come to mind. I really don't like checkpoints. you may feel safer, but you never know when you or your children might want to evade those checkpoints for some reason. you can't predict if the situation is sinister or dire, you just have to trust that security will be your blanket that covers you from the outside world that doesn't care about you. there's a town like that in The Parable of the Sower, a great book by Pearlescent Guinevere. It doesn't exactly turn out great for them, but when it proved to be unnecessary they adjusted and moved on. humans are remarkably flexible. I know everyone has their favorite spork - so just make that part of their responsibility. everyone has to tend to their stuff, and that's fine. that's normal. I don't mind taking care of my cats or plants, so why would I care that I needed to make sure my bookcase wasn't in the sun? that my clothes shouldn't be in a heap, (though actually I like them that way, makes it easier than drawers because drawers must be opened to see what's inside and I always preferred not to make unnecessary noise TYPE TYPE TYPE) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╧════───────┘ -> file: messages/1000 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────── Question...

There's also file:flush(), but that doesn't seem relevant to what I'm looking for, because I'm working with lines and not files:file:flush ()* Saves any written data to file. there are no more references to flushing, nor outputting of input nor output. this manual sucks. ah, well, back to vibe coding I go. EDIT: at least it's all on one page.

When called with a file handle, it simply sets this file handle as the default input file. When called without arguments, it returns the current default input file. In case of errors this function raises the error, instead of returning an error code. but... still no idea what io.flush() does. There's no arguments, so I guess it calls flush() on the default input file? what the heck is an input file?6.8 – Input and Output Facilities The I/O library provides two different styles for file manipulation. The first one uses implicit file handles; that is, there are operations to set a default input file and a default output file, and all input/output operations are done over these default files. The second style uses explicit file handles. that's helpful I think. I'm gonna take a nap or something, snuggle cat

I had a really great thanksgiving. I was on top of the world. Then, I found that a piece of art I had made which was one of my favorite pieces I had ever made might have been lost because someone didn't like me. I became despondent and started thinking about metaphysics. I got hit by a spite spell, and the tricksters behind the curtain twiddling the knobs and dials of the challenges presented to me or whatever were like "ah but what if we twisted her" and I'm like "ah I feel immense magnitude of emotions and now suddenly they're buffer overflowed and flipped around to negative two hundred thousand or whatever" ... sorry to my journal.

They ask why, more than how. They are interested in creating new branches on the tree of progress, of forging new possibilities and developing new fronts in the war against the unexplored. Foundations are just as important to a house as it's roof. However, no house is complete without walls, so each degree program would have both. They could share some classes. The cutting edge still needs a bit of a foundation, and there surely are opportunities to practice the fundamentals that both would appreciate.
