But, sometimes you want to show another paragraph or so, at the players convenience. Thus, take an approach so: When an item is examined, it shows the standard info about it, with no flavor text. If the item has a field for extended information, a message is printed that indicates this. If the player examines the time again, without issuing any other commands in the meantime, the flavor … text/html 2025-04-18T18:08:13+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki-test.cross-fire.org/user:draugthewhopper:godspells?rev=1744999693&do=diff Just some wild ideas for godgiven spells: Sorig: Holy Shock Expensive, high-level ball lightning, with godpower. Not particularly powerful, otherwise. Sorig: Divine Shock Basically, an OP ball lightning, with godpower. Higher damage and dwell time, but very high grace cost. Players must have very high WIS to fire off any more than about 1 or 2.

Then, dump them in the newbie area of Scorn, with several short tutorial quests in the vicinity. These could range from using shops, to melee combat, or even to using the postal system.

Suites like MSYS2 and MinGW are deprecating support for pure 32-bit x86, so producing 32-bit binaries maybe not be feasible moving forward. Regardless, if you can get the MinGW/MSYS2 toolchain working, the powershell script c…
