New script: ;dazed-and-confused

[Tgo01]

Gemstone has a lot of items in it. Ever find yourself dazed and confused trying to figure out what they all do?

Well then this is the script for YOU!

Keep this script running and it will display notes after an item's name giving a bit of information of what the item does. Stop the script to stop seeing the information.

This is a work in progress, it doesn't yet display information for every item, if it ever will.

This is a very early release just to see how much interest there is for this script. There aren't any options or setup menus yet.

The only option at the moment is to open up the script file and change the value for this line:

use_monster_bold = true #Set to true to color information in monster bold, set to nil to not use monster bold.

Example of what it does:

In the white cloak:
Armor [1]: a spiked vultite helm
Magic Items [1]: a dull gold coin
Skins [12]: an ice troll scalp (12)
Clothing [7]: an engraved platinum armband, an opal and blue dreamstone band, a starstone inset silver neckchain, a malachite-set ora buckle, a malachite-set silver ring, a trilliant-cut star emerald torc, a carved blue sapphire buckle
Misc [1]: a piece of cloudy glass (Collectable)

You glance down to see a piece of cloudy glass (Collectable) in your right hand and nothing in your left hand.

Yeah it makes the menus at shops look ugly. You'll get over it.

Let me know if there is any interest in me expanding on this script. If not then I won't bother devoting too much time on it.

Cool script. I'd use it, but how is that not a total nightmare from your end?

Total nightmare to write it you mean? It’s a lot of items to add, which is probably why it will be a work in progress for a long time; I’m just gonna add things as I think of them.

For things like reagents and collectibles I just had to copy and paste the information from Lich’s data file thingie.

Mostly just the neverending list of items to add to it, yeah.

Yeah it's gonna be a lot of items to add. I figure people can submit item names that aren't currently tagged and give a brief description of what the item does and I can just add it to the script.
