Bandages

Postby Peanut » Mon Jan 23, 2006 10:49 am

Why not a healing food (type?) like bandage?
It can be made from cotton string. (maybe even hemp or wool?)

It can be made with a loom?

And i might as well suggest,
Elastic bandage (needs rubber in the production process?)

antiseptic bandage (needs perhaps a solution from the alchemist table?)

Along the lines with the ideas I was sharing here :) I like this idea. :wink:

Good idea, though we should probably change the event text - "You eat 17 grams of bandages to gain 14 strength" is a bit awkward.

The ratio seems about right, tho. ;)

/Hellzon - likes bandages. Kind of like prepared food compared to raw vegetables, yes?

*he dribbles at the thought of marinated bandages lightly sauted with lime and cheddar*

Just change it to 'use'. It's generic enough to apply to everything.

How about if the bandage is worn instead of used, and it increases/gives the character back a natural healing rate, for several days, then it becomes dirty/worn out and is useless.

The bandages could decay only when they are worn and be unrepairable. I know its prog changes, verses the eating bandages, but I think it makes more sense.

It would cost time to implement that.

And Jos frowns upon automatation doesn't he?

All i did was suggest an easily implementable suggestion.

I don't understand how it is automation, you get hungry/eat on a regular basis and this seems acceptable. Healing on a regular basis is similar. I think when Jos refers to automation he is thinking actions that your character takes that affect others or outside materail without your immediate attention.

Your right though, yours would be a simpler solution from a programming standpoint.
