Starting food

Postby Decimatus » Thu Apr 07, 2005 11:48 pm

Could you give our new characters about 400 carrots so that they aren't suddenly out in the wilderness with no food in sight? :P I have about 3 characters now who either need to learn to eat wood, or walk for days to the nearest town.

Our characters are 20 years old, they should at least have some small amount of possesions when we take control of them...

Everyone spawns without food.
Everyone always has.
And yet, cantr remains populated.

Riverworld

I'm reminded of Riverworld (Philip Jose Farmer) where characters were spawned naked, with only their grails.

Another historical reason not to do that is that it would make newspawn-farming profitable.

That's not a comma splice.

Don't pull out the red pen unless you know how to use it. Sir.
