How Many of What?
January 5, 2009
After playtesting for a while and then actually realizing what I was looking at one day, I noticed that my heavy-armor-wearer didn’t have a whole hell of a lot of heavy armor. I know the game, and I should be able to find this kind of thing, you know? So, it occurred to me last night while trying to sleep, that I could either search the zones directory for each instance of light vs. heavy armor, and count them up – or do this “coding” thing I kinda know about, to have the code count them for me.
The upshot being that I wrote some code to count how many of each weapon and armor type are in the game. Now, I knew there was a major discrepancy between some (heavy vs. light, swords vs. spears), but… WOW. It’s huge.
Something will have to be done.
