Thirst and Hunger Messages
Brywing Posted 4 Mar 2014

Hi Everyone,

You're all familiar with the hunger and thirst messages: You are hungry. You are thirsty.

I noticed that Aardwolf (the most popular mud in the world) has a really helpful notification when you're dehydrated:

You are dehydrated; your healing is greatly reduced.

This explains both that your character is thirsty AND also hints that to regenerate hit points quicker you should drink something.

I think we should replace the messages in the SCORE with something like this:

You are hungry. You will heal slower until fed. You are thirsty. You will regenerate mana slower until fed.

I don't remember if hunger affects both or thirst affects just mana, or vice versa but the point is about changing the messages. I imagine it would be a very simple change to the code.

What do you think?

I think

You are hungry. You are thirsty.

is spam.

You are hungry. You are thirsty.

over and over having to quench

You are hungry. You are thirsty.

drives me up the wall.

oh yeah once again You are hungry. You are thirsty.
