NEWS: GM Meraki put out a request for RECALL and Playershop Item information and properties. She’s looking for things that you would reasonably expect to show up in a quick RECALL command or playershop properties from all of us. Read on for the things she already has listed. GM Estild added: anything unique to scripts should be ignored.

Request for information (RECALL / Playershop Items)

Hey Everyone,

I am in the process of updating the system that generates the item information blurb you see when using the verb RECALL. This system is also used by playershops.

I am seeking a list of properties that players could reasonably expect to see revealed in the RECALL blurb that aren’t currently revealed.

Example: I recently fixed a bug for UCS equipment flare information not showing up in RECALL even when the same flare on a standard weapon would. Link: http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Combat,%20Magic,%20and%20Character%20Mechanics/Developer's%20Corner/view/3947

Properties you don’t need to report: I’ve already compiled the list of properties that are revealed in a full loresong (or RECALL LORESONG) but are not revealed in the more succinct RECALL. These properties do not need to be reported by players as they’ve already been noted during my review.

I would appreciate help from players. If you own an item with a property that you reasonably expected would show up in RECALL and it doesn’t, please BUGITEM and include at the start of the problem description the phrase ‘Meraki Recall Review’ followed by a detailed explanation of the property that is missing and what you expected it to say about that property.

I’ll be collecting this information over the next week or so to review and consider for inclusion. Thanks in advance!
