An item transformer is simply applied, after having marked a 'victim' item. |
| 6 |
If the victim is suitable, it will be transformed into something else. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
To make an item transformable, you just have to fill the 'slaying' field. |
| 9 |
The syntax is: |
| 10 |
slaying slayer:[yield ]new_item[;slayer:[yield ]new_item]* |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
with [] denoting optional part, and * any number of preceding []. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Example, for object apple: |
| 15 |
slaying knife:2 half_apple |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
This means that, when applying a knife (non existing item with type of 163), |
| 18 |
one 'apple' will be transformed into 2 'half_apple'. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Pretty simple, hopefully. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Transformer uses food value to count how many times it can be used. 0 denotes |
| 23 |
unlimited uses. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
The 'slaying' field of the 'transformer' is a verb used to construct a message. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
More complex imaginary example: |
| 28 |
Object water |
| 29 |
slaying bowl:full_bowl;paper:wet_paper |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
if paper and bowl are 'transformer' items. |
