1 pippijn 1.1 This file explains the 'ITEM_TRANSFORMER' (163) item type.

3     Last update: 2005-07-19.
4    
5     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.
