Tradeskill Changes in Today's Patch (6/29/05)

[KB1]

I know a couple of things with charges that stack. One in particular my new spell Soul Orb, death orb whatever. Has 1 charge of a heal and it stacks fine.

They are sorted alphabitically now. The best way to sort I have found is to sort by quantity(click twice) so the vendor sold endless supply inventory which looks like has a null in the quantity field all end up on bottom. This will stay once clicked for every vendor you open. This will at least give you the player sold items on top and all the vendor sold items on bottom.

If you want vendor sold items on top (the old way vendors use to display their items) click the quantity thus sorting the list in acending order. This will put vendor sold items and player sold to that vendor items last.

Forgive my ignorance but why were the cultural patterns the only thing changed to stack like that ... Personally i wish ALL tradeskill items would stack to 200 my bank is hard enough to manage because of 1 tradeskill(alchemy) much less dealing with any others.

Wine from the jester aa also stacks, so it *can* be done. The limitation is that its single charge items. I see no reason why we can have 10 stackable single charge wine, but can't do the same with, say, store bought invis potions. They could do away with all the 'potion bag' things and simply make shaman made potions single charge stackable. Would make things so much easier.

The new Froglok potions are like this, stackable single charges.

As far as I can tell, sorting by quanitity doesn't actually sort by quantity... it only decides wether player sold items are at the top or bottom. The player sold items certainly do NO sort by quantity... it appears that they sort by the order in which they were sold.

I like it. I like it a lot.

But it still needs a done button... I dunno how they left that off when everybody and their brother's cousin's dog asked for it.

The new healing (and i assume the others) are one charge stackable

[KyrosKrane]

The merchant window does, in fact, sort by quantity -- but it treats the quantities as text, not numbers. So you'll see stuff like:

1
1
12
14
2
3
34
5
8
etc.

As to the potions, as far as I can tell, they stack up to 10 per slot, not the normal 20.

Son of a...

You're right.

How dumb.

Velium weapon breakdown

In forge, combine velium weapon of your choice + velium smithy hammer

Results in small brick of velium AND small piece of velium

WOOHOO!!! Let the farming begin!

[Ashewood Puppypaws]

Small correction to previous post... the velium spear gives small brick and TWO small pieces, and the velium dagger gives only small brick.

Thanx for the heads up on the sorting. We'll get that fixed (so it sorts numerically, instead of number-alphabetically (everyone go look up "neologism")).

As far as stacking and clickables. We relatively recently coded the ability to stack single-charge items. Multi-charge items can't stack for the reasons Ngreth stated. No one has taken the time to go back and make all those 5- and 10-count potions (and singles for that matter) to stacks of stackables, yet. I have heard Absor and Maddoc talk about doing it, though, it's just one of those time-permitting and prioritizing things.

Yeah, clearly is doing its compare as if they were strings, not ints.

Neologism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
A neologism is word, term, or phrase which has been recently created ("coined") —often to apply to new concepts, or to reshape older terms in newer language form. Neologisms are especially useful in identifying inventions, new phenomena, or old ideas which have taken on a new cultural context.

Neologisms are by definition "new," and as such are often directly attributable to a specific individual, publication, period or event. The term "neologism" was itself coined around 1800. It can also refer to an existing word or phrase which has been assigned a new meaning.

A neologist is a person who develops a neologism and neology is the act (or science) of introducing a neologism into a language.

That would imply that in theory Spells could be made stackable now, right?
