Curiosity (scissors related)

[Piateluca]

Why after using 1 it dissapears from inventory??

(also happens with Purification potion if you use it in the wrong map)


I know is not bugs, im just curious if there is a reason for that to happen

it is normal, they reappear when you change map.
You can also notice that towels disappear and reappear too after using them

Items that can be used are consumed when using them. The scripts for items like the scissors or purification potion give you back a new item (see the getitem command).

Code: Select all

function|script|useScissors|{
    if (rand(3))
        goto L_Change;
    message strcharinfo(0), "Whoops!";
    itemheal -20 - rand(Hp >> 1), 0;
    getitem "Scissors", 1;
    end;

L_Change:
    setlook LOOK_HAIR_STYLE, rand(20);
    getitem "Scissors", 1;
    end;
}

Code: Select all

function|script|usePurificationPotion|{
    if (isat("011-1.gat", 88,67))
        goto L_Wyara_Pond;

L_NoUse:
    message strcharinfo(0), "You don't know what to do with this.";
    getitem "PurificationPotion", 1;
    return;

L_Wyara_Pond:
[...]
