Readable (Or interactive) Objects

Maybe we could make things (like signposts) interactive by creating an NPC with the object tile as the image? i.e.: To create the signpost, we could just make the NPC (facing south, I'd say) and set the image the same that the signpost is...

Dunno if it's actually possible to implement.

It is indeed doable. It has been suggested before but I gues that since they are working on a new server adding it right now would be a waste of time.

It's a waste of time only when it's done by somebody who could be working on something more useful. But I think it would still be nice if Irving would give this a try. :-)

Signposts can be implemented as NPCs with one frame of text and without any interaction. Quite trivial. All you need to know is the first "hello world" example of an eAthena scripting tutorial.
