Re: Character Concepts

I have three, with which I am going to try out the three different orgs.

1. An Elgan engineer, who used to be friendly, but having been betrayed over and over is now bitter and cynical and the only creatures he cares about are his bots. He might be a merchant, maybe a mercenary, but either way it's all about the money.

2. A Jin nanoseer who pretty much worships death/oblivion/void kith. She is a mercenary, for the thrill of battle and for the sake of bringing death. She is reserved, but does have interest in helping other people become better at killing, particularly nanoseers.

3. A W'hoorn scoundrel, following in the footsteps of her military mother, joins militia or government military for the sake of righting the wrongs and protecting the peace. She's basically a knight. Honor! Valor! Justice!

Right now my favorite is the Jin, but I am eager to see how they actually play out and how the orgs feel as well.

Re: What's the launching point for new characters?

You'll start as a down-on-you-luck spacer heading to a location because you heard of a job. How you got down on your luck, well, that's for you to develop! Escaped slave? Rich kid cut off from inheritance? Business guy who lost it all on a big trade that didn't pan out?

Re: Combat and Wetwiring

We've got a focusing ability, so you only see the messages of your opponent if you turn it on. Additionally, you can optionally turn off the flavor messages for abilities/attacks so all you see is a concise, short messages about what's going on.

So if I was punching Bob:

You: Skirmishing Punch -> Bob.

If Bob punched me:
Bob: Skirmishing Punch -> you.

Re: Space-fonts

We have been working with the Mudlet team to support server-supplied fonts in Mudlet, so we will be supplying a font to you for rendering the space map - maybe we'll include the Aurbesh one just for you, @zacc !

Racial names

I've had (more than a few) requests from people asking to provide some examples of racial names to try and help people figure out how to name their characters. So I thought I'd put some up here in a thread as a good resource for you all. If you want more information on the races and backstories, check out the wiki - https://wiki.starmourn.com.

So change it. That's why we all use scriptable clients. Modifying shop wares, including adding clickable links to buy, probe etc, is one of the first things I ever write.

They've got MXP menus to probe/buy out of the box!
