DSB/Special Values
From DmWiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Special values are used to refer to locations that are not standard places in the dungeon. They replace the level part of the location
- PARTY generically associated with the player party. Not used for item locations as such, but often associated with spell effects.
- IN_OBJ where one object is located in another. May be either carried by a monster, or inside a container.
- CHARACTER in a specific character's inventory.
- MOUSE_HAND held by the mouse pointer.
- LIMBO existing, but not anywhere in particular.
For IN_OBJ and CHARACTER locations, x becomes the specific inst or character ID, y becomes the slot with the object/character.
VARIABLE is often used as the slot value for putting items wherever is first available.
