2581, Mini-Orcuary
Posted by Daevryn on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
* Orcs have Skulk now; see help SKULK. This is another one of Valg's little projects that sat around 95% done the last time he wandered off and he deserves most of the credit for it if you like it or blame if sneaky orcs make you sad.

* Improved flee is toggleable now; additionally its helpfile has been rewritten. The skill has had the passive benefits mentioned for a while now and I just now realized they were never added to the helpfile. I sure hope I announced those at some point -- they were in one of my mini-orc-renovation passes a few years ago -- but I have no idea.

One more small thing for next crash/reboot or thereabouts.

Orcs have long had a reduced movement cost for moving through a couple orcish types of terrains; they now can usually move more quickly through these terrains as well, kind of like a poor man's limited-terrain pathfinding.
2588, You did announce that...

You also announced some changes to the stat edges (lug, agile, cunning, endurance) and suggested those changes might make it into the helpfiles. Never happened as far as I can tell.

They just got cheaper and some of them are now more expensive than others.

Originally they were all tied (with a couple other things) for the most expensive edge in the game, because at the time I was really gunshy about playing with racial maxes.
2584, I know this probably isn't the time for this question

But is there any way we can remove the "At Night" from "orcs can Hide in swamps"?

Love the orc love though. Thanks guys
2582, Does the orc still auto-open doors when improved flee is turned off? nt

2583, 90% sure the answer is no. (n/t)
