In short, the lessons of this topic:

Normal prayer: 3 hour wait
Bad prayer: 6 hour wait
Bad prayer to already angry god: 30 hour wait
Championship prayer to Val/Morty: 50 hour wait

I think the current design looks fine as far as that is concerned. My display is slightly larger than 1024x768 but I don't think the extra blank space hurts the display potential *that* much. Honestly, if it were me I would make it a selectable option if I were concerned about people wanting more width at the expense of the top being larger (defaulting to the current side menu, though).

...multiplayer would be asking a *lot* of jarpiain (and the devs, they still have some say in how their game goes). I'd be ecstatic at just tiled, bloody/drooly/acidy IVAN online.

Holy shit I did not know of NetTiles. Thanks lampshade, now I guess wasp/jarpiain just needs that info and we'll be golden beyond belief.

Doublepost mandated for bug reporting!

Unsubscribe does not appear to work.

EDIT: Ok, I'm wrong about it not working. What *is* broken is the button display; it still displays as unsubscribe.

Tiles unfortunately do not work through tty nor curses. It may still be possible to make it work online, but it would require a very different approach and probably a different client program as well.

With all rose quartz limbs, you get 75 arm strength and leg strength and 4 dexterity and agility. Dexterity being how well you hit and agility being how fast you move, this means you are indeed stronger but also goddamn slow and awfully bad at hitting things. Oh and you'll never upgrade those stats because artificial limbs don't get to improve like natural limbs do (unless you use a scroll of harden/change material on them to get a really good sort but then hey look at that no more healing).

Ah, citrine and rose quartz. Yeah, that info is berried in the "anything relating to IVAN you're too lazy to make a new topic for" topic. Problem is both of those have 1 flexibility (comparable to most metals) and 75 hardness (which puts them between copper and bronze in terms of how hard they really are). Not exactly long-lasting or impressive in terms of statgain.

Ah, as far as I know none of the material limbs heal themselves (except for the human flesh ones hurr and possibly the other flesh materials, but those don't come with the kind of stat changes an octiron or phoenix feather arm will). Best you can get is a scroll of repair for artificial limbs; so you'd better pick up high quality stuff.

As far as stats, it depends on the material. Metals are strong but not flexible, which means generally (for example) high AStr but lower Dex. Cloth materials are much more flexible but not as strong, so for example high Agi but lower LStr. The more Int you need to change your arm/leg into that material, the higher the quality and thus the better the total result will be. Exact stats on what you get with different material limbs does not appear to be listed in the wiki, so I don't really know that (nor would I care to research it; if you want that info all you need to do is start a wizmode game, cheat up some scrolls of change material and take notes on the stat effects of the various materials you're interested in).

That would be a pretty awesome ultimate win. If only there were a developer to implement it.
