idea and gfx for a great update!

i had a little idea that would never get old, and would change the game in a major way, a thing almost all players want, a efficient way to get gralats that isnt boring like farming!

now here is my idea, there is a spider baddy npc that is a collector/geologist, he owns a house in onnettown (where waffles and pancakes house was) where he will buy collectable items from players! how does it work?
well you know how in era trash randomly spawns on walkable tiles on the gmap? what if there was that on iclassic, but rarer and sold for alot more? instead of trash it could be "collectables" that you press grab to pick up, they would be rare and youd need to keep a eye out for them, and they could have different rarities and selling amounts.

it would be much more fun and make more money than farming, and wouldnt be forgotten about like a one time quest.

ive made all the collectable graphics.
a green rock (just made using the stone tile on iclassic tileset)
a fossil (edit of a rock tile on iclassic tileset)
spider baddy cannonball (cannonball sprite)
lizardon scale (made from scratch)
ancient arrowhead (made from scratch)
strange ore (major edit of something on the iclassic tileset)
rubies (edit of a something on the iclassic tileset)
petrified wood (made from scratch)
bomy fossil (edit of skull on the graal tileset)

i used things that were from graals images to make sure they would fit and be small and harder to see. only rubies stand out because they would be worth a lot.

i also made a spider baddy body for the npc since the spider head is actually in the customization packs default heads.

unfortunately i cant script, so i guess ill just have to hope players like it and that someone scripts it up and likes it, i dont know how easy it would be to adapt the trash script on iera to work in this, but i think it would be easier than making it from scratch right?

ah well, i just want to be useful and contribute and make the server better, just wish i could do more..

nicce idea :3

thanks, i didnt want to do too many collectables because that could make it take longer to script it all.

I like the idea, sadly I can't see this happening its just too good to happen.

it seems so easy though!

I like this idea:/ hmm. They could use the same scripting as the Easter eggs and valentines pixie things, just change it to give you the item and then go to the store. :D

Well the iera system seems to work better as the eggs and such spawned in set areas... And only one type. On iera it randomly spawns and has more to it, meaning its easier to make the collectibles different, as the recycled items have different graphics and different prices.

TWINNY, make this idea

i dont care who helps, as long as the players get it eventually ill be happy.

:] .

I like this idea.:)

Thanks, I just wish that someone would key me in if this will be implemented or not..

good idea

its been so long since i made this... i wished it was implemented, would be nice...

adding more of something shouldn't make it take much longer to script, unless each has unique traits or something and has to be done differently besides value/graphic.

Well it would need different names for each and youd need I know how many of each and they all have sorta different values... Idk I can't really decide values that's up to the big guys.

Well I suppose making more would require more planning, but in terms of scripting it wouldn't require much more, just adding more variables and all that.

Yea I dont know why it's not being done. Don't know if there's something against it or if I'm just not pushing it enough.

This sounds awesome. Needs to be implemented.

If they do this it'd be the best update in months rofl ;D

Rufus has a lot to do... i dont think we have anyone open for doing this...

Doesn't Twinny and Skyld work for iClassic? I doubt it would take them more than an hour.

twinny left, skyld is busy alot.

Awesome!
 

The only issue that I see with this is how you would keep track of all you had and if there would be a limit to how many items because if not it could take up alot of room in a sence that your inventory would be full. Otherweise this seems like a really good idia and I hope they consider it!:D

You know what really grinds my gears? People that use the word GFX.

Anyway, nice bump, Rexx. I like the idea, Higbey.

Yes! They have to actually listen to us now cause Higbey posted it! xD

Ruby should be 1-2k but very hard to find

Great idea but i'm not sure if it would suit classic.Also not sure that Stefan , Unixmad whoever makes the decision to imply it on to the server would agree.Maybe they should just return farming back to how it used to be 'Great'.Anyway good idea and good creativity i just can't see it happening , sorry.

So, tell me; how can you make a body for a baddy that already exist?

@Ash, don't start thinking out what an item should be worth.. it's just ruining the point

i made a player body using the baddy sprites and fixed it so you can set your head as the spider head in the custom pack and have the spider baddy body and go around as a spider.

A new way to earn gralats? I love it!

And tell me what the point is you ****ing noob
