Improving literacy?

[Rednaxela]

inscription is too easy to level though, you just need lots of scrolls to write on, and a script to dump project gutenburg (or some other corpus of text) into them.

Except it's still fairly slow to level past 20 that way even if your player has massive speed.

from server/apply.c:apply_spellbook()

Code: Select all

    if (spell->level > (skop->level+10)) {
	new_draw_info(NDI_UNIQUE, 0,op,"You are unable to decipher the strange symbols.");
	return;
    } 

it means you need to be lvl 12 in literacy to learn a lvl 22 spell.

to level up literacy, it is faster to identify spell books than other books or scrolls. i usually use a bunch of vampires for it
