The Legend of Irithed Files

version 0.1.12 (alpha 12)

This will probably be the lase alpha
for a while, possibly ever. I have a few
minor things to add before starting
a rewrite to move into beta. Those
changes may or may not warrant their
own release.

command "examine" changed to "open"

magic has been implemented

help now starts a loop asking you
to choose a specific topic

game now remembers opened containers

======================================

mapbuilder will no longer be released
with the alpha releases, it will be
rewritten for beta once the map.xml
format is completed and locked

NPC's have been added

added command "talk": initiates 
conversation with an npc

======================================

version 0.1.10 (alpha 10)

mapbuilder not current with 0.1.10,
its use is not recommended

normal gameplay does

 you are in combat with
-"flee" or "run" or "escape": chance of 
 leaving the battle and moving to a random
 adjacent room

======================================

version 0.1.9 (alpha 9)

mapbuilder not current with 0.1.9,
its use is not recommended

items are now defined in the mapfile
and read when equipping

players can equip items from their
inventory and unequip them into their
inventory

fixed a few minor bugs

added command "equipment": shows what
you have equipped ("stats" no longer
does)

equip an item which is in your inventory

unequip an item and return it to your
inventory

======================================

does not create enemies element in
produced mapfiles

players now carry gold

if there is gold in a chest, it is

enemy species are now stored in map.xml
and not the source code: when you go into
combat, it pulls the species info from 
map.xml and populates the enemy's stats
with what it finds there

"free floating" items (items not in 
containers) can now be placed inside 
rooms

health does not automatically restore
after combat

added command "stats": displays stats
	-current hp / max hp
