NPC and loot editor - update2

[ChaosSlayer]

George, a small request.

With latest version of NPC Editor I noticed that 2 little buttons to add items into loot table have been moved all way to the right- and for some of us this is way outside of screen resolution area.

Coudl you perhaps move them in bewteen the 2 loot boxes? Or mayby on top of the loot box? Or perhaps make so I can use a Hot Key comob (like Alt+L) to simulate those buttons been pressed to add an item and Alt+R to remove selected item?

thank you much =)

as requested, changed the key +/- layout so smaller screens can be used. Hope it helps. Dl the newest version.

Hey GeorgeS, if you get the time, could you possibly change the loot table default for the equiped field to be NO instead of YES?

I think in most cases people would want them to be set to no and the only time they might want an item to be equiped would be if it is a weapon that they want to show the NPC as wielding. Even then, we can use the primary and secondary model settings to set that, so I think a default of NO would be best.

I would say a large number of items in loot tables would cause a bag to show up in the NPC's hand if they are equiping it. NPCs can be set to get bonuses from weapons in the rules tables, but I don't think NPCs get bonuses from anything other than weapons if they are set to equiped in the loot tables. I would have to test it to make sure, but I bet that if you put a 1000 hp bracer on them and set it as equiped, it wouldn't actually effect the NPCs stats. I know for sure that even pet toys don't even fully work for giving stats to the pets. Some will add some stats, but certainly not all pet gear will have the effects that they should.

well i guess you right, there are much fewer items that can "show up" on npc model than those that realy shouldn't (the "bags")
