As I worked on my auction item script I found things in the combat engine code that could use upgrading. As a result I updated the targeted hit location options in combat. For those who don’t know you can often target specific locations on an enemy using:

<attack verb> [HEAD|ARM|HAND|LEG|BODY|EQUINE] [<enemy>]

Each of these might give added benefits and penalties to your attack. Most likely the THT will be increased but some might stun easier, cause knockdowns more often or even disarm opponents.

I’ve also been working on filling in the remaining features of the character system and hope to have those fleshed out and finalized early this week.

Other than that, I’ve been very busy with spring farm-work! All the equipment has been cleaned, blades have been sharpened on mowers, bushes and fruit trees trimmed and oil and other equipment fluids changed and/or checked. I’ll have to take a couple of days of spraying the fence-line to kill grasses an encroaching brier bushes but otherwise it’s all going to be a ton of mowing.
