Summary

0004759: HIghlevel books leak information when unidentified

Description

_Found a metal-bound book.
_You see here a metal-bound book.
_ You see here a metal-bound book.
_i - a metal-bound book
This book is beyond your current level of understanding.

So. I got a pause when it came into view, then autoexplore skipped right over it, something it wouldn't do for any other book. The words "a metal-bound book" have been in highlevel purple since the very first instance.

That's a lot of info leak, and if we're going -that- far, we might as well have books just show their titles.

As an aside, it's a pain in the ass to get to the trunk version on CAO. On CDO, it's as simple as scrolling my PuTTY window up a couple of lines. I'm not even sure if that's the right version listing, it's just where the backup saved.

(0015264) Galefury (updater) 2011-10-16 22:55	I noticed something like this too. Vehumet had gifted me annihilations a short time before, and when I found another book of annihilations on the floor it wasn't marked for autopickup. Unlike Kyrris I could actually read it, but I'm not sure if only because of Vehumet worship or because my skills were high enough.
