exodii weaponmaster

[GuardianDll]

Summary

None

Purpose of change

People tie too much stuff to hub 01; i don't like it
also i don't like that there is too little npcs in rocky butte

Describe the solution

add weaponmaster that partially handles weapon and armor trade; maybe in future they could do more, but man i'd rather yell at code for a week than make npc

Describe alternatives you've considered

remove it's merchant abilities, just making them vibin' here

Testing

TBD

Additional context

perfect counterpart to untranslateable dialogues of Rubik

[John-Candlebury]

Oh cool stuff.

That's all the grammar issues I see, seems like a good addition to the exodii to try and make them more interesting! Interesting concept for the NPC too, I look forward to trading with spider man.

If Rubik won't trade certain stuff he'd probably need dialog to direct you to the appropriate trader(s), with the message that they don't understand Anglic, so you'd have to communicate using gestures.
One thing you could do is to use Rubik's dialog to tell you the names of them so you could have one dialog start where you call the name of the one you address, and one for a general "Hello there". You could also have introductions, one for when you know the name of your counterpart (only presenting yourself), and one for when you make a general call and your counterpart introduces itself first and you thereafter (automatically, unless you want a rude alternative, which I wouldn't provide if I tried to write it).

Spine of a creature, meanwhile, -> The spine of the creature, meanwhile,

• &Still completely mute, it shows you something you had initially missed. The entire wall behind the workbench is full of various weapons; some as big as modern rifles, a few as large as the machine guns installed on aircraft, and one that looks like a dismantled tank turret. Melee weapons were not forgotten, from moderately-sized swords and clubs to war hammers twice the height of a human, and what you can describe only as "boots for mecha". Then it points to a sign near you that shows three things: the carved pictograms of coins, some sign you are not familiar with, and a pictogram of a bullet - all things considered, this creature is either a weaponmaster, or a weapon merchant.
• &The Weaponmaster seems seems to be polishing some armor, but they turn towards you the second you enter the room.
• &The Weaponmaster seems to be cleaning some sort of weapon, but as you approach them, they signal to bystanding worker to take the weapon, and turn to you.
• &The Weaponmaster seems to be tinkering on something, but turns their chair to you as you approach.
• Weaponmaster
• Who-… Wha-… What are you?
• [You pull off your backpack, and start to pull out items you deem worthy of trading. The weaponmaster finally looks interested.]

Hints for adding a new word to the dictionary

• If the word is normally in all lowercase, such as the noun word or the verb does, add it in its lower-case form; if the word is a proper noun, such as the surname George, add it in its initial-caps form; if the word is an acronym or has special letter case, such as the acronym CDDA or the unit mW, add it by preserving the case of all the letters. A word in the dictionary will also match its initial-caps form (if the word is in all lowercase) and all-uppercase form, so a word should be added to the dictionary in its normal letter case even if used in a different letter case in a sentence.
• For a word to be added to the dictionary, it should either be a real, properly-spelled modern American English word, a foreign loan word (including romanized foreign names), or a foreign or made-up word that is used consistently and commonly enough in the game. Intentional misspelling (including eye dialect) of a word should not be added unless it has become a common terminology in the game, because while someone may have a legitimate use for it, another person may spell it that way accidentally.
