I'm pretty sure it is the error in the searching functions. But it sure is funny!

@Zefz:

Dumasses!
ANYWAY...
My ideas for the pot sidequest I just thought up:

I think that the pot should be ignored by everyone, but it WILL say something strange if you bump it, like, "The pot growls at you...Wait, what?" Rofl

, and if you jump in, there will be a message something like, "There is an evil presence in this pot...Or maybe this is a toilet." or "There is an evil presence in this pot...Or maybe you farted."; something like that Laughing

. An "[ridiculous but creepy statement]...Or (maybe)[more likely, funnier statement]" type of statement.
There would also be an old man who would walk around a given area, who would tell you, "You know the couldron? IT'S EVIL!!!! No, really, it's the spawn of a demon!!!"
And your character, if it wasn't very smart, would be all like...
Shocked

"SERIOUSLY!???"
And if your character was pretty smart, it would be all like....
Wonder

"Right." OR o_0 "Okaaaaaayy..." OR

"Whatever..."
And the old man would say, "It's true! Here, take this near it..."
And he gives you a holy item...
He says, "It will not like this [holy item], as it is evil like I said"
And you say, o_0 "Okay........" and try to comprehend this strange truth, as you are about to find out.
So you take it near the whatever, it stays still, then attacks you as you come near it with the item! When you defeat it, I don't know what would happen. Something important, maybe. Maybe it will "die", then evaporate into visible gas, then become a powerful, dangerous monster! Shocked

Interesting idea Max!

Interesting idea, but that would require we make this bug a feature that happens every so often.

Maxaxle's idea is the best! It would transform into Ghoul, Ghuul, Zombi, Vampire or something like that. AND if player is Healer, Paladin or Angel, the pot would ALWAYS transform into a Necromancer. ? ? ? Pot has done evil things... Twisted Evil

Butcher would also be good, I think...

Good to see that another one of my ideas has support! Very Happy

@Zefz: Don't forget to, at the least, add the messages when the chamber pot...er...cauldron...is being sat in.

By the way, is the Fright in Catacombs level 1 meant to be null? Because it is.

ANYWAY...
Zefz, can you put in the messages? Like...

?

The random number refers to a message file full of random messages. In other words, you would get random, funny messages when you jumped into the pot/cauldron/chamber pot.

Anyone have a list of funny messages the pot would spit out then? Something that would fit and not be too wierd.
