And by momentarily, I meant an hour.

Great! I'm putting those in the mod right now (hopefully @debugman18 is not doing the same thing ; if he were I think he'd have posted it).

Though I noticed there is no line for cooked magic beans (should they really be cookable, after all?), and there may also be a couple others missing.

@Luggs

By the way, are you and the other writers sharing a template? Because I'm always having to fix the same mistakes: "Crystal Armour" to "Crystal Armor", "Golden Roses" to "Golden Rose", "Sunflower Seeds" to "Golden Sunflower Seeds", "Red Jellyshoom" to "Red Jellyshroom" and a dangling "Crystal Fragment" which I don't know to which kind of crystal fragment it refers to (so I just ignored it). And once again the mysterious Skyflower Seeds popped up ;P.

EDIT: missing Wendy quotes:

"alien"

"antlion"

"cloud_bush.picked"

"cloud_jelly" (no character has quotes for it)

"crystal_black" (not the fragment, that one has quotes)

"crystal_fragment_spire"

"golden_amulet"

"gummybear"

"gummybear_den"

"kettle_item"

"magic_beans_cooked"

"monolith"

"mushroom_hat"

"pineapple_bush"

"refined_black_crystal"

I was going off of Lium's list. Mostly what's missing is stuff from back when we were on a single thread. I'll be doing some thread diving and will post them to add and finish up her list.

Well. Armour depends on where you live. Also. Blame my friends on any spelling errors. They messed with my spellcheck .

[debugman18]

Nope, I'm not. I'm giving all these inventory icons ground animations, as well as doing some more inventory icons.

 

[simplex]

Sure, I meant that it's wrong within our naming, since we adopted the armor spelling for the prefab's name.

I listed the missing ones in a post edit.

[ObsidianKing]

Ah, my apologies for any errors. Some of them were a result of pure habit, and others were simple human mistakes.

No problem. I didn't mean to cast blame on anyone, I just figured I'd let you (as in you, all the writers) know of them since they were being copy-pasted.

[debugman18]

Just a heads up for writers, the following things have been added, and are in need of quotes whenever you guys feel up to it:

Thunder Boards: These are boards made from thunder logs.

 

Cloud Jelly: Occasionally picked from Jellyshrooms. Possibly to be used as a fertilizer and in recipes.

[ObsidianKing]

Wolfgang 

 

Ambrosia: Is strange tasty berry. 

Cloud Jelly: Is wobbly.

Thunder Boards: Is tickly flat wood.

 

Willow

@MycoLogical

 

The Fellowship of the Bean has taken a vote, and we'd like you to extend an invitation to you to join us in our adventure! We would like you to continue writing strings for us in the future, of course! There's much adventuring to be done, after all.

 

Acceptance means you get a banner representing your continued contributions, as well as access to the private subforum, where we discuss all manner of plot spoilers and engage in quite silly behavior.

I didn't think that at all; I just thought that my job was done, I did what I was needed. I'm glad to be accepted into the group.

@Luggs

 

How are Winnie's strings going? We're almost into alpha, and I think it'd be good to at least some amount of her strings implemented for the release.

[Luggs]

@Luggs

How are Winnie's strings going? We're almost into alpha, and I think it'd be good to at least some amount of her strings implemented for the release.

So good news and bad news on that. Good news I'm almost done with the vanilla part.

The bad news is that I have exams and my graduate project coming up so I'm not going to have free time. I can finish up the vanilla part no problem but after that I'll most likely have to be absent at least til the end of May.

So unless y'all don't mind waiting til that's done with and I can get on writing them, one of the other writers could cover the RoG and U&A portions of her quotes.
