EQ Solo Server DB Updates

there are multiple instances in brother dremel's script (holy crap it's huge!) where you are looking to match exactly the same text in more than one condition. it will always stop at the first match it finds in the chain.

in the following example, if a client says "I require a Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow, good sir!", he will always respond with "Sorry, I do not have that..."

elsif($text=~/Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow/i){quest::say("Sorry, I do not have that...");}
elsif($text=~/Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow/i){quest::say("I do have a Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow, but I need a Golden Long Spear...");}
elsif($text=~/Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow/i){quest::say("I do have a Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow, but I need a Platinum Bastard Sword...");}
elsif($text=~/Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow/i){quest::say("I do have a Carved Sedgewood 1-Cam Bow, but I need a Berserker Leggings...");}

it'll still exchange the correct items, but the player won't know what those are without looking through the perl script, which kind of defeats the purpose of the dialog in those cases.

additionally, he'll eat anything you give him, regardless of whether or not it was something he had requested for exchange since you're not using the check_handin() and return_items() plugins.

You are correct. I found quite a few duplicate named items that I have to figure out how to deal with. Brother Dremel does give back items that he does not want now though...as I just updated the zip file for that function.

With the duplicate items...I wonder how people figure out which Ancient Coin (for example) they need to do their crafting with (as there are many different ones in the database with the same exact name)? Without seeing the ID numbers...or being told you don't have the right ingredients...how would one figure it out "in game"?
