new new update with some minor changes, ignore the previous one if you saw it already
Hello my trapped subjects
All hints should be sent out and up to date!
A few clarifications I want to make - this first one has not been an issue yet because you guys have been pretty good about not spamming, but I have added this to the OP now:
To prevent spamming actions, each team is allowed only 2 mistakes a day. You can submit as many (correct) actions and combinations of items to me still, but if your team sends in 2 bad actions that don't result in progress, then you are out of moves for the day.
And secondly, I've told a couple of you this when I'm sending out hints and you have investigated something clue-adjacent, but so that it's out there for everyone:
If you investigate something close enough to what a planned clue/dud is, I will give you the clue anyway, so that saves you some time and investigations - usually this comes up when it's part of the same tile or item unit.
A few examples that already happened:
• When Arcaneum investigated behind the couch, I gave them the clue that was associated with the couch, so when Kitty later investigated under the couch too, I let them investigate something else for the day since Arcaneum's search was sufficient for that area.
• When gimmepie investigated the tissue box, I gave him the hint for the dresser because that was just a decoration on the dresser tile - that will also be the case in future rooms for future reference, like for example if there is a table with four chairs around it and something on the table, that is just one unit and your team will not then have to investigate the table and chair #1 and chair #2 and so on
• When Cubeth investigated the sink, I gave them the whole hint/dud for the mirror/sink because I counted that area as one unit.
Hope that makes sense! Let me know if you guys have any questions about any of that, or any mechanic of the game, of course.
