This erf contains both a custom placeable and the script that makes it work. Using these signs in tandem with the DMFI language token system, signs can easily be made in any of the 13 DMFI languages using only one custom object and script. Signs can automatically be read properly by any person who knows the proper language. Any character can attempt to translate the writing using his Lore skill. Builders can easily change the DC of the translation effort for any sign. An experience reward can easily be awarded for those who successfully translate the sign, also done with a variable on the sign. Those who use the Lore skill to attempt to translate the sign are only allowed to do so with a time delay between attempts. What the sign actually says is a String variable placed on the sign, so each sign can be different without need to edit and add a new script for each one.

Everybody remember... You can also easily change the appearance of the placeable sign without altering it's functionality at all :) _________________________ My Counseling Practice in Orland
