Maybe there could be an added use to the search command? While in a wilderness room you can find different items from foraging. The main idea would be to find different things to use as components, but you could find wood, or food. This would also be determined by your search skill and it would raise as you searched for things.
This could also be in a way a way of making the random progs in wilderness rooms appear (your foot wobbles, you bumb against a tree, you knock into a beehive).
Not going to list food or wood cos there so much food and only one wood.
Im going to list spell components and different ways that could maybe be added to be able to get them on your own instead of buy them. This will also include things other than the ones you could find using the search skill.
adders stomach - snakes could drop on death
some salt - command: BOIL - campfire near a water room (prob cant distinguish between salt water and normal water)
salted piece of meat - command: SALT - use salt on piece of fresh meat
beeswax - search
a scale - search or snakes, fish, etc could drop on death.
a feather - search
a slim reed - search
an earthstone - search (maybe in hills or mountains too instead of wilderness)
a perfectly smooth stone - search (same as earthstone)
sunflower seeds - search
some saffron seed - search
some horsetail hair - search or cut from a horse
Can anyone think of other things that could be found in the wilderness, maybe?
This might also be included with the post about cooking and other object transformations for a couple of the items. Also, didnt know if this would go into the skills forum or not because of the components part
Feedback is always welcome,
Thanks,
