new anti-scamming feature for helping players

[ixfd64]

This has probably happened a quinmilliamilliatillion* times:

 

 

 

Alice: Need someone to smith my shield halves together

 

Bob (a scammer): I'll do it

 

*Bob takes Alice's shield halves and runs off*

 

 

 

So I got this new idea that allows a player to help another without any risks of scamming.

 

 

 

Whenever a player has "Accept Aid" enabled, they will have a "give aid" option. Another player can do stuff for them, depending on the location.

 

 

 

When a player accepts aid from another player, an "Aid" window comes up showing the inventory of the player that is offered aid. In this case, a player can craft for another player without the item ever leaving one's inventory. Alice is happy, and Bob gets the smithing exp, etc.

 

 

 

Here are where certain aid is applicable:

 

 

 

enchanting jewelry: anywhere

 

cutting gems: anywhere

 

cooking food: within two spaces of fire or range

 

smithing and smelting: within two spaces of an anvil or furnace, respectively

 

herblore: anywhere

 

 

 

...and so on.

 

 

 

*a quinmilliamilliatillion is equal to 10^15000003**

 

**maybe that's a bit exaggerated, but this type of scam has still occured countless times.
