Quick question... did you have a mechanism for informing the player
that they were still looking for ore? Did a meter tick by? Did you
show the player periodic messages? Did you just cause a wait state
similar to standard Diku MUDs?
I'm also curious to know if you had a problem with people thinking
they were lagging instead of still looking for ore. I know Diku has
that problem with the longer wait stated commands.
The idea provides a nice solution to command spam and would (over
time) cut down on bandwidth usage. It would have been nice as a
Miner/Lumberjack/Blacksmith/Fletcher/Tailor in UO if I could have
just clicked on the 'Go until empty' option and used up the availble
vein/tree/ingots/wood/hides.
Ok, maybe that wasn't so quick. :)
