get support from Alice after discovering plane crash #431

Closed scrom closed 8 years ago

when player discovers crash site, this should trigger alice hunting down the player and telling him the zombie apocalypse is coming. - her book and vial would still need to be taken.

as part of this, I'd also like to make it necessary to only be able to "inject" venom - therefore needing player to collect it and fill a syringe. (at the moment it's just drinkable).

making a requiredContainer for venom and marking it as not edible will ensure it can only be collected. a custom verb on the venom of "inject" would be needed - not sure how this would work. "use" for the syringe would perform the same action. Possibly this would need a mission to make it work

injecting would cause minor pain and possibly a short-term strength impact. may need to consider if injecting once will always be sufficient as well

marking venom as component of syringe and once in the syringe, the syringe could be modified to responde to venom as a synonym.

Work now started on this - although the triggering of alice hunting player down doesn't see to work yet. More testing needed.

Once that's working, the venom needs to be altered to not drinkable, requiring the hypodermic and combining with the hypo to be a new injectable item that transfers antibodies (quite a bit then)

all done and tested :) that was a lot more work than expected
