Trade Window Changes
Trade windows will become more secure.
You will not be able to trade a trapped item.
You will not be able to trade an item that was recently stolen.
You will not be able to trade items to a player if that player cannot hold the items.
If the items are too heavy for the player or if the items would exceed the number of items the player can carry, the trade will fail. All items in the trade window will go back into each character’s pack.
You will not be able to pick items up while the trade window is open. However, you will still be able to rearrange items in your own pack during the trade.
Derricks target date.
We're aiming for most things to be pre-BritCleanup, however, we've taken some items that are simply of convienience from post brit-cleanup such as smelting, and runebooks.
Anything that's within era is up for discussion, anything that's out of era entirely we avoid. We don't peg to a specific point in time for many reasons, but the general timeframe we target is mid to late 1999.
I think that because these changes became after the target date, and because there kind of ghey they should be reverted back to there less secure version.

You will not be able to trade a trapped item.
You will not be able to trade an item that was recently stolen.
You will not be able to trade items to a player if that player cannot hold the items.
These are the ones that gripe me.

+1 on the vote..
I've been waiting to see heavy items drop for a long time now..
I've brought this up before, but don't know what happened with the idea: Most were for it also-- even the tradesman who wanted a "Good reputation" so that they would get more business if this was implemented.

I agree with this. However, there's quite a bit of work to do to make all things related to this accurate, and it should really be done in one swoop. Another thing semi related to this is the house preview when placing, that was added around this same time.

i had forgot all about this. i remember it used to be extremley difficult to get a house placed in the exact spot you wanted it because you would only get a target cursor (i think).
