Christmas Tree/Xanta Claws bug...

Not sure if this IS a bug or just functioning as intended, but in the past few years that I've seen you activate the christmas tree and Xanta Claws, I've not been able to get a present, be it coal or otherwise. Each year apparently it still sees whatever indicator on my character that says I already got a present, from the year before... hence I can never get a new present when the new christmas rolls around. This applies to most of my characters... Samarra, Animal, Ganelon...

I'm guessing new characters wouldn't have the "variable" set on the BIC file that says present has been recieved already. I think there should be a "clear" function, such that one's characters can get a present each year, rather than once only ever (as happened I think to me in 2010 or 2011).

If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but just checking.

As far as i know (without actually looking), it just set the var once you have recieved the present, so, yeah, you'll only ever get once on any character.

We could fix this by changing the variable used every year. Something we can try and remember for next year.

It's condition that checks through each different type present available and if there's one in possession then it doesn't allow the options.

No variables, just simple conversation conditions.

I'm curious of the presents are at all useful for anything other than having a unique piece of junk in my inventory. ^^;

I have a ship's wheel with one character... now if I had a ship... heh.
