In SI, if you use a healing fountain on any bottle shape, it turns it into a yellow healing potion.

2 Yellow
3 Red
4 Green
5 Orange

And if the potion is not used within 500 ticks, it disappears. Very clever.

WOW.... did not know that! was it that way in the original too or just Exult?
when you say bottle shape, do you mean potion shapes or actual bottle like ale/wine etc?

Exult uses the original Usecode so it should be the same. I didn't know it either!

Also, after the Banes are released, any non-healing fountain will turn blood-red when used.

Are you serious? I can't believe how cool this is! Never tried it. XD

Yep, just tried it a few days ago with the healing fountain in Moonshade. That was pretty awesome. Almost 25 years of owning this game and I'm still discovering new things about it.
I wonder if the red fountains can also be tweaked to turn bottles into poison potions, since that's essentially what happens if you drink from them.

The post-Batlin fountains, if not healing, will turn red and allow you to make poison potions.

Neat, I'll have to try that when I get to the post-Batlin part of the game.

Another new finding today. If you have slimes nearby when you use phosphor to turn on serpent lamp posts, they die.

I've also fixed the reagent code for FRAME_PHOSPHOR so when used on the unlit serpent lamp posts the same light effect and placement used in the Dark Path is also created.

As am I. For over a decade I thought I knew everything about these games, but people just keep on going giving new interesting information.

I'm stumped how shapes that have bodies connected don't use them. Sea serpents, slime, bats, etc. Exult must have special case code for them?

The slimes now leave green blood behind when killed this way.

Bumping this "research" thread again with a scroll:
else if (quality == 63)
{
say(" I know I did evil things whilst I was under the control of the Bane. In order to atone for the harm I have caused, I shall sacrifice myself to the Crematorium. If mine ashes can help restore the balance, then I might be partially redeemed for mine evil acts.~~");
say(" Farewell,~");
say(" Dupre");
I'm glad they didn't hide this scene as planned!
