Hi everyone
Is it possible to remove the message that is writen in the chat window when a item is moved from one character to another.
I don't mind the message when it is done by 2 players, but as DM I would like to suppress the message when I move items between the charaters.
The reason that we have implemenet a Kendar from Dragonlance and I need to put items from other players inventory to his inventory and other random items without alerting the players (even the Kendar).
Thanks
Andreas

Not really elegant but a workaround: If you drag it from player 1's inventory to the "items" window itself, it should create a copy with no notification. You could then delete player 1's item and add it to player 2's inventory from the "item" window.
If it's a generic item, you can probably even skip the "dragging it into the items window" step and just delete and add it manually.
Somewhat complicated but it might suppress the notification.

Create an item in the Kender's Inventory, call it "Borrowing Bag." Create a treasure parcel, call it "Borrowing Bag" as well. Put a link to the parcel in the description of the inventory item, and share the link to the parcel with the Kender character by dropping the link shield onto the Kender's portrait when the character is logged on.
When the Kender borrows an item, drag it to the parcel and delete it from the loaner's inventory. Then, update the weight of the Kender's inventory item. For bonus points, keep an eye on the Kender's encumbrance, ready to declare "you can only move at half your speed, because of how much stuff you're carrying."

That is a neat implementation.

Best of all, don't let the any of the players know this is happening. :)
