• first value how much
• second value maximum possible

• Each extra weapon gives a chance at an extra attack.
• The more weapons you juggle the more likely you are to drop them all, causing damage to yourself.
• Each hit is caused by a random weapon, weapons are also shuffled every tick, this shuffle is where the drop check is made.
• Dropping can be recovered but it gives the juggler lag.

• players with bounty are tagged on 'who'

• instead of killing themselves mobs go back to the place they repopped at and lick their wounds.
• mercenaries wont takes hires if they are hurt (unless you crank up the price)
• same basic idea but a few little checks and some extra code.

• You can hire same as always but mobs will cost more if they are hurt.
• Mercenary mobs will recall back to their repop room when they have finished their hire.
• Mercenary mobs will autoloot corpses and then compare all the gear with what they own, wearing all the best stuff, thus mercenaries can have a large amount of decent gear, making them harder to kill. BUT they have all the money they autolooted as well, not the hire money though, that's a bit much.

• No mobile with a descriptor can used the 'mpcomm' command.
• Mp_force temporarily removes the descriptor from a player/mobile so that they can force someone to do anything.
