7 # Do not modify this file unless you know exactly what you are doing,

9 # After modifying this file, delete the "lib/data/artifact.raw" file.
11 # The artifact indexes are defined in "defines.h", and must not be changed.
13 # Hack -- "Grond" and "Morgoth" MUST have a rarity of one, or they might

17 # === Understanding artifact.txt ===
19 # N: serial number : item name
20 # I: tval : sval : pval
21 # W: depth : rarity : weight : cost
22 # P: base armor class : base damage : plus to-hit : plus to-dam : plus to-ac
23 # F: flag | flag | etc
24 # A: activation : recharge time : recharge time dice
27 # 'N' indicates the beginning of an entry. The serial number must
28 # increase for each new item.
30 # 'I' is for basic information. The tval is for the type of item, the
31 # sval identifies the subtype and the pval indicates the amount of
32 # effect the item has, if applicable.
34 # 'W' is for extra information. Depth is the depth the object is
35 # normally found at, rarity determines how common the object is,
36 # weight is in tenth-pounds and cost is the item's value.
38 # 'P' is for power information. The items base armor class, its base
39 # damage and pluses to-hit, to-dam and to-ac.
41 # 'F' is for flags. These are fairly self-explanatory. As many F:
42 # lines may be used as are needed to specify all the flags and flags
43 # are separated by the '|' symbol.
45 # 'A' is for activation. Activation is the effect the artifact
46 # activates for. The recharge time calculates from the recharge time
47 # plus a random value between 1 and the recharge time dice (if not 0).
48 # If an activation is given then the artifact must also have the
51 # 'D' is for the artifact description. These appear when the item is

56 ### IMPORTANT NOTES ###
57 # (1.) Any changes or additions to the file will have influence on randarts
58 # and may break savefile compatibility for old savegames with randarts. If
59 # using random artifacts, finish your existing game before making any
60 # changes to the artifact.txt file at all.
61 # (2.) Removing any artifact, or changing its "base" type (as defined by
62 # the tval and sval entries in the "I:" line), will break savefile
63 # compatibility for ALL savefiles.
64 # (3.) Adding a new artifact, or changing the powers of existing ones, will
65 # NOT affect savefile compatibility for games with the standard artifact set:
66 # it is perfectly safe to do this. (If your new artifact is a new kind of
67 # object, or a new one at the end of the file, you must also amend object.txt
