Title: Items dropped on hazardous terrain.
Post by: Zi on January 16, 2009, 21:16
Right now there is no way to tell items dropped on lava or acid (because you killed an enemy carrying them over/near such areas) have lava or acid underneath.  The only way to be sure before going to pick up those power cells, perhaps, is to not have picked up a computer map, and lose line of sight to the area, and see what the terrain is then.  Even using a "look" at the particular spot only tells you an item is there.

Ideally, items wouldn't drop on dangerous terrain, the same way items don't drop on other items or in walls, but at the very least, it would be useful to be able to tell if there was dangerous terrain underneath a dropped item.

Edit: Never mind, it seems there's another topic on this.
