OmegaWiki scroll importer: Import Omega 0.90.4 scroll draft batch

2026-07-24T13:47:11Z

Import Omega 0.90.4 scroll draft batch

New page

{{Version box|version=0.90.4}}
{{Scroll infobox|name=Hint sheet|object_id=52|scroll_id=10|value=10|level=0|cursed=hint sheet}}

The '''hint sheet''' is a [[Scrolls|scroll]] in the Omega 0.90.4 remake. It appears as a bright-yellow {{Omega glyph|?|color=yellow|label=question mark}} until its shuffled inscription is identified. Its cursed appearance is ''hint sheet''.

== Generation and appearance ==
Once item generation has selected the scroll class, it chooses uniformly among all 24 scroll IDs and copies the selected definition. The class definitions are neutral by default. Thirty unidentified inscriptions are shuffled at game initialization, so the visible label does not reliably identify this type between games.

== Data and mechanics ==
The definition has base value 10, item level 0, weight 5, fragility 1, and the COMMON flag. The base value is the definition value, not a promised shop price. Reading is unavailable while blind or afraid; cancelling the inventory prompt spends no scroll, while successful dispatch normally consumes one.

<table class="omega-scroll-buc">
<tr><th>BUC state</th><th>Result</th></tr>
<tr><td>Blessed</td><td>Prints one random entry from the same 96-hint table.</td></tr>
<tr><td>Uncursed</td><td>Prints one random entry from the 96-hint table.</td></tr>
<tr><td>Cursed</td><td>Prints one random entry from the same 96-hint table.</td></tr>
</table>

== Effects and interactions ==
Reading prints one randomly selected entry from a table of 96 gameplay hints. The dispatcher calls the hint routine directly and does not inspect blessing, so blessed, neutral, and cursed copies have the same effect.

Unlike most useful scroll wrappers, hint-sheet use does not explicitly mark the object type known. It still uses the ordinary read command, including blindness and fear restrictions and consumption after successful dispatch.

== Strategy ==
Read it for general information, not a tactical state change. Since BUC does not affect the selected hint, there is no mechanical reason to spend identification or blessing resources on it.

== Trivial ==
A search of public Omega and roguelike sources found no reliable creator statement establishing a specific cultural origin for this scroll's name. The article therefore treats the source-code name as canonical without assigning an unsupported reference.
