Introduced at [[Guildfest 423]], scroll stackers allow users to {{com|PUSH}} {{tt|my <stacker> with my <scroll>}} in order to scribe multiple copies of a number of different [[scroll|spell scrolls]] into them. The scroll being scribed is destroyed in the process. Each copy can later be retrieved using {{com|PULL}} {{tt|my <stacker>}} after it has been {{com|TURN}}ed to a section. The stacker can be sorted alphabetically with {{com|ADJUST}} MY <STACKER>. Spell scrolls inside can be listed with {{com|FLIP}} MY <STACKER>, but be aware that this will close the stacker and disallow using {{com|PUSH}} and {{com|PULL}} to remove scrolls or insert new scrolls until it is opened again. |
||
Also, a common mistake is to put scrolls into the stacker. This will only store the scrolls as in any container, it will not stack them. |
|||
{{com|STUDY}}ing your scroll stacker will reveal its capacity and whether or not it is a custom paper stacker. |
|||
===Capacity=== |
|||
Different scroll stackers have different capacities. Standard festival shop stackers have 20 spell sections capable of holding up to 10 copies of a spell. Capacities for limited items are higher, with GM Auction scroll stackers having 50 spell sections capable of holding 50 copies each. |

===Custom paper=== |
||
Some stackers allow for custom [[paper]] options which mean that when {{com|PULL}}ed, you will get a {{tt|<paper> scroll}}. To change the type of paper that a custom paper scroll stacker uses, {{com|push}} {{tt|my <stacker> with my paper}} when holding a different type of paper. |
|||
Different scroll folios have different capacities. Standard scroll folios have 20 spell sections and allow for 10 copies of each. {{com|STUDY}}ing your {{tt|folio}} will reveal its capacity as well as whether or not it allows for paper customization. {{com|FLIP}}ing your {{tt|folio}} will reveal the number of spell sections it has (as it lists them) but not the number of copies it allows of each. |
|||
===Container=== |

Scroll stackers are also containers capable of holding items. Standard ones sold at festivals have a capacity of 6 length x 3 width x 3 height x 60 stones. You can {{com|LOOK}} {{tt|in}}, {{com|RUMMAGE}} or {{com|INVENTORY}} the stacker to view its contents. |

Description
Introduced at Guildfest 423, scroll stackers allow users to PUSH MY <STACKER> WITH MY <SCROLL> in order to scribe multiple copies of a number of different spell scrolls into them. The scroll being scribed is destroyed in the process. Each copy can later be retrieved using PULL MY <STACKER> after it has been TURNed to a section. The stacker can be sorted alphabetically with ADJUST MY <STACKER>. Spell scrolls inside can be listed with FLIP MY <STACKER>, but be aware that this will close the stacker and disallow using PUSH and PULL to remove scrolls or insert new scrolls until it is opened again.
Also, a common mistake is to put scrolls into the stacker. This will only store the scrolls as in any container, it will not stack them.
STUDYing your scroll stacker will reveal its capacity and whether or not it is a custom paper stacker.
Capacity
Different scroll stackers have different capacities. Standard festival shop stackers have 20 spell sections capable of holding up to 10 copies of a spell. Capacities for limited items are higher, with GM Auction scroll stackers having 50 spell sections capable of holding 50 copies each.
| Stacker | Sections | Copies |
|---|---|---|
| auction | 50 | 50 |
| MT end loot | 40 | 125 |
| LTB store | 35 | 35 |
| MT incidental | 30 | 20 |
| Blood and Gourd prize | 25 | 15 |
| merchant | 20 | 10 |
Custom paper
Some stackers allow for custom paper options which mean that when PULLed, you will get a <PAPER> SCROLL. To change the type of paper that a custom paper scroll stacker uses, PUSH MY <STACKER> WITH MY PAPER when holding a different type of paper.
Container
Scroll stackers are also containers capable of holding items. Standard ones sold at festivals have a capacity of 6 length x 3 width x 3 height x 60 stones. You can LOOK IN, RUMMAGE or INVENTORY the stacker to view its contents.
Troubleshooting tips
- If you CLOSE and OPEN the stacker it will return to the first page. This is useful if you aren't able to get back to the first page with TURN.
- The stacker is also a container. If you find your scroll "missing", try LOOK IN <STACKER> as you might have PUT your scroll in the container instead of PUSH <STACKER> WITH <SCROLL>

- STUDY:
- Examining the <stacker>, you're pretty sure you can OPEN, CLOSE, READ, LOOK, TURN, ADJUST, PUSH, PULL, and FLIP.
- Your <stacker> currently has <#> spell sections and allows for <#> copies of each.
- Your <stacker> allows for custom paper on <stacker>.
- Your <stacker> is currently configured to use <paper> for scrolls. To change this, you can PUSH your <stacker> with a different PAPER.

- LOOK: Provides the same results as READ but also shows the scroll stacker's long description.
- LOOK IN <STACKER>: [now (see discussion)] reveals items contained within.
