i would be cool if we could get other stuff than books/potions/coins from
these things.
what i had in mind was gemboxes or such. or perhaps scrollboxes/cases.

You honestly expect us to carry a scroll cabinet? and gemtubes are freaking
hard to get and very much random:P

In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice, theyre not.

...no, but then, I didn't expect him to carry a chest or safe, either. From
the title of the post, it seemed like he was talking about save items (which
occur in box, chest, and safe forms).

Erm, pardon my ignorance, but didn't he mean the chests that drop out of mobs
and the loot that is in those?

Yup, i gotten a 8 slot chest from a trunk, don't ask me how that works.

Gah. What a horrid coincidence that there are save items that store books and
coins, and those are the things you get out of random dropped boxes!

Fine fine. To categorize the possible answers:
-- if you mean 'items that we carry around that store multiple things'
generally speaking, those apply to things made by mortals. Scrolls are, at
this time, not made by mortals. However the idea isn't completely impossible
either.
-- if you mean save items in your chest room that you don't carry around,
already the "specialty" ones cause a lot of bugs. I'm not keen on making
others.
-- if you mean the randomly dropped containers by monsters that have money,
commonly called "boxes", there has been occasional interest in making those
drop a wider variety of treasure items. Some coders in the past have expressed
a desire to do this, and they have generally been given the go-ahead. We
haven't seen anything yet, but it could happen. Remember those old D&D
treasure tables? Something like those.
