Comment:
I've looked into this and talked to md5 about it, we agree that this is
out of scope for ScummVM. For better or worse, the RPG-stat logic is what
makes the QFG games what they are, whether they make sense or not. I know
a discord server of QFG fans that would be upset if we started
editorializing those rules. Also, I'm not sure we could patch this if we
wanted to, and we wouldn't know what to change it to.
Ash's fan patch is the place to go to for these kinds of fundamental
improvements. The *huge* number of fixes it contains, all written by
someone who knows the game thoroughly, demonstrates what it takes to
really fix this game at a high level. You have to rewrite and restructure
entire scripts, that amounts to hundreds of changes. It's beyond we can or
should or want to do, and that's why we happily support Ash's fan patch.
(I make sure all my QFG3 script patches are compatible with it.)
