Pleasepleaseplease Stefan... as someone who's first language was C++, I can safely say that I cannot live much longer (nor can I make cool book NPCs) without the aid of arrays of strings. Oh, and are multidimensional arrays possible? If not, add those too. And multidimensional arrays of strings!
And, and, and this.strings (is this possible with an NPC server? I know this.flags are...)
