| Thing.tasteDesc | The thing's taste description. By default, prints libMessages.thingTasteDesc(self), e.g.: "You taste nothing out of the ordinary." |
| Thing.basicExamineTaste() | By default, this simply calls self.tasteDesc(). |
| Thing.dobjFor(Taste) | By default, one must be able to touch an object before one can attempt to taste it. Also, although one can logically taste most things, it's considered unlikely, therefore things are given a logical rank of 50 for tasting. Finally, we call fromPOV(gActor, &basicExamineTaste) to do handle the actual tasting. |
