Request: No items lost at Colosseum

The other problem with that is where you would get the monetary value from. Most rare items have a value of 2GP. I just don't think it's a realistic possibility for your hack.

Well, my thought for that was just to have a generic value for any item worth 2GP (something like 2 GP = 5,000GP bet or something).  But yeah, the idea is probably still not all that practical to code.

While having the item bet lost is the penalty for loosing the match, resetting the game to get it back is also a punishment of sorts as it takes time! I'd imagine everyone does do that, unless it's some sort of challenge run, but yeah you're right.
An alternate money system would be a pretty neat alternative, I agree. Though, I'd imagine there would still be a reset if the player lost enough moneys lol.

Haha, true. An example is the casino in the Dragon Quest series.  Whenever I lost enough money, I would just reset the game rather than go out and earn it all back.  Lol.

Uh, whoops. I guess I forgot to specify in my original post that I only wanted the player to keep the item they are betting if they lose a match. Madsiur's patch above also makes it so you don't lose an item when winning a match, which means you can get unlimited of anything (including Illumina's). Can Madsiur's patch be tweaked to only prevent item loss when the player loses a match? If you win, your current item should still be traded for the new one.
