}###PAPERS Require the same values as items of type "GENERIC", additional a "snippet_category" entry:
"snippet_category": "newspaper",
The item descriptions are taken from snippets, which can be specified like this (the value of category must match the snippet_category in the item definition):
{
"type" : "snippet",
"category" : "newspaper",
"text": "your flavor text"
}
or several snippets at once:
{
"type" : "snippet",
"category" : "newspaper",
"text": [ "your flavor text", "another flavor text", "more flavor" ]
}
Multiple snippets for the same category are possible and actually recommended. The game will select a random one for each item of that type.
