Yup, there are a lot of those one-liners.

My personal favorite so far:

Code: [Select]

objuse.c (392)

// If mission difficulty is low, returns TRUE on objects

bool obj_too_smart(ObjID id)
Handling which object classes should be hidden on lower mission levels.
In short: The lower the level, the less literate the hacker is seen
