[CF-Devel] Python/casino stuff

       It'd be really help to post a plugin snippet that exhibits the bug.
     
     
Actually it's easy to show (my apologies for not giving enough details 
once again *writes down 'give enough details next time').
Start server, goto Goth's tavern, to the casino machine.
Drop some gold coins, and play until you get some gain.
Notice the gold coin #, you'll see it's incoherent
(you drop 50 coins, play machine, gain some, and there are only 5 on the 
ground, for instance)

       The correct method then in the script would be to call getquanity on 
     
     >
     
      the item, and then add onto that.
     
     
I think the bug is that createobject, as used in the script, is assumed 
to return a newly created object with nrof == 1. Thus using setquantity 
is ok.
Which works most of the time, but not when there is already some objects 
like the one being created (they get merged, thus nrof != 1)
