Skill Use on an Item

When designing a mob to work on a player's items, there are several considerations:

• You need to make sure the player will get back their item, even if their inventory is full, or they are overloaded. If you do a GIVE command, and the player cannot accept the item, the mob will keep the item. Therefore, it is best to follow any GIVE commands with a DROP command.
• When charging for services, you really don't want to encourage players killing the mob to get their money back. Therefore, consider resetting the mob's money.
