Slime Salad

Tell me if this is possible. I want to write an on-step script that reads what zone the PC is currently in and then randomly displays thematic text boxes based on this zone. I'm pretty sure it could be done and I think I can figure out how. However, I'm not at a good point in development to begin ex...

thanks guys, I'm just a re-uploading a new version - found some last minute bugs in there (wrong linking doors!!). I was just going to tell about those doors. Glad you found them. I completed the game. The graphics, music, and overall atmosphere were engrossing. However, I wish the world was more e...

I've said this before, but it's always a good idea to do a quick web search for any title you plan to use. You'll notice all of my games have weird titles for this reason.

Another question. Is there an easy way to dump of all my text boxes to a text file? The reason I ask is because it would be much easier for me to proofread and edit them this way. However, I do not need to import them back into OHR.

Thanks for your answers, both of you. I use a lot of NPCs that are disabled by tags so I think I will end up using TMCs method more.

While the core gameplay and mechanics are similar, my edition diverges from the original in several respects. First is that, thanks to the magic of Computation, the maze is procedurally generated and therefore guaranteed to be possible. Second is that the monsters are mostly distinct and combat is ...

How can I tell how many NPCs I have on a map other than counting them by hand?

To do this right, I would really need to play all of the awesome games I never have. For instance, I've been meaning to try Tales of the New World I and Vampire's Curse or years. However, I don't have time to seriously dig into those games in the next week. #1 Spellshard: The Black Crown of Horgoth)...

Whoa, slow down. Lifting the 300 NPC limit won't be hard, just need to replace one simple file format with another. Could be less work than scripting an elaborate workaround like that (which is frequently the case. Wouldn't it be nice f users could implement their own features? :) I'm not sure I fo...

While we are discussing limits. How many NPCs can I use on a single map? http://rpg.hamsterrepublic.com/ohrrpgce/What_are_the_limits_on_various_things%3F#NPCs I read that, but I didn't know if the wiki was accurate or not. I'm creating a game with a 1 giant map. I will have to be very careful becau...

While we are discussing limits. How many NPCs can I use on a single map?

Then, you can export your tag names to your .hsi file, open it up in a text editor, and to a search on it whenever you need to find the name of the tag you need. This is a good idea. I will probably use it. (You know what? I should totally add the ability to search for tags by name right into the t...

Likewise, (disregarding the Final Encounter) each skill is used an equal number of times. I should point out that I was counting the amount of times each skill let you skip an encounter. There are certain uses which I did not count (for example, there is a scenario involving the merchant which is e...

Are you worried about running out of tags? Or are you just trying to keep your list of tags uncluttered? If your concern is the first, let me remind you that the current version no longer has a 1000 tag limit! You can use up to 16000 tags. I'm worried about the organizational hassle of having so ma...

Is there anyway to make the Destroy NPC command permanent? For instance, when I save/load a game, I want NPCs who have been destroyed to stay destroyed.

I know I can do this with tags, but I'm trying to avoid that to cut down on the number of excessive tags this game will be using.
