No, you can't use 'break' in one script to affect a loop in another script. Aside from that, I can't tell what you're asking. It's really hard to tell what going on, especially since menus are involved. Instead, here are a couple hints for ways to do flow control between multiple scripts: Firstly, y...

For all script commands which take an NPC reference as an argument (walk NPC, wait for NPC, etc.) using NPC ID number X is equivalent to writing "npc reference (X, 0)". Could you be more specific? Which part of your script isn't working? Does the second script work? I didn't see anything w...

You said "inventory and equipment" was on the goal list though. Time attacks are something I want to do, to make this game stand out a little from all the million Nethack clones. There are no Nethack clones. :( If it doesn't have kitchen sinks, balls and chains, and rubber hose, then IMO i...

Is it really an improvement to remove the hero's (Flynn's?) gun? The rest of the hero sprite is definitely greatly improved, except the boots in the 2nd frame are inconsistent with the rest (and that looks like it'll be an odd walking animation).

Cool! Will it have slimes? Time-paradox attacks? Is it a castle? You have scrolls and potions, but not an inventory? By the way, how is the libtcod python wrapper? Last time I looked at them a couple years ago, I thought they were terribly unPythonic, and I planned to create my own better ones. That...

James means "while(true)" instead of "switch(true)" of course. But the later would actually work if you replaced the 'if's with 'case's! But I wouldn't suggest doing that, because I'm thinking of making future versions of HSpeak forbid cases containing expressions. (I'll probably...

Great! Go here: http://rpg.hamsterrepublic.com/ohrrpgce/Special:Upload and upload your sprites as individual images. While the wiki recommends uploading files in PNG format, I think it's fine to use BMP instead, since all graphics except tilesets and backdrops are tiny even in BMP format. Then edit ...

Neat! So I take it that the builtin status menu is gone? I'm curious to know whether the abilities and skills are inspired by the cellphone Doom RPG, DoomRL or something else, or are entirely original. I'm not sure if I understood you correctly, but I think it's a bad idea to allow players to put po...

The problem is "key is pressed". What you want to write instead is if (keyval(key: esc) >> 1) then ( # menu... When you press ESC, this will only return true for one tick, and then return false until key repeat kicks in. I've been meaning to ...

Yes, please do upload it to the wiki! You can link to it from here at least.

In fact, maybe I should just add the GIMP palette to the import/Master Palettes directory.

Changing the painting to be OHR-themed could be assuming, though personally I wouldn't change the rest of the textures.

I think by "HotOHR tie-in" I understood soemthing other than what you're thinking of. I meant take a dungeon out of your game and package it into a self contained game; not entering both into HotOHR, because that would assumably run you afoul of the 'original entry' rules. To be honest it ...

Are you using gfx_sdl or gfx_directx? The current backends are shown at the bottom of the .rpg browser, and if you're using gfx_directx you see an "Options" menu when you click on the top left window icon. If I remember correctly, last time that bug was specific to gfx_sdl (and was a bug i...

This is something I know nothing about, so I don't know what to say. What other indie games markets are there? But is it your intention to focus the site on selling games? I would think that not too many game authors around here would take you up on it, that's the main problem. Almost no one polishe...
