Club Redstone is one big noisemaker, but only if a chicken or something gets inside-- but maybe you mean some other noisemaker that was added after the last time I visited Wallachia

And yes, The End maps are awesome :)

Very nice!

I am currently way the heck out in the deep reaches of The End trying to find an Eltrya, and I miss Wallachia!

Catt completely ignores the magic missile as her Ring of Shield neatly absorbs it. "What a stupid way to make a door open!" exclaims Catt, at the middle-pivot door. She checks it for traps. If she finds any she will attempt to disarm them. If not, she will just try to open the door, cursin...

Oh, by the way, I just remembered that Catt has been wearing slippers of spider climb all along-- so when her air-walk wears off (how much longer do I have on that?) she can get around most places just by walking on the walls.

The syntax error is because you cannot pass any arguments to the script when you write @scriptname There is no way to pass any arguments to a script that is being triggered by a timer, other than the timer id which is automatically passed to the first argument. However, we can probably come up with ...

Sharn The teens squeal and shout when doused with water, but they get out of her way, and seem quick on the uptake understanding what Sharn is doing. The falling water douses the flames on the east edge of the burning building's roof with great hissing and steam and black soot-filled splashes. &quo...

"Got it." says Catt solemnly, and drops Renold's potion into her haversack with all the others without even asking what kind of potion it is.

Catt examines this next area, both looking for new traps, and just getting a sense of what it looks like.

I love the idea-- probably won't manage to participate, but I still say go for it. I have been listening to a Roleplaying Podcast recently that does a lot of Star Wars campaigns and other Sci-Fi campaigns. There are a lot of fun opportunities in futuristic stuff that doesn't come up as easily in a F...

That is strange. I tested it on a Windows 7 computer this morning and it was working for me.

Yes, marionline's answer is correct if you are making your own game and want to add a run away menu option but if you are trying to just play someone elses game and your "ESC" key is broken, then no, there is not a built-in alternative button for that, but you can use the "On-Screen K...

it is: string sprintf(id of string to create, id of string containing format, value) But I just spotted the other two problems in the script. "get item name" requires a string id. and %d embeds an integer, but you need it to embed a string with %s string sprintf(0, ...

"string sprint" doesn't allow you to use the same string ID for both the destination string I'd and the format string ID

I usually write it like:


Code: Select all

string sprintf(0, $1="Formatted value %d", Val)

I usually think of the camera as being an invisible rectangle the same size as the screen, which determines your view on the map

It is not a part of the slice hierarchy, even though it is capable of following one.

"You want me to go with, Reny?" Catt asks, getting ready to go with Renold no matter what he says
