No, reducing the size of the inventory definitely doesn't delete stuff past the new end, just makes it unreachable. I just checked the plotscripting dictionary and was surprised that I couldn't find a command to trigger the built-in auto-sort. I could possibly add one. It is also completely possible...

EDIT: Oops! look how much I miss while I am typing! :) Hmmm... This is tricky. A script that changes inventory size is not hard, you can use the "set inventory size" command. Triggering the script in response to equipping an item is a little more complicated. You could edit your main menu ...

There are a lot of different ways you could do hit detection. For a zelda-like game, I am going to say that you probably want to have just one main script looping every tick. When you press the attack button, you would be creating a sword npc in front of the hero. Then you would want to loop through...

Normin The Executioner beckons, and a second Executioner joins them this one has a distinctly avian appearance, with the hooked tip of a beak protruding from their long mask, and bare clawed feet rather than the usual boots. Both of them hurry towards the door that Normin just exited. "Thank y...

"Just making friends with the snakes!" Catt calls up. She decides that the tight passage might be a better fit for Slickens, or for a Holy man's magic eye, so she leaves the side-passage for the moment. Since the hide-from-animals potion lasts a little longer, Catt spens a little more time...

Catt re-ties the rope closer to the snake pit, quaffs her Potion of Hide From Animals, and goes down to explore the snake pit and the side-passage.

Catt ties herself off with Kamaron's silk rope, and air-walks down the spike pit to see if anything interesting is at the bottom.

Catt reads the whole message out loud for the others: " Acererak congratulates you on your powers of observation. Make of this whatever you wish, for you will be mine in the end, no matter what! Thou must enter the prison Or enter the mist, Only then my temple And crypt not be missed. Shun thou...

Catt takes point, so the holy men can focus on the writing and worry less about traps

"Fiiiine"

Catt puts away the battering ram, disappointed, and follows.

Catt offers the battering ram to Horace, and helps him swing it

(Can be wielded by two people at once for a larger strength bonus)

"Come on, Slick, don't jerk me around" says Catt sharply, annoyed that there is no bee-honey to be found. She puts away the empty vial, and returns to where Kamaron is working to continue checking for non-magic-missle-related traps on the door. "Ooh!" She says, remembering that s...
