Rob returns to the long-house,
"Voulton! Welcome back to the world of the living! How do you feel? Wait... Come again?"

You are correct!

load from slot kills all running scripts when it loads.

To make things happen right after a load, you have to put them in your "load game" script instead.

Oh, I see. I thought it could be used willy-nilly until it failed a check. So it is actually just a once-a-week thing, but since Rob has high performance skill, he could start it going in the morning, and potentially keep it going all day long, right? (assuming that he keeps playing while eating and...

Welcome, jhocking

This post does look a little spammy, but I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, especially if you drop back by later on and discuss unity game-making a little more.

Can you tells us a little more about the game-making class you teach?

.Rob went over to the river and unsuccessfully tried to use his magic Lyre again. Nothing happened. It would be another week before the lyre could be used again, but Rob was hoping to get it working sooner somehow. Oh, wow! I thought with a +18 in "Perform" I was always going to succeed. ...

The subscript has access to the local variables of the parent script

Also, the name of the subscript only has to be unique within the parent script, so you could have five different scripts that all have their own versions of the "append" subscript.

Rob wakes feeling refreshed, and see's that Kalar is already at work reviving Voulton. He decides to give them space. He doesn't want to distract Kalar, and he can't even guess what Voulton will feel like upon "waking up" so Rob just slips out of the longhouse and goes to feed Stumpy. Aft...

Another cool thing about the slice method is that you can press F8, open up the slice editor, and inspect your array :)

Some day we will have real arrays, but for now, there are two different ways that I like to do fake arrays. The first method is probably easiest, but it requires that you set an upper limit on the size of your array. For example, suppose you are confident that you will never need more than 100 eleme...

"So they are just massing there, and not coming any closer?" Rob asks. He bookmarks the Enchiridon of Kurda, and spends the last hour before sleep playing the Lyre of Building to further fortify the area with higher walls, deeper trenches, and a "bottleneck" fortification in the...

from the treasure pile, Rob puts on the Ring of the Ram , and pockets the Tan Bag of Tricks . Then he mounts Stumpy, and waits to see what will attack them. "I wish Voulton was here..." Rob says, glancing in the direction of the corpse in hopefully not-so-eternal repose in the long-house.
