Did you remember to put a clear statement at the start of the second item?

Search for that string. The line count is a bit buggy. (At least in Windows.)

The second. All items with custom scripts are removed from your inventory when you leave the scenario.

Actually, that would leave several reasons for a mage instead of a priest:

Arcane Shield
Summoning spells
Slow
Unlock (Neccessary for magical doors)
Far Sight (Useful, but not neccessary)
Offensive spells with many targets (CoB is limited to spell level)

What 'them' do you not know where to get? Drakefyre's templates? He gave you links to them. A script file? You have to write it for yourself. A text editor? It would be decidedly odd if your computer doesn't have one. The docs? They came with the editor.

In BoA you can train in any town. You may not train while outdoors or in combat mode. The info button has always switched to 'train' whenever you have skill points that you can spend and are somewhere you can spend them.

Incidentally, I strongly encourage you to write words out in full, rather than using annoying abbreviations.

Sure about that? The spire in Nethergate is three icons high (Judging from the image's inclusion in Avernum files), and three icons exist for one pillar style in Avernum 2 (I presume the same graphic is used in 1 and 3, but am not sure). Check G724. Not sure if all three are used in the second case.

That said, I don't think it's possible in BoA.

Is the screenshot in the docs in error, then? It shows that the scenario name can be up to 30 characters, but the FILENAME is limited to 8 characters.

You may have figured this out by now, but the problem is in your script name. All custom items must be in a script named in this format:
scen_namedata.txt (Where scen_name is, of course, the name of your scenario file.)

Trying to place a custom item in any other script won't work - the editor won't look for them anywhere else.

Problem clearly given here:

Here's the code, saved in the proper scenario folder and named handgun.txt

Presuming that the item ID is a two-byte field, the number should be effectively unlimited. (You can't carry enough items to exceed the limit.)

1. Don't double post
2. Don't expect immediate replies.
3. If you're referring to magic barriers, get piercing crystals. Otherwise, be more specific.

No, the bonus is the ability strength - not the character's strength. A +0 lockpick has an ability strength of 0. The behavior you describe in that last paragraph is correct.

I can't seem to find a way to start a healer shop. It's probably something perfectly obvious that I'm overlooking, but could someone tell me how to do this? (I have a PC, not a Mac, so I can't look at the included scenarios.)
