I think scripts will be erased from items at the end of scenarios anyway, so clearing the number won't be neccessary. As a way around the targetting - I have a feeling that scripts may be able to see what monsters are in the vicinity (I remember seeing something like this in some of the geneforge scripts). What could be done, therefore, would be to get the numbers of nearby monsters, and then randomly select one. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

Other terrain sets would have to be custom graphics - for example Quintessense (for BoE) is based in a diamond, with cool bluey kinda terrain. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

Or the scenario designer could program the AI for a monster to sometimes attack magi/archers (acting cleverly, sortof) and sometimes attack whatever is nearest (acting instinctively) by generating a random number etc. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

Personally I think that all the moderator who wishes to lock a topic should fill out a form. This must be then signed by all moderators, and then given a stamp of approval by the queen. Only then can the topic, which is by now is just burning, be locked. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

I think it would be quite cool to see a game with a slightly different or more interesting stats or magic system. The current 'get experience points and spend them on stats' and 'buy/find spells and spend MP on using them' is fine, but it would be interesting to see it work a bit differently. I like the way, for example, in the Final Fantasy series, theres always a different system for each game. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

Personally I don't see how it would work. Transporting terrain data might be possible, with a few hiccups, ie. walls and custom graphics. Nodes -> scripts on the other hand I can see being a problem. If there is a translator, I'd expect it to be very buggy, and far from being able to click, wait, and then have a BoA scenario. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

In France, the kids drink real wine. Although, however, I don't think that it isn't smart to not drink alcohol (of your own accord this is), and I very much admire t-totallers (I've never seen that written before, so I don't know how it should be). -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |

I'm surprised that nobody has commented on Dave's strange ideas about researching into making coffee less addictive. How exactly do you plan to do this? And then, even if this can be done, which it can't, then the same could be done with cannabis, cocaine and even heroine. But it can't, so that's moot. And please, TM, don't think that David's religion is so much to do with his opinions on this - it isn't, and I found it slightly offensive. On another note - don't you all think that jokes about sniping and scribbane are getting just even a little bit old? -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |
