I don't think so. Splitting off one character so that three are active and one is inactive has not appeared anywhere that I can remember in the Avernum Trilogy. Splitting off one character so that one is active and three are inactive has been used, but that's available in BoA, too.

There are four in Avernum 1. More description is available here. There are also four in A2. More description of them is available here, under "Hints." And there's four in A3, too. You can find out about them via the GameFAQs page linked in the board header.

Clearly Marlenny wins at polling, if only because of Jeff's participation. (1) What's your main goal in life? I'm still figuring out what mine is, but my mom's goal for me is that I have a house with a driveway. (2) If you won a million dollars, what would be your first thought? Sweet! That might almost cover a down payment on a house! (3) When you are mad; do you usually stay angry or do you yell to release the anger? Yelling doesn't do me much good, so I try to calm down, usually by myself. (4) Tell us an anecdote of anything that happened to you today. Um, nothing really happened today. I worked. But yesterday, I went to my professor's house for a Parilia party! We ate delicious food and talked Romanity. (5) What's your current Philosophy on life? Step One: Survive 'til summer.

quote:"Gun crime is rare in Britain, and handguns are completely illegal. The ban is so strictly enforced that Britain's Olympic pistol shooting team is barred from practicing in its own country. Britain's 46 homicides involving firearms was the lowest total since the late 1980s. New York City, with 8 million people compared to 53 million in England and Wales, recorded at least 579 homicides last year." From the San Francisco Chronicle. I'm not saying you're wrong, because there are many complicating factors, here, but it's at least worthy of some thought. quote:If you take "the government or parents" and replace it with "parents," I agree with you. I think it's dangerous to try to make the government responsible for parenting our children, though.

quote:I don't know why you said this. If you click on "gun violence" and find the United States, you find 3.6 firearm homicides per 100,000 people, which, multiplied by the U.S.'s population of approximately 300,000,000, produces 10,800. That's ten thousand per year, and while it was a few years back, I don't think that gun violence has dropped by orders of magnitude in the past couple of years, although if I'm not mistaken it has declined somewhat. Indeed, according to this article, guns were involved in "68% of the 14,860 homicides in the United States during 2005," which comes out to 8,916 in a year. As for the rest of it, I don't know if we have any common ground upon which even to begin a conversation, so I think I'm going to leave this one alone. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

quote:And the answer that you received is that it says nothing about American values and much more about the nature of emergency situations. At least one person, maybe more, sacrificed his own life at the Virginia Tech shooting to save many others, as I indicated with the article that I linked, so I would be hesitant to condemn the valor of the thirty-two victims at this shooting. quote:Don't be a jerk. Having guns may bring benefits. But judged in relation to saving people's lives, those benefits are minimal. That's what I actually said, not whatever you thought you read.

That's a restriction on your liberty, yet you aren't out in the streets protesting it. We already recognize that there is some amount of reasonable restriction on our liberty, and the only real question is how much for what benefit. The benefits of people having guns seem minimal.

I do have to think that the lives of the thousands of people who die each year to gun violence outweigh the hunting-for-pleasure needs (or target-practice-for-pleasure or whatever) of millions. If I could save ten people's lives by forcing a thousand to find a new hobby, I'd do it. There's a terribly thorny problem of enforcement, however. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Laz is absolutely right. Blaming the victim is sickening, especially in cases like this, where the victims are clearly innocent, at least as much as anyone can be. Moreover, some people did try to help. Sarasaphilia is also right, in another sort of way, and it's a point that Salmon made earlier. We talk sometimes about how easy it is to be cruel over the Internet because people are faceless here, but we forget how easy many of us find it to be cruel face-to-face, too. It's worth remembering that no act of kindness is ever wasted, and a small good deed may turn out to have been a much bigger one than we'll ever know. That's what we, as individuals, can do, but it's hard to know what we, as a society, should do.

It may well be that our culture glorifies violence, but many other cultures have glorified violence in the past and many do also in the present.

quote:I don't mean to pick a fight here, so please do not interpret my response as belligerent, but I think this point is worth making. But I don't have to admit any such thing. That's a statistical statement that is either true or false (not a matter of opinion), and I don't think either you or I have done the relevant research to know the frequency of school shootings over the past several decades and whether there has been any increase or not. In other words, I don't think you know this. quote:How is that ironic?

It's worth noting, I suppose, that our culture is not unique in that respect.

Go easy on the capitals, please. Good to hear that you've had success in the Avernum series. If I remember correctly, Jeff has indicated that A5's engine will be a much more polished version of what we saw in A4. The look-and-feel will be a bit different from A1-3, but he makes it sound as though it will be good. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

This would probably be hard, but I'd love to have this script editor sync-ed up to the BoA documentation somehow. That is, have a list of calls in a separate window (closable, of course) on the side, and clicking on a call pulls up the appendix entry for that call, or something more or less to that effect. Maybe a Help feature that goes to the appendices. Oh! And an astring-like feature, either that runs a spell-check on the text (ignoring the code) or that exports all the text to a text file (ignoring the code) and re-imports it so that the user can run a spell-check with another, separate application. This also might be hard. If either of those two things are possible, they'd be neat, but even if not, the application sounds pretty neat anyway. Originally, I was using at least eight different applications for BoA scenario designing (Photoshop, Preview, and ResEdit for graphics, Word, BBEdit Lite, and Alint for scripts, and the BoA Editor and the BoA app for drawing towns and outdoors). This application might bring the total down to four (Graphic Adjuster, this, and the BoA Editor and BoA app). That would be a very good thing.
