Well, as we all know, by the middle of page 2, the topic's going to degenerate to a debate about fast food restaurants or Buddhism or something. You never can be sure how it'll turn out...

Like, I could start it up right now:

But wandering monsters as a book plot? I don't know if I could stomach that...

"The four sheathed their swords, which were now drenched with aranea blood. In the distance, they saw a group of eight goblins and seven goblin fighters. They went over and killed them, using Mycroft's newfound skill at casting Ice Lances. Then they found some rats and lizards and killed them. But in the distance, they could see even MORE hostile creatures..."

Yeah, a LOT of cutting would have to be done. But just maybe I'd read the Avernums. I don't think they'd be great, but there'd be only one way to find out if they'd be good.

Funny, if you press spacebar, it ends your turn immediately, but if you click on a person, it asks you (unless you turn this feature off) to verify by clicking again. That's another reason it's a shortcut.

I wish you could still press D (for defend). But the whole Avernum/Geneforge engine thing never agreed with me anyway.

It's just plain impossible. You can only make Battle Alphas and Betas. I kind of hope you can upgrade to Gammas in G4. That could be the creature update for that game—give each creation a third level, such as fyora to cryoa to charged fyora.

EDIT: Curse posting at the same time.

You can put different opinions in different strings and use remove_string to take out certain strings depending on an SDF's value. This is a definite node-saver.

For the record, my old sig from a few minutes ago was:
"The bad news is you and Latin music go together like chocolate ice cream and an onion."—Simon Cowell.

Now I've changed it so it won't be rated multiple times.

Tyran gets a 5 for humorous quotes and links, forming a solid sig.

EDIT: Oh my god. I'm sounding like I'm taking this game seriously. Don't worry, I was itching for a sig change anyway.

Dikiyoba gets a 4.5 for linking to the most priceless, hilarious Spiderweb fanfics of all time. The .5 I left off is for not advertising the scripts by saying something cute, along the lines of "Click or the fluffy turtles will soon be upon you."

Yes, I'm on TextEdit, and I don't really need pointers because I'm not releasing this scen, but this friend of mine loves BoA and wanted me to make a cool cutscene for him.

There is already an end bracket. Thanks for trying though.

EDIT: Strange, it works now that I've put the same script into a new TextEdit file and changed the name of the script. Must've just been a nasty bug.
