No room for FPSes on my machine.

My loss then, I suppose.

Not sure if this is possible, but...

short space_blocked(short loc x, short loc y)

Checks to see if the space is blocked. I'm not sure that there is any way to do this right now, minus the possibility of an ungodly-long while and if statement- if(get_terrain() == 67 || get_terrain() == 68 || ...) It would be totally unwieldy and not even remotely worth the trouble for the designer.

short creature_on_space(short loc x, short lox y)

Checks to see if there is a creature on the space. I suppose a while(i < 120) statement could be used and then the monster's coordinates checked accordingly, but it'd be a nice convenience to have.

I want that thread where Pandolfo discussed at great length the nature of Chavez' style of democracy to be saved.
Not sure of any others at the moment.

You aren't SUPPOSED to be able to solve every ill in a scenario, even if the world according to Vogel teaches you otherwise.

I use the Louvre- got the Lyfan graphic from it.

I think there isn't feedback on the Louvre since most people aren't designers- currently, there are 3. When more people start pumping out scenarios, there might be more concern about it then.

Personally, I don't have any problems with it.

The best way I can see this is by giving your town a transparent cliff type, raising the bridge a LOT, and then using mountain walls where the cliff would be- have them be of extraordinary height (say, 10) and then hope the party doesn't see the black strip in the water.

It's still messy, but worth a try.

A workaround might be thus- have the party's level be set up as a variable/SDF, and have spell levels, item quantities, etc. determined by something like this:

flagset = ((level / 10) + 1); // Levels for Bolt of Fire
set_flag(1,1,flagset); // Set the BoF flag to the appropriate value
flagset = ((level / 7) + 1); // Levels for Light
set_flag(2,1,flagset); // Set the Light flag to the appropriate value

And then the add_item_to_shop nodes can either use a variable defined before each one is called, like so:

currentshop = get_flag(1,1);
flagset = ((level / 10) + 1);
setshop = (flagset - currentshop);
add_item_to_shop(0,2000,setshop);

So that the values can be updated every time a party levels. It would take some serious re-writing, but it would work.

(Actually, my beta test went as planned.

Maybe in the future, you shouldn't put out a beta call until your scenario is finished.)

How often can this be updated? CSR ratings can change drastically- only a few weeks ago, Amazonian Saga was an 8.8-something scenario, and even now it's above 8.0, making the review section a bit off-kilter by saying that it's 7.92.

Alec and Drakey both have scenarios designed.
