Holy ****. I really regret ever wanting to play undead valley. That has to be the worst scenario ever. Mind numbing boring combat, no plot, stupid massive empty outdoors. Its like somebody ported it straight from the gameboy advance. RPG whatever, first person hacker yes. Ahh get that horrible thing out of my brain. :eek: :eek: :eek:

I feel the same way. A few months after I played the first Geneforge game, I woke up in the middle of the night trying to remember which book I read that involved people augmenting themselves and being driven insane as a result. I thought about all the SF/fantasy books I'd read recently, with no results, then thought about which TV shows or movies I'd seen, with no results, then out of the blue it suddenly hit me that it was Geneforge! I felt really silly, but since it was the middle of the night I readily excused my silliness because that's the kind of thing that spins through your mind at 2:30 am. But I soon realized that I still consider Jeff's games more like interactive fantasy literature rather than a game per se, which speaks very highly of his story-telling skills and the overall quality of his games.

Remember that punctuation?

You want an item with a special ability that calls a state in the scenario script. First, you probably want to use is_town to make sure the party is in town mode. If not, use an end call to stop everything and pop up a message -- maybe using print_str or message_dialog. Then pop up a dialog that explains the four text responses: north, south, east, and west. Then ask for a text input, and check for each of those four responses. Then pop up a box that asks "How far?" and takes a numeric input of up to ten. Use current_town_size and char_loc_x and char_loc_y to make sure that the location is a permissible one. If not, end everything again, perhaps with an error message. And finally, use the relocate_character call to move the party.

Heck, I could make this for you if you really needed, but it'd probably be good scripting practice for you to make it yourself.

Taking out the line breaks would fix the sig problem.

You'll probably want to use a shortened form of Numeric Input for this.

Hawk King, please use punctuation and capital letters.

That is a start for skribbane code, but that won't do it by itself. You need to script it with a special ability -- the script for addictive drugs in the Codex is probably the place to start.
