Making huge games with such an editor? in Blades of Avernum Editor

Babysitting was done using XCode from Apple's development tools. It's clever enough to match the parentheses for me, and know what's in quotes, and so on. And it keeps the same number of beginning of line tabs as there were on the previous line.

You won't actually find Babysitting from that link. You'd be better off looking in http://www.avernum.com/blades/scen_stuff/medium.html

Strategies for big battle:

Bless and haste before you go in, enter in combat mode.
Polymorph the spellcasters (except Kjellka, he's immune). Translocate a fighter up onto the platform, or if you have a lot of fighters, translocate a mage with Kjellka to get him down. Focus on killing him. If the character with the wand of life drain gets hurt a lot, use it. The spells Ice Lances and Enduring Barrier help a lot, if you have them.

To find your sister, use the seeing pool to find out which cell she's in. You can move the view by clicking on the directions at the edge of the screen.

ADOM is a piece of crap and I hope the guy who made it burns in an eternity of hells.

Nethack, on the other hand, does have sufficient roleplaying elements to pass for an RPG. Specifically, the whole piety issue and the alignments (Lawful/Neutral/Chaotic).

Umm, what are you talking about? ADOM has alignments and piety more than Nethack. And in ADOM, unlike Nethack, your actions have an actual effect on your alignment in a normal game. In Nethack a lawful character can lie, murder and steal, and any effect of this is negligible.

And ADOM's piety does a lot more than Nethack's prayer timeout and god anger.

Nethack and ADOM are both great games, but ADOM is much more RPG-like (although still not very)

I'd guess that it is actually 32,767 instructions of some sort. It's just not quite clear what counts as an instruction.

But whatever it is, it's plenty.

The actual editor program has to go into the data folder, not the whole editor folder.

I actually submitted a cross-platform version to Spiderweb right at the beginning, but they asked me to send a .sit file instead. :P

British. And I don't see the point in tracing back my family tree to discover that I'm 1/10000th Zulu and 1/e Icelandic, or whatever.

Edit: Forums don't do pies.

Just a random guess - perhaps arrows are more likely to be recovered if you miss, and your high-level archer doesn't miss much.
