You mean both are shown on the same view?

I think what he's saying, in technical terms, is that if the staircase on the first floor of a tower is at, say, X 600, Y 450 on the world map, then the staircase on the second floor leading back down to the first will be at X 600, Y 450 on the second floor of the world map (or to put it another way, X 600, Y 450, Z 1). In other words, the second floor of every building that has a second floor is part of the same map, since they're all at the same altitude.

I don't really see what gameplay advantages this could have, apart from the fact that if you had a way to fly ridiculously huge distances, you could get directly from the second floor of any building in the game to the second floor of any other building in the game without climbing downstairs.

This is exactly what happens. With an above and below in some cases.

To help with that, rush your fighters up so that they're next to the giants so that they'll hit them with their clubs as opposed to throwing rocks.

You can run away from someone with a knife without fear of dropping dead, unless they're some sort of expert knife-thrower.

Read the manual (it really helps) and then just dive in and experiment. Also look at the scripts from the included scenarios.

I agree - the BoE scenario editor is much simpler and easier to use. That said, the BoA editor is much more powerful.

About half of these are in Avernum 4, and some others monsters can do but you can't.

I use potions, but I don't make them. There are enough you can buy/find without having to make your own.

In terms of design, Avernum 4 doesn't have zones. It is all one gigantic, seamless gameworld. This has given us a lot of freedom. The world feels a lot more natural. You can find fishing huts and farms scattered about, and people to talk to hidden in remote caves. And it's possible to have huge, epic dungeons that stretch for a loooong way.

oh you made the quote from the a4 interview!
oh wait, so you mean that "in" amd "out"doors are melt now?if that is right, then wow :eek:
if you mean that is like the no outdoor geneforge way, then it completely sucks.

im reading the a4 interview and i read wonders...
so the trouble now is that the vahnatai are attacking from below and avernum is suffering again?
so i was wandering for example:now there is resistances,right, but jeff added waknesses or they are just the lack of resistances?
a thing that i really sorry is the loss of avernum graphics, the geneforge have the different style that i dont like as much as the avernum one.
so the movement system is like geneforge, wath a sh__
i read that there just are 20 of each spell class, another sh__ that was one of the most wanted things, so i think the area spells are not coming back...
i really hope that there is a lot of different items, just like in avwernum, not like in geneforge where the items could be counted with your fingers.
so the main thing that i complain about, is that maybe the game be just completely geneforgized, with some advantages but tons of disadvantages that the geneforge mix mean to avernum, it just an unseen fear yet, though.

Avernum 4 is going to make you very happy.

There's also the Church of Prevailing Righteousness, which is common in Avernum.
