It's not necessarily directed at you, but at all other designers who haven't fixed bugs. Saying that the program is fundamentally flawed (even though it might be) instead of trying to and fixing bugs is a cop out. Since you've fixed the bugs, it just proves my point, doesn't it? -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

No problem. This was one of my favorite things in my scenario, and I'm glad that someone can use it in a scenario that will (hopefully) be released. EDIT: For efficiency, it would be advisable to put the checks for 210,1 as the first condition in the each if statement rather than the last. EDIT 2: And for more efficiency, just take out the 210,1 altogether and just replace it with 3,0 [ Monday, September 05, 2005 09:34: Message edited by: Drakefyre ] -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

You need to set flag 210,1 to 0 when it turns to daytime (put it right next to set_flag(3,0,0);) and enclose them both in curly braces. EDIT: Disabled graemlins.

It's because your end night section is screwed up. Use curly braces or eliminate the line "eliminate_outdoor_enc(210,0);" If that doesn't work, edit the if conditional to be all of daytime, not just those 12 ticks. Since you have a town, if you enter the town at night and come back out in daytime, the town will still be visible. Also, you don't need state 10 - that was only because I had three outdoor encounters that this controlled. You also don't need the line "set_flag(210,0,0);" [ Monday, September 05, 2005 02:14: Message edited by: Drakefyre ] -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Also, skipping the first cutscene breaks the scenario, since Kass will not talk to you afterwards. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

It definitely protects against Sleep and probably Paralysis, which is good to have in a 2PC party (although moreso for a singleton). I would personally go for Recuperation, as the XP penalty never means much for me anyway. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

It's really fun, and also much easier than EV and EVO. That said, the storylines are written much, much better.
