1. Can't for the life of me figure out how to switch Character positions (ie move my Nephil up to top slot since it activates first in combat).

2. No more character editor (aka cheat creating section) like in Av1 - 3... what's up with that?

3. Everything is so Geneforge and so not Avernum gameplaywise, the only things that seem to remain is the turn sequence and the storyline. It doesn't feel like Avernum to me anymore (seeing as I own Av1, 2, 3 and BoA).

For the first, there are two "change party order" buttons in the "Train" screen. Nonsensical perhaps, but the button is a bit of a misnomer now given the other things that go on there.

TY didn't notice it there.

As regards #2, although A4 has no character editor, it does have a Geneforge-style cheat menu.

(Yes, I agree that it's inferior to a character editor. It's still better than nothing.)

Where's the cheat editor located ?

Since haven't seen it...

Or does it appear after you register the game (just waiting on the email with the registeration code, since I only ordered it a few hours ago)...

I seem to remember the command was available prior to registering. You hit Shift-D and enter a command. The commands are listed in the hint book if you ordered it, if not I think theres a thread already with all of them (I don't have them at the moment).

In addition, you can use the editor created by Hawk King. Its pretty cool, and accessed right from the game. The link is at the top of the forum page.

Where did you quote this from? Not this thread, obviously.

TM likes putting words in others' mouths. Sometimes for clarity and sometimes just for effect.

..And some people might find that offensive? Afterall, I don't think Horus has actually said that he thinks Avernum 4 sucks.

Shockingly, some people don't seem to like TM very much. ;)

And getting vaguely back onto something that resembles the topic: It's really irritating that the pathfinding algorithm lets the PCs just cease movement if they run into somebody.

Frustrating, but I can live with it. Having to enter fight-mode to kill a single gobil is worse. I prefered the old way, when you could fight outside fight-mode.
