Hey, thats a really good point. I think adding in another cursor might be a bit annoying but I think you're right, 'Grab' is better than 'Take'.

Plus that opens up all sorts of jokes for 'grabbing' characters later on...!

„

"grab" - still doesn't make sense to me! (in terms of grab being used as interaction)

annoying? why?

me, personally: I would scrap the commands & right click cycle thing & just use a single command "left_click" for walk & interact & right click for examine (modern day command interface) - but that's just me, as I'm not particular to text selection or cycle command interfaces.

just got the new demo...
not checked it yet but...

there's a quick way to determine if a player has already launched game before which is to use the quicksave system...

quicksaves can be used for new game, resume game, achievements/bonus content unlock & for checking various other things...

just use an if query: if quicksave #number whatever (or any) exists then, do something, end if.

alternatively you can read/write from/to the config.ini or some other external file but it's a lot more complicated. there are a couple scripts in the community wiki, I wrote, which would give you an idea of where to start but they aren't as neat as Daedalic's method as it's one of first scripts I wrote based on another members script in which we delete the current config.ini & create a temp file with the new content & then rename the temp file rather than overwriting the changed/edited lines inside of the same file,

Thats awesome- thanks for the tip! I'll definitely get that into the next demo. Loving the quicksave system and Visionaire in general.

Currently doing a little more bug fixing before I get back to adding in the missing animations for the items and interactions in general.

Glad you got the email, will mail out again soon!

Thanks again,

Kris

Quick concept doodle that I added on saturday to see if I can keep people playing a bit longer and generally another excuse for a bit more humour in the game!

Hi All, sorry to bump this post but I FINALLY got round to trying out the quicksave function and I cant seem to find it.

I want it so that if anyone has played the game before then they will skip the how to part and go straight into the game.

Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!

Kris

Looks very professional

Thanks BigStans - much apprecated! Nearly finished off the proper demo now so will repost with a more exciting and professional looking game soon...

I don't have vs over here with me but er the quicksave (save/load) option should be under the save action parts & the save query is in the conditions, value if query section of the action parts.

Hey, thank you!

I'll have a play, but this all sounds awesome - will make the game all the better and less frustrating for people I'm sure.

Thanks again, both, - please PM me your real names (or names you are happy to be known as ) so I can add them into the game credits?

you'll get our real names if you add us to your friends list - or at least you should do!

Well, I will if you accept, anyhoo
