Index: TAKE prints a description
|
|
Description: When the player picks something up which they haven't already examined, the object is described.
|
|
For: Z-Machine
|
|
|
|
Suppose we want to make the player's life slightly easier by examining everything they pick up, if they haven't already examined it.
|
|
|
|
{*}"Morning After"
|
|
|
|
A thing can be examined or unexamined.
|
|
|
|
After taking something unexamined:
|
|
say "Taken. [run paragraph on]";
|
|
try examining the noun.
|
|
|
|
Carry out examining something:
|
|
now the noun is examined.
|
|
|
|
Carry out rules are explained in more detail in the chapter on advanced action handling. For now, it may be enough to know that what we put into this carry out rule for examining will happen any time anything is examined, but that it will not interfere with the rest of the predefined behavior of the action. The player will still see the object description and so on, as usual.
