YAY!!!!

Thanks for the continued development of Quest. Changing objects and rooms during a game looks great, though I do wish there were examples in the docs.

I can now change what the player sees when typing "look" by writing a "look" property for an object or room. So if the player hits someone in a fight, then the hit could also include a change in the "look" of the person being hit?

Maybe someone could give some examples of the new features and place them in a story context.

Now that we have 3.5, we can hope Al is not too far behind with a conversation update to his MaDbRiT's Type Library.

You can for example create a command :

command <hit #@object#> {
		if ( #object# = YourTarget ) then {
msg <bla bla bla.>
property <YourTarget ; look=blablabla, he's wounded. ; examine=blablabla, etc.> 

}
	}

Use this property script command like all other commands, in a procedure, a function, a scritp...

Does it answer your question ?

Those new features (I'm just discovering how it works) are very powerful and great to give more interesting descriptions in a game. Well done

Thanks Farvardin. I'm very busy at the moment finishing up a book that is due to the publisher by the end of the month. Othewise, I'd be digging into this new version right now. If you make any other discoveries, let us know.
