I'm new to textadventures, but I am a fan of text-based games, my question is this- Can I get rid of all the help the game gives its players? (such as the blue link that lets someone to easily find out all verbs.) I find all this extra game help annoying, and would like my players to figure out the maps/verbs etc. by themselves not just by clicking on an object and choosing a preferred action. I want this to be more like a zork adventure with just black words and and your brain, Can I do this?

To turn off hyperlinks, go to your game object, select Room Descriptions and uncheck "Enable hyperlinks".

To turn off the side panel, add this to your game start script:

   request (Hide, "Panes")

If there's anything I missed, ask!

I am on online game building, does this change anything? when I click my game object are room descriptions under- setup, player, or display?

****Edit I unchecked simple mode, whew I can do a lot more now.. *****

Thanks for your help

Great! I'll have to remember about simple mode.
