I know about GetAttribute() but is there a way of
setting
a variable through a string?
As far as I can tell, GetAttribute() is a read-only.
ex:
game['<string attribute>']
I'm trying to loop through a set of attributes using a stringlist, as this would make my evening a "walk in the park".
Thank you very much ^-^

Ummm... I'm really no good at this part, but there might be some info in here that might prove useful? Or not??

Thanks Xan for the references
Thanks, Pertex! I was looking through the function tab in the documentation...

@ Earmuffs:
here's some of the useful documentation pages/links:
http://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/functions/
(functions, categorical order)
http://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/ ... tions.html
(functions, alphabetical order)
http://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/scripts/
(generally these are really just more functions)
http://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/scopes.html
(these are found in/under the 'functions' category/link too, but it's nice to have them by themselves for reference)
http://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/ ... bject.html
(all of the Attributes for Objects, such as the useful 'parent' Attribute)
http://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/ ... ments.html
(some briefly mentioned very useful things in here, such as 'displayverbs' and 'inventoryverbs')
