Ok first off I really enjoyed working with this today, thank you LJ.

I did find a couple of issuse though one being the ^ before speach,
"^Type \"Start\" to begin the puzzle " USERNAME & "." & SAYthis will activate the away if you have that plugin installed.

Also when Spirit and I was playing with it when I solved it it didn't show right to her when it auto fixed.

I have however reworked it to be half the size and do not move here on the doors so people can sit in the room in their own avs while playing.

Hi Finna, I'm glad you enjoyed working on that one.

Sorry about the bugs in it though.

My scripting can be rather ad-hoc at times, occasionally inept [or confused], but usually it ends up doing what I wanted.

I never realised that the [^] speech sticky was used by plug-ins. I test on a plug-in less WIN-doze PServer. I also agree the "don't move here" option is a great idea, but way back in '98 when I first did it, peer pressure had every1 prefer to bounce around the screen like nit-wits than be frozen at the point they bounced in the room. [every1 didn't know about cursor keys]

I'm glad you were able to squeeze the size down more. My head was getting sore trying to shrink it. I tried to change several things [and test] before posting - I shrunk it some by adding "moveblank DEF", used "ME" spotstate where I could, added the randomising start [which made it fatter] , and added the variables for checking the adjacent sqaures/doors. [also made it fatter] The variable idea being if someone wanted to add more squares to the script [say 16 pces] it'd be easier for them to do so.

With the problem with Autofix.... Well, I can't see a problem with that section of script in Door14. The string of Setspotstate's (not being Local) SHOULD affect all users. However, over the years thats always been buggy. Sometimes it works, most times it don't. I have never worked out why ?

But a different angle at it might be to try -- A word that is spoken by the winner, obviouslly 'not normal' easily typed text -- then an INCHAT handler to look out for it, obviouslly delete it so no-one can cut n paste the cheat, and then run the string of setspotstates [which could then be LOCAL], etc.
As everyone would hear the 'winner', everyone in the room should have their INCHAT section trigger.

I hope that helps. -LJ©

ok for the full sized puzze I agree the having them bounce around the room is the best option, but then I said I made it smaller I wasn't meaning the script but the size of the puzzle area. I cut it down to half the size it was which allows for people to have an area to sit around the puzzle making the do not move here a good choice. And yea its only the away plug in that uses the ^ as its an update for the ^brb so many already use
