I think this is more related to the editor's code/compatibility/whatever. Should I move it to Editor Dev. Forum?

Also, there are still people whose monitors cannot display a resolution higher than 1024x768. One of them is me.

Iceboty V7000a, if you like, you may take your turn now.
Well. I'd rather not, as I mentioned before I rarely watch films and thus it's hard for me to find something for you guys to guess.
So, I think we can move on now and whoever comes first and has an idea could take the next round.

Well. I just blind searched with the hints and came with the following. I'm not sure whether this is what we're after. You shouldn't read the spoilers if you still want to guess anyway.
Spoiler

Could it be either one of these?
Even this may be correct please don't consider I have really guessed in this round, as I mentioned I just blind searched and have never watched any of these and I didn't even know this book before.
Edit:
Further research showed that the Joker was indeed inspired by a certain film adaption of this book (there's even a comic issue with this very same name), so yeah:

I don't know whether it's the quality of the image or whatever, but it seems to me that his mouth is cut open across the horizontal direction (ewww maybe it's JOKER*), or maybe that's make-ups to mimic a robot?

*The Blade Runner thing is getting old, so from now on I think I will randomly guess each and every entry with:

You can detect whether a savegame is loaded by checking for the event eEventRestoreGame in the on_event() global function.

Just do something like below in the global script:
Code: AGS

function on_event(EventType event, int data){
  if (event == eEventRestoreGame) {
    //randomise codes here
  }
}

BTW Timeline was featured in the movie guessing thread, and no, I didn't enjoy this crap movie either.

When making fan games of commercial properties, be prepared that you may face copyright problems and that you may need to abandon your game anytime (or change it to something else not bases on any established properties) though.

There're numerous cases of this (many are adventure game related). For cartoon/comic properties, there was once an AGS game about a certain fat orange cat and the author received a C&D and had to put the game offline.

But of course there are "big" licenses and "small" licenses, while some copyright owners prohibit unlicensed fan works from being made, some don't even care (or even encourage the actions). That particular fat cat license is of course a big one (and the fact that he has officially licensed adventure games doesn't help), so it may still be safe to work with lesser known licenses (the duck ones someone mentioned here are certainly in the dangerous zone, quite obviously).

Multi-lined comments.
The /* */ thing that Crimson mentioned IS multi-lined comments.  :tongue:
It's always been there and I'm using it since ages. It's just not clearly documented.

Hah yeah seems to be it. I complicated it as I thought

Quarter passed to two.
I was not aware of it because it is very very rare to tell time by saying how many minutes to go until the next hour in my language.

A quarter past two?

#917
Yeah. I'm really annoyed by this too. But think about it. This may be the more correct way* of handling it and all it matters is time for us to get used to it. In the end, probably I can never get used to it and become angry and want it reverted though.

* Maybe the ideal way is that the "Home" link points to the AGS site, whereas the lowest level of the "xxx > xxx > xxx > ..." point is the forum.

And when I try to run with line 11 to 17, it tells me undefined token scale_char. I didnt change anything here. Should I make a global variable for scale_char?
As commented in the original code, the line "scale_char();" has to be placed inside the rep_ex_always function. Did you do that?
#919
Yes, unless you changed it in the game's setup.
