It's not super realistic. It's my usual crazy ass horror stuff Made a gif to show you , cos gifs are COOL!

Bummer... After the initial posters had presented their positive opinions I went and made the scene already (with cool animations and all that )

Now, I'm not so sure... But please bear in mind, this is a video game logic. We usually assume some things are fine in games, even if we know that in real life they wouldn't quite work. Hmm...

What if the fuse was soaked in something flammable? Perhaps they are by default? I don't know, I never had one  

Thanks, guys! You've been most helpful, as always

Hey guys

Been a while since I posted here - moved to Unity (+ Adventure Creator) over a year ago... But still popping in to see what's new in AGS every now and then

I wanted to ask your opinions regarding a puzzle for the new game I'm making - Lorelai. Would it make sense, (or rather is it possible) to ignite a fuse/wick on a home-made bomb not with lighter or matches, but by striking a rock on another rock/metal object to create sparks? What do you think? Is this totally unrealistic? Could that be done in real life?

I'd appreciate some feedback

Crazy game, man!

That definitely explains that to me, thanks!

Next time I want something but can't afford it, I'll just take it. Because enrichment

I live in a 3rd world country in Africa and find it very difficult to set up things like PayPal

Alrighty! Well that entitles you to get everything for free, yay!

but I can't find a torrent for it anywhere and I have no means of buying things online

Ehem... Please support developers by buying their games!

Having said that, I agree with you that adventure games being mostly aimed at adults should reflect that more than they do. But since you're a big boy now in your 20's you should probably get a job and a bank account and consider buying games online - we all do that!

The Mole Lady - sounds potentially like a good new enemy for The Cat Lady!

Oh, Velvet Assassin sounds nice, always fancied playing that!

I lived as an immigrant in UK for 12 years. When border control asked me for a passport I did not think it was just like nazi Germany. When I had to fill out paperwork in order to get a job permit, I did not accuse the lady at the job centre of being Hitler. When I found myself at one point without home and only a tenner in my pocket, I did not accuse anyone of discrimination and did not demand that they give me anything - I had to do it all myself. I understand there are rules and procedures, and everyone has to follow them. Why would we make exceptions to some people but not other?...

Talking about controlling ILLEGAL immigration isn't anything new or horrible. It's how things always worked.

Well put, Darth. We all got so much invested in this Trump/Hilary situation, the hate is pouring like poison from both sides exactly the same.

I figured your post would make us all blush from shame, but there are already "buts" and "ifs". Come on, people. It'll be ok. Nothing will change. Every politician ever has been a corrupt piece of shit, we just didn't get a chance to fight about it on social media so it wasn't as interesting as it is now, and the dirt didn't spread around the globe faster than light, so we lived in sweet ignorance.

I think both sides should just let it go. No point in proving that Hilary's friends with Satan now. No point being so sensitive about one's issues in case they get "triggered" - if someone offends you just tell them to fuck off and get on with your life, like we always have. No point getting so wound up about this stuff, though I admit, it's easy to get addicted to politics - in the past I never used to even watch news and you know what? - life was pretty great. These days things happening in my country do upset me... and I wish I didn't follow any of them.

The only way we can make our "enemies" win, is by doing what they want us to do: turn on each other. We are still the same people. Let's not give anyone satisfaction and save the world by simply getting along, can we?

Well here's a link that should explain some things.  He's got an English accent so what he says must be true .  Have fun and hysteria watching.

I've followed that channel for a while now. I agree 100% with what he says about Trump, and on most other topics (islam...). I'm not American, obviously, so it's not my say, but clearly Trump has won because people of America have voted for him. That's how democracy works. End of story.

I can imagine veteran game devs who build their own engines from scratch saying pretty much the same kind of things about AGSers.

It's all relative I suppose.

Good point, although I personally see AGS as being a nice middle ground.

That being said, having just re-read my own words again. Damn I'm pessimistic. Sorry about that everyone.

Don't be sorry. I think you pretty much nailed it

Is it a Polish game?...

Sorry for the bump.

I'm using xbox 360 wireless controller and in the tutorial demo it doesn't seem to do anything. It says in the beginning the controller has been detected and it has 10 buttons. I skip those messages (with keyboard) and change rooms with keys 1-9 but in none of them my controller is able to work. It works normally, when I play games with it, so I'm guessing there's some kind of problem with it being compatible with AGS and the Joystick plugin... Any ideas? ( I assume it is possible normally to use it in the tutorial?).

EDIT: Tried different controller. It works. It seems only wired controllers are compatible for this.

Dude, you're awesome! That's totally what it was!!!

Now... I just have to figure out how to set up the scripts so it would work But the stupid error is gone! Finally!!!

Hmm I checked and this seems to be a problem of recent AGS versions. There is another struct that has the same function but those should not clash.  Hmm I guess I'm going to write a bug report on this. Which AGS version are you using?

Version 3.3.0.

"__Plugin###.ash" are auto-generated script headers that AGS creates for plugins. Try rebuilding all files?

I tried rebuilding several times. With the joystick plugin switched off, it rebuilds fine. With joystick on, it fails to rebuild, because of the error...

You could always go into the actual game folder and delete the file __Plugin100.ash manually.

It's not there.
