If I have a series of events under a certain option in the interaction menu for an object, the actions don't happen in the order I put them in. For example, if under "Interact object" the action order is like this...

-Run script
-Character - Move Character, (WAR, 51, 172, true)

It'll move the character first and THEN run the script. Any help appreciated.

Hey, i just want to know the commands for making a character transparent/invisible and making a GUI invisible (I'm talking lucasarts style gui). Thanks.

Nostrum Games (which basically consists of just me) is proud to announce their first game project entitled...


As that crappy promo image proudly stated, the game is called Murderous Tendencies. As you have probably guessed already, it is a lo-res point 'n click adventure game in the style of Monkey Island (complete with the LucasArts adventure interface, only with a few less options).
The game will be on the shorter side of full-length. It could be considered a medium-sized game, but there are a whole lot of different locations so I'm calling it a full-length.

Murderous Tendencies centers around a guy named Warren Killjoy. Warren is a humble, friendly, un-assuming man who suffers from something similar to split-personality disorder. Occasionally he gets severe urges to kill, that come to him in the form of an evil-looking apparation of himself (a.k.a. his "evil side") who takes over and convinces him to murder various people he's angry at with an axe.... orders he is helpless to obey. Such behavior has landed him in prison, which he has since escaped from and moved far away, to start a new life. He started living in a small town, changed his name, got a job working for a big corporation, and got a therapist. Since escaping from prison, he has not gotten any urges  to kill anyone and believes that finally, with the help of therapy, he has cured his "disorder". This is proven wrong when Warren is harshly and randomly fired from his job, and Warren, filled with rage over being fired for no apparent reason, is greeted by the ghost-like apparition that is his "murderous half" for the first time in years. Warren tries his best to fight it, but his murderous half takes control, and Warren is now hell-bent on killing his former employer. Warren breaks into his boss's house, wielding an axe. Things don't go as planned and Warren is shot dead. Not suprisingly, Warren winds up in hell. Now out of his murderous trance, he can't help but feel he doesn't BELONG in hell... after all, it's not his fault he's a murderer, is it? He's a nice guy, he just can't control his evil split-personality... right? Warren decides he has to escape from Hell, which is not to prove an easy task... none have ever done it before. Can he do it? Maybe, if you guide him.

The game features a bizarre plot, witty dialogue, badly drawn cartoony graphics, violence and dark humor, as well as hours of MIND-BENDING PUZZLES. And demons. And other cool stuff like that. It also features a rabid dog.

Here's some screenshots:

That's the title screen for the demo.

Expect a demo in coming weeks. Badda bing. Feel free to comment.

Can anyone tell me how to take a screenshot of my game? thanks

I've got an NPC that I need to vanish from thin air, but it seems the only way I can have a character exit the room is to walk out, which won't work for the game... is there a command that would make a character vanish immediately? Thanks

I've got a hotspot I want to disable and I have the game run this script:

DisableHotspot (6);

and for some reason the hotspot is still active. Got any help?

I'm toying around with an idea for a game I might make after I've finished with the one I'm working on now, and the other day I drew the possible main character and a background for 320x200 resolution. Would you folks want to play a game with these graphics? C&C please

Oh, and this is my first time posting pictures on the forum so I fully expect it not to work. We can only hope it does
