Well, most of this thread is irrelevant if you want to just have one character follow another around. The stuff discussed here is if you want to do something complicated like use a character for a shadow which must animate exactly the same as the main character. Your thing needn't worry about all this, just run FollowCharacter and forget about it!

Transputer processors used a SIGNED address space so their null pointer was -0x80000000. And there's no reason why null needs to be 0 other than people using bad coding practice. Strongly typed languages will enforce this. Also, using null conveys the meaning of the code mode than 0. Also, it is best to use named constants rather than integer literals where possible.

That's not a clarification, becuase he wasn't checking that... its also bad practice

But if you can't let a character do some particular action, surely its much better to show them trying and failing in some way than just cop out by having the character do nothing except "No, I won't and you can't make me!"

You need to do:

Code: ags

if (bellOverlay!=null && bellOverlay.Valid==1) bellOverlay.Remove ();

As the Valid method can only be run on a non-null pointer.

Yes, that is the correct solution.

Use divs instead of evil iframes

No

Good, we didn't want you in heaven anyway, Nacho 

Of course, Nacho and Helm, if God is omniscient, he probably has a much better idea of justice than you or I do. If Hell is simply Annihilation, then athiests are getting no less than they expected. And so far there's been no complaints from anyone who has been annihilated And its not as if God hasn't left a bunch of people round trying to convert everyone.

But, as I said, I believe God is merciful, so my opinion of the "official" criteria, even if correct, may be overridden. And I don't pretend to know the nature of heaven or hell.

If "Heaven" is being with God for eternity and "Hell" is not being with God for eternity, and God forces someone into being with him who doesn't want to be (say, for example, a Satanist) then is that just by God's standards, or anyone else's?

Thanks for the reminder. Yes, I NOW[/i] have

Becky, indeed: Wesley and Whitfield, founders of Methodism disagreed about this point their whole lives. On the web you can find lists of alleged contradictions int he bible, and kudos to that skeptics' site, they link to rebuttals, too.

Having looked around, I guess that my beliefs might be classified as: Arminianism. Do I now get permission to have some fellowship with like-minded Christians, Helm? The thing is, my belief includes the necessity to tell others about it. I've noticed that many in modern society seem to think "Belive what you like, as long as the belief doesn't involve trying to convert me".

And Helm, I wasn't trying to say that you spelt Epidiemiology wrong, just that its a hard word to spell right.

Yeah, but make sure you spell epistemologically correctly, Tuomas

If you want to pretend to yourself that you got what you want and bow out becuase you know you can't get any better, then feel free 

Epistemologically, lack of proof constitutes disprooval until there's reason to believe otherwise.

My personal relationship and experience of Jesus is my reason to belive otherwise.

Make sure the buttons and/or GUI that are over the inv window have their Clickable property turned off.

Actually, the existence of a God is impossible to prove or disprove, its a matter of faith. So I dunno what jet is on about.

Yeah, and the title of the demo is "Vogon Poetry", by the way. (Somebody's got to spot the reference and do a joke about it...)

I think your lyrics counterpoint the surrealism of the underlying metaphor.

From what I've heard, it's a pretty dull demo/game.
