No one saw anything. 

I saw it 

How can Dick the 'Tec  avoid certain death from the deadly, Golden scorpion's sting?


Part 1 of 2 is complete and i am well into part 2.....

Uses a variation of my Slasher Template....

I would have thought 'Pick of the Month' should be about picking a game made that month, not from previous months, years ago...

Oops, sorry, that was just me. i was up on the roof sneaking a cig because I promised my wife I would quit. Excuse me for causing all the bother with people thinking there was a mysterious villain around and all...

Dick Casey: "I should arrest you Mandle for leaving fag butts on the roof and being sneaky behind your wife's back, you villain

Hi

The Spider's Web

My game entry is split into 2 parts... Part 1 is almost complete.

Who was the shadowy figure on the theater rooftop you saw climbing down the ladder?

The Tumbleweed template uses different scripts then a normal template like Serra Style.

Check out the Global and Room Scripts for commands used....

Adding an elif to the bed wouldn't do much, since the inv pillow is the only inventory item in this "game". (Really more of a test adventure for me to learn AGS.)
Trust me, before making this thread, I more than triple checked spelling of it everywhere, and did again before posting this.

Are there any alternate ways to lose an inventory item that I could try out?

Not that I know of....Not sure why you are not losing after using it..

This action is a very major part of ags...

Maybe it's the Tumbleweed template coding..

Read above post...

If you can make it active you should be able to Add and Lose it... Check the inv pillow spelling etc etc

If cRoger is the main player then it should work as it did when you picked pillow up...

Check out all oBed events....

You could and an 'else if' if player uses another inv item on the bed:

Code: ags

if(cDummy.Activeinventory==iPillow){
oPillow,Visible=true;
cDummy.LoseInventory(iPillow);
}
else if(player.Activeinventory!=null) {      //any other active inventory item
cDummy.Say("That won't do any good.");
 }
}

[Just realised you're using the TumbleWeed template]

Hi and welcome to the ags forums.

Well, the pillow would be an object that when to interact with it you pick it up (make pillow invisible) and pillow goes in your inventory.
Now, if you use pillow inventory on the bed the pillow will appear again  (make pillow visible).

One way depending how you have the bed and pillow set up

Code: ags

//In the properties panel for the Pillow use interact event and code as 
oPillow,Visible=false; // Pillow now invisible. 
cDummy.AddInventory(iPillow); // Pillow now added to inventory.

// Now got to bed object and in it's properties panel for the Bed select Use Inv event and code as 
if(cDummy.Activeinventory==iPillow){
oPillow,Visible=true;
cDummy.LoseInventory(iPillow);
}

Hope this helps.....

Solved as in my post above...

cheers....

Does not show any name? Then the issue is that it doesn't show the name.
That line, if it is called during the game, will definitely change the description as shown by @OVERHOTSPOT@ or GetLocationName().

I set it in Room Load.... hover over it does not show name as shown on label... over chars ok..

Edit: Changed to a different character and it works.... strange is life 

cheers

Hi

used: cWyatt.Name="Golden Scorpion";

but does not show any name...

OverHotspot label .... Real name..

Could someone remind me please how to change a characters' descriptive name in game?

Thanks

This is the final splash screen..

You could try Let's cook....lots of recopies to cook and safety tips and you can print out certificates of your achievements 

Voted best non-adventure game of 2015...

I don’t think it necessarily entails espionage or secret societies. I think it can be used quite broadly. We use it in business, politics, maybe even a family context. Any situation involving a web of lies and backstabbing (metaphorical or otherwise).

The term 'cloak and dagger', as Stupot says can be broadly used and spying and espionage is just one way to conceive it but is may also reflect murder, mystery and suspense like Columbo or Miss Marple etc etc

If you check out the Topic's sub-heading it is referring to a Detective/P.I...  but you could be a spy solving a case detective style.....
