Small Village, General Store
    This is a small store filled with all kinds of useful tools.  A large woman
sits quietly snacking on bread and fruits behind the shop's counter.  She
pauses for a momment as you enter to nod, then returns to her meal.  A sign by
the counter says that they'll offer free torches for repeat customers.  You may
exit through the eastern door that that you entered from, or north into the
griffon field.
Also here: Vitoc, Shannon.
Obvious exits: north, east
[HP=548]:ask sh ready
You open your coin purse.
You hand over the funds.
Shannon shoves your money into her apron along with a half eaten turkey leg
and guides you into the northern pasture.  She makes a waving gesture toward
the Griffon who happily obeys the commands.  Shortly after you mount the beast
she takes off into the sky.

TextBlock Not Yet Implemented (please report): [delay]
random 135
Large Stable
Also here: Silverwing, Silverwing, Silverwing, Silverwing, Silverwing,
Silverwing.
Obvious exits: east, northwest
Silverwing swoops in from east!

Just a couple issues left :P

Ya at least it gets you there though...

Yeah, Soul's been working on textblocks again.  Can you name the issues so we can fix them?  I mean obviously the delay and random thing, but other than that, does it look right?


TGS v1.0 (coming soon)

Well, delay, and then the rest of the like 10 textblocks that follow it. 

Then it shouldn't be summoning a limit-1 monster that is already active.  I'd have to actually make a new character to test it completely...but it looks ok, and Id imagine its very possible I've made mistakes in the flight to duran textblocks..although they arent very complicated atm, I was just testing to see if it was worth building..eh we'll see.

ok i tryed griffin  works good but how would some one get back to small village from stables?

I took the shortcut:

Large Stable
Also here: DeathCow, Silverwing.
Obvious exits: east, northwest
[HP=19/MA=16]:a Silverwing
A dark cloud passes over you
*Combat Engaged*
[HP=19/MA=16]:nw
Large Stable
Also here: stable boy.
Obvious exits: south, southeast
*Combat Off*
[HP=19/MA=16]:rest
You are now resting.
You drop to the ground!
You have been killed!

Your command had no effect.
[HP=-67/MA=16]: (Resting)
Large Stable
Also here: stable boy.
[stable boy added to known monsters]
Obvious exits: south, southeast
Small Village, Temple
    This simple shrine is ornately decorated with hand carved stone and wooden
sculpture.  Simple wooden beds line the walls to provide some comfort to the
sick and injured.  Oddly very few of the beds are in use.  A fresh pitcher of
water sits on each nightstand and at the end of the room a chest of medicinal
herbs await the healer's use.
Also here: Vitoc, Jackote, healer.
Obvious exits: south

Can someone tell me what happened here??
Oh, maybe those guards attacking me left some kind of (massive) damage tick on me?  I lost 86 hps in one round.

<ramble> Stupid guards, stupid mega attacking everything in sight...   </trail off>
If we can hit that bulls-eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards.? Check-mate!

Well, I suppose I could put a temporary teleport back to the village, but i'll have to take it out later.


On a side note

Silverwing swoops down and grips Ian in its claws crushing them for %d damage!
Silverwing falls to the ground with a thud, taking drops damage!

Hmm, I thought I'd seen this mentioned before but now I can't find it.  Shannon is charging too much for a trip to Duran.  Her textblock claims 1 silver, she takes 1 gold.

Edit: ooh, I just saw this post is under the engine bugs sub-forum.  I reckon this is more likely DCs problem.

If I remember correctly its coded to take 1 silver so its probably a bug I'll double check it later though.

It was a problem on my end to start with, I've since fixed it, but I admit I do not know when Vitoc last updated content.  I'd guess its still a content issue.

I don't know the exact date but I know it's been quite a while.  I'm ready when you are.

I can add a metadata field to the db and keep track of what "content build" is currently running.  Maybe even display it next to our latest engine build date at our main menu or have some in-game command to display it.

That would be nice...

I had a database compiled not too long ago.....
