Hi Dark,
Well, I am not actually creating a custom text adventure language. The
games will still be written in C++ and compiled using a C++ compiler.
What I am doing here is basically creating a framework so I can
quickly put a text game together without having to rewrite some of
this stuff from
Hi guys, I have started playing Terraformers, but, I have an annoying problem.
I press escape sometimes if I'm confused, and that takes me out of the game,
any advice, and I find the training annoying, each time. Anyone else?

Hi Tom.
Fair enough, though i do remember you discussing writing an rpg previously
which is why I mentioned it.
I personally have no overbaring preference between text or sapi as output
method, though regarding the parza I myself would be in favour of a limited

Hi All
A friend bought me q9 as a late birthday present yesterday. I was wondering,
are blastbay good about sending out keys, or has my friend just wasted $29.95
on my behalf for nothing?

Actually blastbay have their own online key generator so there is no problem
with getting keys at all. If I remember rightly it's actually on the Q9 page
of the blastbay site, you just enter your name and payment details and get a
key generated for the game.
Philip is also good at responding
Hi Kelly, what computer are you using? If it's a laptop, then you have to
get the hand movement right for turning by sliding your finger around the
keypad in the direction you hear the zombies coming. If it's a stand alone
pc mouse, then it should work just as well, only with the difference
Hi Thomas,
I tend to find that getchar suits my needs perfectly. Making a call to
getchar and ignoring the return value does exactly what you describe, and in
a portable way. getch is non-standard as you know so may or may not be
present on any given target.
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall
Hi Bryan,
If I was you I'd hold off tips for SOD 1.2. David did write that a new
update to Shades of Doom would be the next release. It may be version 2.0 as
that would use the new automatic key generating system.
Please don't pester him with questions as he is still working out why some
wo Phil, shades 2.0 would be awsome.
I really look forward to that one, especially seeing what additions David
will make to the game. User level creation? more enemies? Mouse control?
I'll very much look forward to seeing what happens with that upgrade.
All the best,
Dark.

I'm OK with a prompt to continue, save game, quit, and so on. If I can
review the current screen using, for example, the jaws cursor, that will
work.
I've looked at other posts regarding this and other stuff has been mentioned
such as whether to be able to choose from a menu or whether to

I remember asking philip because I wanted to know if I could install the

Hi there,
I am completely confused as to how to play Time of Conflict. To basically cut
down what could be an extremely long discussion on the subject, I don’t feel
the manual goes into enough detail about game play so that I could actually
understand how it works. Even the Time of Conflict
Thomas,
I believe there are character input functions in the standard C library, at
least on Mac OS X. Look into getchar() and other variants which take streams
other than standard input. THis isn’t a C++-specific mechanism, but should
still work if you’re just doing console IO. I have manual
Escape is the same thing as exit; there's not a lot you can do about that.
If you want to skip the training, just plow through the rooms, wait for the
cutscene to end and then save your game with s. You can then reload and end up
at the start of the first level.

This was a lot better than the reply I'd drafted; thanks. One note though about zombie steps: if you raise the volume to much you'll end up losing accuracy of the sounds. Also, I personally find it a little disorienting after a certain point, because
the steps sound much closer than the bullet
I'd be glad to give you a hand. What exactly are you having trouble with; the

Hi Zachary,
I am well aware of getchar, but that isn't quite what I am looking
for. Sure a person could use getchar to pause the screen, but getchar
doesn't provide the exact same functionality as getch in terms of
processing keyboard input without waiting for the enter key to be
pressed. So I
Hi Charles,
What I am in visioning is just a standard text based program using the

to review the screen if needed. That is in fact one reason I want to

Hi Philip,
Well, as I explained in a previous post I know about getchar, and
unfortunately it isn't quite what I am looking for. Besides pausing
the screen I want a function that will act upon a key immediately
rather than waiting for the enter key which getch does and getchar
won't.
However, I
Hi Thomas,
getchar is, as you know, about as basic as you can get but at least it is
standardized. getch is not, nor would a custom pseudo getch hack be. It's
bound to exhibit different behavior on various platforms and you'd have to
have access to all of them to verify. If you want immediate

Sorry, I am not sure how to advise you as it sounds like you have an
