Dunno but have uyou tried asking it about itself using the debugger? Call the description methjod or look at the coordinates... One wee observation: rooms = [] class Room: def __init__(self,coords): self.contents = [] self.description = '' self.coords = coords world[tuple(coords)] = self rooms.append(self) self.exits = {} I'd either make rooms a class variable which can be accessed from outside the class with Room.rooms or I'd make the append operation a responsibility of the calling client. Otherwise every time you try to use the Room class in another program you will need to create a rooms global variable. Since the purpose of rooms is to keep a register of all the rooms in existence I'd argue it should be a class variable. Just a matter of style it doesn't really affect the operation here. And certainly doesn't fix your extra room problem! Alan G. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
