Have these been taken away? Or are they still available and if yes, what are they? I cant seem to find them in the rules.

They were removed - hopefully when they get a chance they will add them in, since they already have them for the NPC scripts anyway.

Well whatever the situation is, I hope we can get to use them again. I really found them useful.

Just checked, and those that used to work (I tested %Pilot% and %Commander%) didn't work.

Ah, so they've changed them completely. I wodner if the !if %wildcard%! stuff works as well - one of the reason for most of your blanks is they are designed to be used in that !if ! command.

Yes Ellias, it does work, just without the %'s in there so if your character is %100 unharmed and you did this in the room description:

!if character.unharmed! Hello
It would display Hello.

If you did this:

!if character.slightlywounded! Hello

It wont display unless you are slightly wounded. This should be updated in the rules page and news page as this is vital information. Thanks AT for the find and Ellias for more input. Also thanks to others as well.

Again I input stuff in to see what would happen


19 !if character.unharmed! Hello
19.5 !if %character.unharmed%! Hello

and got

19Hello
19.5 !if ! Hello

So yeah it seems correct.
