      1.How many conversation fields are there in the editor?
      I run the editor in 1024x768 and can see 18 fields.
      In the built-in levels the fields refer to numbers higher than 20 and even 100.

      2.Is it possible to control what field will be used first when you approach a character?

      3.And the last question about lightning...
      When a scythe passes through torches or any other light sources the colors on the scythe gets totally messed up.
      Why?

      1. I think the 18 you see is it. What I've seen is that, when a goto is specified for an empty or nonexistent conv field, the conversation terminates. Ben uses it to terminate conversations, and I know of no other way. Why different numbers are used by him on occasion (I've seen both 20 and 100), I dunno.
      2. Yes. In pre-conversation actions (the button on the lower left), specify a goto line X, where X is the field that you want to go to first.
      3. Dunno. Because Ben didn't care to fix it? 🙂 I guess he just avoided the problem, since i can't think of an instance where a scythe/spiked ball passes through a light source.

      Coversations And Agravations!

      I'm having trouble with my Been Here Check (And I copied it right off a working conv).

      Set Pre-Conv to 16.

      In 16 I have (been here check)

      Condition: 4 Arg: 1
      Goto: 6
      If
      Goto: 5

      The first time, the second time, any time I talk to the character it always goes to line 5! Why isn't my been here check working?
