      No, but there is a way to make a timer that ticks down at the bottom. 🙂 Just set a condition for the game time to display messages. Hint, the time tick rate is twenty a second.

      Oh, and Eminem, stop posting in this topic.

    • What all needs to be done to make a level multiplayer only? I tried to modify one so that Tyrael and me could play it, and it didn't work. It kept going back to the default levels.

    • Slug, in your Iron Fist plug, I can't seem to fulfill the winning conditions for "Raiders of the lost Narc". Even though I've killed everything and captured both planets, I still don't get the winning condition. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong? Maybe you could start a thread that has to do with help topics. Or no...

      Hi there! Being in the publishing business, I could probably turn your Simple Text Manual version into a miracle in Quark XPress, and then into a pdf document, readable by all (thanks to those wonderful people at Adobe!). The current manual is, shall we say somewhat lacking in printability, not to mention readability...

      Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

    • Is there a way to make a cruise missile type thing? I tried making a warping ship that looks like a missile and inherits destination with an arrive sequence of dying and creating a missile, but it didn't work.

      ------------------
      "I can ail what cures you."

    • Nono, just make this the arrive sequence:

      -ALTER:
      ->OBJECT TYPE CMISSILE
      -->KEEP AMMO set to OFF

      Ta da! (there's a thing like that in StarLance except that it's a planet-to-planet Nuclear Missile, supposed to decimate the planet so you can send colony ships to colonize it)

    • Well, you could have KEEPAMMO set to ON, but you might get some strange results...

      Oh, I'm not saying those Alduran ships are bad. In fact, they make excellent minesweepers. Once.

    • Slug. You have a website. So tell me how to get one!

      ------------------

    • Just go to (url="http://"http://www.treeway.com")treeway.com(/url)(the service I used for the Slugsoft site before the merger with Axis), (url="http://"http://www.homestead.com")homestead.com(/url), (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com")angelfire.com(/url) (What Slugsoft used for miscalanious image and sound storage), (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com")geocities.com(/url)..... there are literally hundreds of free webpage sites out there......

    • Slug, where's your new site?

      By the way, tree, Geocities is a good one to use because they have an excellent file manager.

    • Don't have a new site. I use the Axis Software Integrated site, but I keep losing the darned link!

      Except for the annoying ad. When my family subscribed to @home cable, we got 10 free megs of web space. There was a time when Apple was giving out 20, and we got that too. Now only if I was allowed to use it...

      I'm still trying to find a good one...

    • I answered my own question: it is.

    • How do you make a beam weapon like the trazer that fires ONLY forward?

      Try taking off the exclamation point. Which sounds more serious:

      Behold the Avatar of Fire!
      or
      Behold the Avatar of Fire
