Adding Verb Alternatives to Base-Game Verbs

How would I go about this? For example, if I knew someone who would type "view" instead of "look" how would I mkae a Verb Alternative for Look?

The main problem I'm having is that I'm attempting to make "Speak to" work if the player types any of the following: "Speak; speak to; speak with; talk; talk to; talk with" but I put that in the Verb list and it said something about this overriding the default verb. Well, problem is that none of those verbs work except the first one on the list!

I'm confused?

Having "speak" first will break "speak to" and "speak with" - because Quest will parse "speak to character" with a verb of "speak" and an object called "to character".

So, put the more general verb last. Add the verb under Game/Verbs like this:


speak to; speak with; speak; talk to; talk with; talk


Then when adding the verb to an object, don't use the built-in "speak" verb. Add your new "speak to" verb instead.
