Hey Guys,

my problem is that I don't know how to look in a container! I tried to use "look at" and "show"...
It works if I type "show" but this shows me the full Room discription... I need a command that will allow me to see what is inside the chest/container.

Could someone help, please?

In the container tab of your object activate the feature "List children when object is looked at or opened"

If you have a chest made of glass you don't have to open the chest to see whats in it, you can just look through it. Because it's transparent

if I understand this stuff correctly... (lol):

Object.transparent = true

( http://quest5.net/wiki/Transparent ) you can 'see' the "child" Objects (the "sub" objects held by~within the Object containing them that you're looking at), but you can't interact with those "child" Objects until you open up the container Object that they're within.

Object.scenery = true

( http://quest5.net/wiki/Scenery and http://quest5.net/wiki/Interacting_with_objects ) you can't 'see' the "child" objects (of the Room Object that 'contains' them), but you can interact with them still...

Object.visible = false

( http://quest5.net/wiki/Visible ) makes the object hidden to the person playing the game, a somewhat similar conceptual effect as the "scenery=true"

hopefully this helps, and is correct, lol
