Ok, two things. First, is there any possible way to add more colors to the game, besides the red/green/black/yellow/white originals? And, how do I change the way entering a room is displayed. What I mean is, I know how to make the room display something other than "You are in the Bedroom," but I want to display something else for objects, other than, "There is MILK in the room." Can that be done? Thanks

You can use RRGGBB values (as you would in HTML) by prefixing them with &H in a foreground or background command or tag. For example in ASL,


foreground <&HFF0000>


is red. You can specify values in hexadecimal between 00 and FF.

You can completely customise room descriptions - see "How to Customise Room Descriptions" in the help file or at http://www.axeuk.com/quest/developer/as ... ptions.htm
