Making Text Adventure work like Gamebook

I tried to follow your instruction here, TP: https://textadventures.co.uk/forum/samples/topic/4772/how-to-make-a-text-adventure-look-like-a-gamebook but couldn't get any links to show up. Bare in mind I'm not starting from scratch, but using an already existing game with all its mods etc.

I'd have replied to the thread, but Alex has implemented another great feature which closes threads after 60 days of inactivity.

Any ideas what I need to do to get the links showing up?

I tried it from scratch and it works, but still can't get the links to show in my existing game.

The obvious thing is to check you have ticked the "hyperlinks" on the Interface tab of the game object.

It's on the Features tab, but yes it's ticked.

Don't know then. If you like, you could e-mail it to me and I will take a look.

Thanks very much, but I got there by starting from scratch and adding in the scripts and CSS from my other game manually.

You can see my progress is my tester game, A Harsh Winter, submitted to the Game section :)
