Ok.. and i'm actually going to top post for this...
when done is should read
$Player{Location}="Inn";
require '$Player{Location}.pl';
whixh is the same as
require 'Inn.pl';
and then
'$Player{Location}'::HTML();
which is the same as
Inn::HTML();
Do i have the vars correct so that if I want to change
$Player{Location}="Inn";
to
$Player{Location}="Gate";
the program would require the correct package
require "Gate.pl"
and the call on the sub HTML in that package?
Gate::HTML();
