Actually, if you press Alt to go to the menu bar, then W to go to the Window menu, you can select which pane you want. If you click Rooms, you'll be in the Rooms menu which ppears as a list view which can be accessed with the normal PC cursor. Then just go to the room you want to edit and press Enter. That should save you a lot of time and frustration. The one that gets me is the Task system. Maybe it's just me but the manual confused me a bit on that. I know you can have a character say something different if a particular task is or is not completed, but I'm not sure how to create a task really. I select what room I want the game to show the description for as well as any additional messages, but it tells me I haven't selected any rooms for the task to complete in. It makes no sense, but oh well. I'm also still a bit confused on the battle system. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rachel D Keyte" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 4:21 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Adrift Text Adventure Creator...
