[Adventuron] Trouble with create and worn

Authoring Adventuron

What worked before doesn’t seem to work anymore.

start_at = my_location

locations {
   my_location : location "You are in a room." ;
}

on_command {
   : match "get boot"  {
      : create "boot" target = "inventory"  worn = "true" ;
#     : create "boot" target = "inventory_worn";
      : print "You take and put on the boot." ;
      : done ;
   }
   : match "wear boot"  {
      : wear "boot" ;
      : done ;
   }
}

objects {
   boot : object "a boot" at = "my_location"   wearable = "true" ;
}

You are in a room.
You see a boot.
>WEAR BOOT
You wear the boot.
>i
You are carrying:
Nothing
>Get BOOT
You take and put on the boot.
>I
You are carrying:
a boot

There was a bug here, and it should be fixed in the beta version ( adventuron.io/beta ).

Let me know if this fixes it.

Additionally, in the beta version, you can add the following setting:

game_type = verb_noun, and it will validate that your game is ONLY verb/noun, and will stop adventuron from adding system prepositions. It will also add a system level error message if the player types in 3 words (press control + space in the system_messages {} ) section to find the new system message. I added this to make it easier to build verb noun games, but mostly so that players could have confidence that the game would only ever require 2 word inputs, which should result in less stress and suspicion by the player that they will encounter a “goat puzzle”-like parser quirk.

The Beta 65q did not fix the issue. Whether with target = "inventory" worn = "true" or target = "inventory_worn", the create function does not change the worn state of the object.

And the issue remains with wear "boot", but works well with wear without OBJECT_ID:

wear “boot” (with OBJECT_ID):

You are in a room.
You see a boot.
>WEAR BOOT
You wear the boot.
>I
You are carrying:
Nothing
>WEAR BOOT
You are already wearing that.
>

wear without OBJECT_ID:

You are in a room.
You see a boot.
>WEAR BOOT
You don’t have it.

Please try with beta 65s.

There is still the issue about wear with OBJECT_ID. Create works.

6

Please try with beta 65t.

With this directive ‘game_type = verb_noun’, I can no longer use the verb command for synonyms in the vocabulary block:

“Command Verbs not permitted in verb/noun parser mode.”

8

Please press F5 and try again.

9

With game_type = verb_noun, adjectives for nouns are no longer recognized.

10

Is there a reason for adjectives to be recognised in a 2 word parser?

11

None. I said adjectives instead of synonyms, which should be recognized.

I’ll certainly fix it if synonyms for nouns are not working as they should.

None. I said adjectives instead of synonyms, which should be recognized.

Should be fixed now, press F5.
