Inform 7 newbie here. I want to make it so that when the player enters “run” or “run [direction]” as an action, they get the message “It’s too hot to run anywhere.” However, I can’t seem to figure out how to overwrite Inform’s default responses to the “run” command. This is what I tried:
Running is an action applying to nothing.
Understand "run" as running.
Carry out running:
say "It's too hot to run anywhere."
Besides the “something new” approach, these commands could be treated as mistakes. I think people forget that mistakes can do conditional text; they’re very powerful. I often forget, anyway.
