Hi guys. I’m using Inform 7.
My problem is, I’ve got a person, and I want the player to use the ‘wake’ or ‘wake up’ commands on the person, but for the command to simply be the same as examining the person.
I’ve tried:
understand the command “wake” as something new.
understand the command “wake” as “examine”.
now when I type “wake (person’s name)” while playing the game, it examines them, and carries out all the stuff I want it to do.
However, if I’m playing, and I type “wake up (person’s name)” it doesn’t examine the person, or treat it as the ‘wake’ command! Instead, I get the message:
“I only understand you as far as wanting to wake up.”
So, to summarise, if I type “wake (person’s name)” and “wake up (person’s name)” the program does something different.
I tried adding the lines:
understand the command “wake up” as something new.
understand the command “wake up” as “examine”.
but it still just says
“I only understand you as far as wanting to wake up.”
