Re: ZZT-OOP questions

Yeah, sorry about the flurry of edits; that was "the process", me figuring out a fix, trying everything. Tidied it up; cheers. Thanks for all the advice. I found a really rudimentary way to do the "clear all objects" thing, but now I have a better one. :) Not sure why a 17k board...

Re: ZZT-OOP death-related question (Please help!)

Okay! One more question.

Is it possible to make every instance of an object on screen #die with one command?

I've picked up a project from a good decade ago to work on again, and I'm running into a silly little ZZT-OOP issue. I'm sure it's an oversight on my part, but basically I have monsters that I've programmed to take, say, 5 health on contact, 20 health for the harder hitters. However, when the player...
