Hello everyone, I am new to this community. I have been playing ZZT for quite a while and have a decent grasp on ZZT-OOP. I am currently making my first game, which is titled Escape from Alcatraz. I have one problem with the programming aspect, however: I'm trying to put a #send command in, but it won't work. Could anyone please help me with this quandry?

Hello, welcome to z2. It's always nice to see a new person interested in zzt.

Sorry, but I'm not sure what "that hyperlink thing" is.

Welcome to Z2! It's great to see a newbie.

As for the hyperlink thing... here is an example of how to use a basic hyperlink. I hope this is what you meant.

Code: Select all

@someobject
#end

:touch
YO BABY YO BABY YO

!command;Click this
/i
#end

:command
You clicked the hyperlink!

Thank you very much. By the way, this board has some delightfully wacky emoticons, such as the following: :magicmissle:

yeah, sometimes we get humourless assholes like smallhacker whining about how we shouldn't have cool emoticons and how we should have normal boring ones like

or whatever, but we're PUNK AS FUCK and we don't BOW THE MAN so the cool ones stay.

anyway, welcome to z2!!!!!!!! we're happy to have you as long as you're not a lame whiner.
