Most of my hold doesn't use scripting. However, 2N1W uses scripting for a simple introduction to "don't kill stuff", and 2N1E also uses scripting (albeit for two puzzles, not one)

Could you just give me four instead of five?

Anyway, I can't tell where I placed, but I think I managed to get somewhere in the top ten.

It's ok to use scripting, just not as the way to catch a monster killing and block Beethro. Is that what 2N1E does?

For the compiler....

Here's a version of Ahimsa that definitely fixes the kill in the final room, and hopefully fixes the serpent kill in the entrance. Use this one for the compilation, please.

True - I used scripting only in one room without monsters.

Here's an updated version of my entry for possible later use. (Attempts to fix monster killing in 1S2E and 2N2E)
EDIT: Outdated version removed, is now found on the architecture board and later in the compilation hold.

My "secret offer" for several rank points was for most monsters in a hold, which could've been interesting considering the limitations. I never got to counting them, though, and there should've been some kind of restrictions because some of the entries contained tons of them serving practically no purpose. Meh...

Actually, the golem refuses to open a door if, at some point, you have killed a monster. But yeah, that's basically it.

Well, I gave you +3 for almost using no scripting... Plus that rounds your rank points to a multiple of 50.

For what it's worth (5 rank points apparently), there's no scripting affecting gameplay in my hold either.

Ezlo,

Has anyone offered to take this over from you? If you can't find a qualified person to do this, I'm willing to to give it a shot myself. Hopefully, though, someone who knows more what they're doing will handle it...

Josh

Hmm, the first one had only four holds, while this one has twenty. Plus I need story. Yep, an improvement alright. I'll need more materials.

Any particular date you want it by, or should I just build the stupid thing already?

No, no, you have to give him something to aim for.

Next Monday would be great, Chaco!

(No, not the 19th...we're not unreasonable taskmasters! Take until the 26th!)

Here's what my basic plan for the hold is so far:

1. Beethro spends the night before the main hold at a relative's house. Finished.

2. Beethro heads to King Ryui's castle. Finished.

3. Beethro enters the castle and meets Ryui. Finished.

4. Ryui tells Beethro the DtD introductory story. Not finished.

5. Beethro moves on and clears the twenty or so holds. Beethro can hear the story again at any time. Not finished.

6. Beethro says goodbye to Ryui and leaves.

7. Beethro heads home (maybe, I might just end the hold when Beethro leaves the castle)

Here's my fixed version.

Chaco, please start a thread in architecture, and don't be too hasty with the compilation. There are a lot of bugs that haven't been mentioned. (The only authors who know about all their bugs, to my knowledge, are Banjooie, BeefRow, Jason, Krishh, and I suppose Pilchard VIII ;))Give authors a chance to fix their holds. I'll post a list of bugs.

OK, here's the bug list. Some of these may have been mentioned and even fixed, but I didn't include everything I know has been mentioned, except for jogging Banjooie's memory. I did check all this by playtesting (mostly in the editor). Please just ask if you want a demo.

"Can be conquered" means you can conquer the room and still complete the hold (there are other rooms where conquering means you're stuck). In a lot of rooms you can kill something while standing on a door that's supposed to prevent it (i.e. the basic scripting method: the door closes when something is killed). Not a big deal if you first have to solve the room as intended, but I include them in case the authors want to fix it.

I think I figured out the tar baby kill, and I think I pretty much nailed the mimic bug, but I have no idea how to deal with the slayer kill--nor where you kill him.

Punch a hole in the tar (3rd square from the bottom), and kill him the usual way. Easy to fix - put arrows in the entrance.

Oh, another thing: The stairs in L1:Ent end the hold.
