The Dink Network

Im making a Dmod, yes, and the problem is that i cant leave the screen i start it :| Ive edit some screens around the first screen, but it still doesnt work (+ i havent activated screenlock).
Anybody knows what my problem is?

And, i wonder - How do i activate the statusbar?`The things with Strenght, def, magic, ammount of life and so on,,,

Thanks

This activates the status bar

&update_status = 1;
draw_status();

Um....the status bar should be activated all by itself.
And try looking around the screen edges, maybe you placed some objects with hardness or made hardness around it, lol

He is probably not using an skeleton Hoewever he can still be using Morpheus skeleton too, and that one sucks since the status bare doesnt show up, here is a tip for you, Download the skeleton b from mike snyder. thst will do the trick

Yup...Skeleton B is the best.

...Actually, it *might* be the best but it lacks some stuff, like some of the graphics.

That you can't walk to any other screen from the starting screen is because you're on a screen that doesn't really exist. Check your start.c and look for &player_map = xxx;

Change xxx to the number of the map where you want Dink to start in.

EDIT: make that start-1.c instead of start.c

That doesn't effect anything, and it's set if you are looking at the screen because that varible is what controls which screen is drawn.

and that's why skeleton B sucks. I thought about releasing another skeleton with a clean dink.ini and all the graphics etc. but didn't do it since I felt it was too similar with the other skeletons. heh. Someone who it doesn't bother could go and release a clean skeleton. I've done my own skeleton dmod though, and I've used the same one for around 3 years.

Does Skeleton b suck because the lines in dink.ini Well it is better than skeleton x and thats for shure. and there is no point realeasing a new skeleton is it? it is already 3 of them and they are pretty good , but i am not going to tell you what to do.

//Uh, I think somewhere in start-1.c of your
//story folder you have to put in something
//like Glennglenn said:

&update_status = 1;
draw_status();

//I think that should do the trick.
