Oh, awesome. I remember reading that, but totally forgot about it.

Alternatively, first say() an empty text, or just spaces, then get its sp_x() and sp_y(), then say_[stop_]xy() all following lines at whatever coordinates. Maybe that works.

That works. E.g.

void talk
int &mesay = say("`%<- Pub",&current_sprite)
int &mex = sp_x(&mesay,-1)
int &mey = sp_y(&mesay,-1)
&mex -= 235
&mey += 20
say_xy("`%-> Inn",&mex,&mey)

void hit
say("I want hanging signs!",1)
}
