! This file contains NAMES that can be used instead of numeric values
! when you are writing scripts or creating worlds. These names make
! it a lot easier to create the games because you don't have to remember
! what the numbers mean. You can use the name instead.
!
! For example, the script line:
!
! if object.type = WEAPON then ..
!
! clearly is testing whether a given object is of type WEAPON. It is
! a lot better than trying to remember that weapons are represented by
! a # 1, as in:
!
! if object.type = 1 then ..
!
! You are welcome to add new tokens to this list, and to change the names
! being used. However, you should not REMOVE entries unless you are very
! sure of what you are doing.
!
! Tokens are listed in groups, with the name of the group enclosed in
! brackets [group-name] and preceeding each group. You can create your
! own groups, but the groups already here must remain. You can change
! the lists, but the group names must not be changed. They are used to
! tell the game system what names are associated with specific types of
! values.
!
! A brief explanation of what the values in a group mean preceeds each
! group.
!
! EDITING OF THIS FILE WILL BRING NO BENEFITS TO THE PLAYER, AND MAY MESS UP
! THE GAME. SO, EVEN THOUGH IT LOOKS LIKE A FILE THAT COULD REALLY HELP A
! PLAYER TO CHEAT - IT'S NOT. <G.
!
! TYPES OF ACTIONS THAT INVOKE SCRIPTS.
! The value shown below cannot be modifed. The name can be changed to any
! name you wish. When a script is invoked, it starts executing at the
! label :@<name>, where name is one of those listed below. The ACTION
! global variable returns the value of the action that invoked the script.
!

!-------------------------------------------------------------------------
!
! OBJECT MODIFIERS:
!
! Every object has a set of 5 'generic' attributes which have different
! meaning depending on the object's type. These attributes are named
! m0 through m4, but this section allows you to assign specific names to
! the attributes.
!
! For example, a WEAPON may use the attributes as follows:
!
! object.m0 = # of HANDS needed to hold the weapon (0, 1 or 2)
! object.m1 = RANGE of the weapon (how many squares away can it hit)
! object.m2 = DAMAGE done during battle (deducted from monster's hit points)
! object.m3 = Type of AMMUNITION used by the weapon (if any)
! object.m4 = not used for weapons
!
! Thus, the following definitions are made below:
!
! .M0 = HANDS
! .M1 = RANGE
! .M2 = DAMAGE
! .M3 = AMMONEEDED
!
! Which means that your script can have the line:
!
! if player.weapon.hands > 2 then
! writeln( "That weapon was made for an octupuss, which you are not.." );
! ..
!
! instead of
!
! if player.weapon.m0 > 2 then
! writeln( "That weapon was made for an octupuss, which you are not.." );
! ..
!
! NOTE: The names listed below are 'aliases' for the real names m0 through m4,
! which exist for all objects. No attempt is made to verify that the alias
! you have used is 'valid' for the object's type. Thus, the following line
! is also equivalent to the two lines in the example above:
!
! if player.weapon.ac > 2 then
! writeln( "That weapon was made for an octupus, which you are not.." );
! ..
!
! because the alias 'ac' is an alias for m0, the same as the alias 'hands'.

! WORLD DENSITIES
!
! These values are used to represent the landscaping density, and are
! used by the game driver to determine where a player can go, whether
! walking or riding a vehicle. The values between 0 and 15 are reserved
! for use by the game system, but you can add new values from 16 to 255.
!
! For example, you might use value 27 to indicate a block that is a
! magical gate. If you step on the gate at exactly midnight, you get
! transported somewhere. You can then add some lines to the control
! script to check for midnight, and at exactly midnight verify if the
! character is standing on a landscape block with density 27. If so,
! you would transfer the character to wherever you wanted to go.
!
! Any density value over 15 is treated as a 0, which means that it is
! equivalent to LAND (i.e. the character can walk on it, but a raft or
! boat cannot).
