Inform Scoring


4 Jun 1995 18:28:59 GMT

I'm programming a game using Inform on a mac, and I want to create a
scoring system somewhat like Beuracracy's- The player starts with, say, 50
points, and certain (dumb) actions cause the points to go down. If it
hits 0, the player dies. In the (otherwise great) Inform manual it says
that the status line and scoring is completely programmable, but I can't
find information on actually doing it. (I also want to customize the
status line so it says something other than "score". I also want a pony
for Christmas.)

Any Inform gurus able to offer any help for a poor floundering novice
would be greatly loved and adored. Thanks.
