Darkness Issue

Postby Lazzah » Mon Jul 30, 2012 8:13 am

Hi all, a problem has manifested since the release of v.5.24 and I would like to know if it is happening to other people, or is it just me?

Where I have dark locations, if I play through the game using my macros without saving at any stage, the dark locations work normally, i.e. if you are carrying the light source the location text is displayed, if not then "It is totally dark, you cannot see a thing." is displayed.

However, if I save my game at any stage and then continue, the dark locations do not work properly even if you are carrying the light source. Either "It is totally dark, you cannot see a thing." or "Nothing special." are displayed - the latter on my PC at work.

Can anyone who has a game with dark locations please check this out. Thanks.

I think this should be fixed in the next release. However, I think it may have been around before 5.0.24 as it's to do with the way properties are inherited from the group, and I don't think I changed that in the last release.

I did have one dark location in the game that would not display properly before 5.24, but all the rest were OK.
