Awake I am - I have even been taking short peeks at the forum the past few weeks, without logging in though.
Apologies are in place - I might at least have shown a lifesign... it gets so awkward to reappear, after a time...
Stay put I.Brattin; it may yet come to the Rell-Too janitorial duties falling onto your offered shoulders, should I prove unable to improve...
I have cleaned out an overflowing mailbox and am in the middle of skimming several pages of posts since my last visit, despite the late hour, whilst resisting spamming y'awl with responses to them all. :P
So, where are we at, then? Not a whole lot has happened, I'm afraid, with me barely doing anything Uru-related until the last two days.
I had originally planned to start a book of commentary (apart from the visitor's log), for the age, but decided that's quite hopeless, since the age is in a constant state of flux.
Instead I'm adding a fall that makes the Ghareesen journey door jump not seem that deadly after all. :P
I have spent this entire weekend cutting-and-pasting, trialling-and-erroring the constricting scripting beast and probably making some sort of progress, even though I haven't got a clue as to what I'm doing. Hopfully I am at a point where I'll just need to figure out a non-clunky way to get my responder runners out of OnNotify() and into OnSDLNotify(), which I'm assuming might spare D'Lanor and his peers a collective ulcer, then we'll see if I can't get something released. If it drags out, I'll just have to cobble the rest together and leave my new combination lock dysfunctional for now.
There, that's my whingy story - I'll try to be more frequent now.
Core43 contributed a nice new linking book object, which will replace the closed one on the nexus pedestal, for the next update, so there will be SOMETHING in it at least - it's good when others compensate for one's own shortcomings. :)
Your's apologetically,
