Well, Dah'kree, your solution for power is more rational than some of the Myst schemes, so go to it. Looks like you are having great fun developing your building skills, and I look forward to a visit -- maybe you will let me turn on the lights?

Journal not working: Collecting data and will be posted soon

Cannot click on journal. Export seems OK, as does the log files show that it loads python script. genJournalRegion is big enough to hold avatar.

From age export:

Heh, thanks pappou...Though lights wont work until i get python scripts up and running... and Im only doing tests (with the journal) to make sure that my python is working, witch it isnt...

[dah'kree]

Success!
Thanks to andylegate, I managed to get to get the journals working.

i have to say this is the cooliest thing ive read about in a while. this sounds like a very solid age and if it goes well ( like its sounds like it is) then this will be one of the number one fan made ages i cant wait to try it out when its done!!

i hope when i make my age that its will be as cool as yours! keep up the good work!
