Letting my wife testing my first draft of my first #inform7 #InteractiveFiction. She's complaining that it's not interactive enough because she can't set the house on fire or go outside or beat up one of the characters
@oblomov lol. Lemme try

@oblomov That’s a high bar for interactivity. Like wandering into Second Life and asking where the weapons vendor is

@oblomov she can beat you up, it’s an exclusive perk for beta testers.

@jimfl also she wants the titles of the books on the shelves. I'm going to at least make sure the query is correctly understood, but the reply will be that the playing character doesn't care about them, for the time being 8-D (when I want to go full immersion like Ultima 8 I'll look into filling in the tiles and possibly even the contents of the books 8-D)

@travisfw I'll give it another couple of in-family testing before making anything public, sorry 8-D

She did find a number of legitimate bugs too.

@oblomov @jimfl You could just put in a quick:
say "You leaf through [one of]the complete works of Marcel Proust, in pristine condition[or]some second-hand detective novels[or]a copy of [italic type]The Art of the Deal[roman type], in which someone has written admiring marginalia[or]a book on writing interactive fiction with Inform 7[or][italic type]Vector Algebra, 4th edition[roman type][at random], but quickly decide you have other things to do."

@victorgijsbers @jimfl oooooooh that's amazing! Thank you very much!

@victorgijsbers I've managed to implement a variant of your idea using a Table of Book Titles (so I finally learned how tables are used) and I really like the effect! I also managed to trigger an Inform compiler bug by making the table too large, but I think you've see my post about that already. The problem is, I'm sure now my wife will try to make the character pick one of the books by title, so I need to replace the "I can't see any such thing" with an appropriate error message!

@valigiablu Vogliamo veramente trovare delle giustificazioni storiche all' avidità di Putin e la sua cricca di mafiosi oligarchi? Mah.

@stefano I've been in your exact place! It's so frustrating! That reminds me, I need to tell my ISP to set my static IP via the ethernet port in my protectli and switch the Eero 6+ to bridged mode so I can control the firewall properly again. I've just been lazy. 😂

Vedi che ora va :D
Anni e anni fa cambiai la scheda wifi, in origine era solo wifi, poi ne misi usa col bluetooth ma fino ad oggi era senza antenna e quindi non prendeva niente neanche da vicino

Ho aggiunto anche l'antenna per il bluetooth visto che c'ero

@stefano residential line ?
Here in Belgium they filter out the ports 80/443 by default: "security measure".

to realize that it doesn't help. :)
