Re: Nick's BIG DSB thread and Dungeon Re-Master
Right, you shouldn't do that. Just add your new entry to the table instead. (A brief explanation of how to add to a Lua table instead of replacing it is here: viewtopic.php?p=123399 ) Sounds ok in principle, but I just ran into a problem I saw that you and gambit already discussed - If you are repl...

Re: Nick's BIG DSB thread and Dungeon Re-Master
Sophia, I think I may be doing new conditions wrong (as in I recreated the table with all the old entries and added my own). I did see info on the wiki about dsb_add_condition and dsb_replace_condition and monfulir's examples seem to use them, but the wiki says "Deprecated" after both func...

This is very interesting and now I have a lot more testing to do on top of my lots of testing.
Thanks for the pointers on the lighting. I'll redo it and pay more attention.

Hilo! As you (the maybe 3 people reading this may know), I have recently taken a shine to DSB and decided to use it as a platform to remake Dungeon Master to my own tastes in DSB, under the working title "Dungeon Re-Master". I like DSB and I'm starting to get the hang of Lua so it makes se...
