Positions of items on tables

Post by L!ghthouse »

I am having problems with the table right now. Can we get ability to place items on the table in a north, east, south, west fashion instead (or also)? Kind of like how DM2's tables worked? I tried doing this manually in the txt file, but it still didn't work.

I wasn't aware you could place items in the middle positions in DMII !

I'll have a look at DMII and see how it does it.

Fair enough - I think I prefer the RTC way, but could change it if that was the prevailing opinion...

Ah, yes! I like Beowuuf's suggestion. Leave the one as is, but create another that is a wallobject. That should do the trick!

Would you have to place this on an invisible wall tile so that it displays things behind it, or is there another way around this?

The table acted as a monster in DM2. A very specific one.

Ah yes, DM2 and it's wacky monsters, like the invisible one that pened all the doors - or was it pits...
