At it stands, wading though the base code is a bit of a mess, trying to find certain key events in order to override them. I'm going to separate some of these out into another file, and call them "hooks". These will be separate small functions that can be expanded upon instead of having to override big, complex functions.

These are not events called by the engine, but instead, game events that the base code takes care of. Here's a list of some so far, please add any along the same lines you think would be good--

door_hits_party
door_hits_monster
monster_takes_damage
party_falls_down
party_climbs_up

When I override an event in DSB, I always write the name down in startup.lua and add it to my list. That way, when you announce a new version, I can easily ignore most of the changes that you do rather than having to compare each one line by line.

Here are a few I'd really like.
party goes to sleep
party wakes up
game gets saved
game gets loaded
I may add more as I think about them.

Those are more game engine things but I'll make sys_ functions for them.
