I decided to branch off and do a 'quickie' game.

I am trying to declare characters and it doesn't work right. I finally had to declare a female character as an object instead of a female_character.

Well, anyway, one of the objects has the 'female' attribute, but when I look at it, it changes and sometimes it has it and sometimes it doesn't. Also the character 'you' has the female attribute set which it shouldn't.

Here's a short piece: So in Init I have

I get the following There is something that is changing things, it is like attribute bits are being reversed, I had to code-force the player to 'player is not female' to keep it from including me in code that should only work for females, e.g. So that a command like "Kiss lisa" would work but "Kiss me" would not.

I am thinking I might just take what I wrote and refactor, or rewrite, or something.

I have a dresser as scenery in the player's room, and an object on it used to read as "There is an [object name] on top of the dresser" and now it reads "It has [object name".

I think I busted something. I'm going back to pristine, as released header files then carefully mark changes. I think I'll go through and rebuild the game by starting with a blank slate and add the items and features one at a time. I think I'll go back to a game with nothing but rooms then add the objects and characters back one at a time.
