Just figured out the advanced editor!!!

Does anybody remember how good it feels to figure out how to use items and variables for the first time? I just did. This is probably a pointless post, but who cares? I figured out the advanced editor!!

Not really...
It was easier to figure out before the following:

Scripting
2 or more Variables
1 Million types of Restrictions.

Of course, what you could do with it was limited.
When everything new came, it wasn't really exciting to refigure it out.

Ask alex to enable it for you, right now the feature is limited to members who ask for it, you could say that it is in its Beta stage, make sure to read the Basic Scripting article, its well written by Alex, you should have little trouble understanding it.

I know how to use the advance editor for the most part. I just normaly don't, it's great and all ( it really is ) I just normaly use the basic editor, I grew up around basic versions of CYOA and just kind of stuck with it.

Not good if you get them second hand though (I don't, but I've come across some of them and some idiots write stuff in pen so you can't erase it or play it again).

Yeah, I don't like advance CYOA books. There too much of a pain.

And you can cheat with them.. just say you have every item.

Just figured out the advanced editor!!!

Yeah, that too. I normaly just choose the paths and forget about the other "game aspects".

Haha! Somehow I knew you would put something like that. I agree though, I just can't work with them myself. I love playing the stories you make with the advance editor.

I meant in books. On the website advanced is more interesting by far.

Just figured out the advanced editor!!!

Ah yes. In books, I think basic, because it is WAY to easy to cheat in advanced ones (then again basic is pretty easy to cheat too, but not so much if you want all of the endings.)

You can just use bookmarks in basic books. But you can go back in any adventures on this site though.
