I7 : Clarifying on Clauses for Every Turn Rules

[Jeff Nyman]

I'm pretty sure what I describe here isn't possible by design but I
just wanted to be sure. In my classroom "remake" of Trinity, we're
putting in scene prods for the player. I have:

Every turn during Prologue:
if the player is in the Palace Gate:
....

That works, course. I could also do this:

Every turn while the player is in Palace Gate:
if Prologue is happening:
...

The following two variations are what just about every class try:

Every turn during Prologue when the player is in the Palace Gate:
Every turn during Prologue while the player is in Palace Gate:

Those most definitely do not work. I just want to make sure that this
is expected behavior.

The "during" part has to come at the end, as mentioned in section 18.6
of the manual. So these work:

Every turn when the player is in the Palace Gate during Prologue:
[...]
Every turn while the player is in Palace Gate during Prologue: [...]

Much thanks. This is something I should have caught myself. As with my
post to Victor, I'm finding that trying to handle two sets of textual
IF class materials is making me miss a lot of obvious stuff.
