Hello,

I would like to know how to create an inform NPCs that can use in character (diegetic) commands that player uses.

Specificaly, I would like, for example, that some NPC, say a boy that you meet in a game, can turn on and off light. Even when he is not in the same location as a player. And to be even more precise, I don't want that he does it with a statement like

give switch/lamp/room light
give switch/lamp/room ~light

but I would like that he actualy uses a command like

push the button

so that if I would stuck the button with the chewing gum, for example, he could not do it.

Thank you in advance.

The new Inform6 library 6/12 has built-in support for giving orders to
NPCs.
