I7: how to categorically narrate failure for multiple try statements in a row? 
  Hi all, please tell me I'm missing something obvious here. Given: Instead of waiting: try the first stored action; try the second stored action. ..I would like to do something generic (i.e., not tied to what the action actually is) when either or both of these fail. The last one is easy -- an Every Turn rule can capture it regardless whether it... more »

I7: Time for a little Give and Take 
  I have an NPC in my game which, at some point, becomes "obedient" to the player. There may be other NPCs in the game, but they will not necessarily do what the player says.

I7: A question on kinds of kinds in a table? 
  Okay so to make a long story short, I'd like to define a number of "hats" in my game with tables. This is fine if you only want one of any given hat in the game world at any given time, but lets say we want the player to be able to have 20 baseball caps. Is there any way to define kinds via a table?... more »

Compiling I7 from the command line on Linux 
  Hello! I need to compile Inform 7 files from the command line. I'm running Ubuntu and Inform version 5Z71. What I've seen is that Inform 6 can be compiled using 'inform'. I've also seen evidence that there are two commands - 'i7' and 'ni' - that might be involved in compiling Inform 7, but neither work on my... more »

I7: my story produces a fatal memory error in Glulxe 
  Hello, I wonder if you folks can advise me. I'm trying to test my I7 project in the I7 editor, and I've run into a persistent crash. In one of the test paths I've set up, my story runs for 268 turns, doing various things, and then, at a point when an action causes an indexed text to be manipulated a bit and then printed out, the editor reports:... more »
