Labels and Levers
« on: July 11, 2007, 04:54:00 pm »

For those of us with short memories and a leaning toward complex lever setups, it'd be great to be able to label the levers in order to see what they control. Alternatively, the levers could list what they control, and with the player being able to name these objects. ("Front Door" is a lot more mnemonic than "Granite Door", for example.)

Hear, hear! that sounds good to me. I would use it to label my lava-flood lever "Don't Push!"

My lava-lever would be labelled, "Pull me for a good time!" Then I would abandon and share that fortress...

Now which of these 150 levers was linked to the farm...

*Adventurer comes across Level labeled:
"Great wealth will come to the one who pulls this lever"

*Adventurer pulls level.

*A four ton gold block falls on the adventurer.
