|
========
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
TEMPLENG is a text adventure game engine based on my earlier, standalone
|
||
|
|
EttinOS port of In the Temple.

||
|
|
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
Press any key other than escape to start the game or to return back to
|
||
|
|
the beginning after an ending, the corresponding number to choose an
|
||
|
|
option in a non-ending scene, or escape to quit the game.

|
|
|

|
|
Included in the package is TEMPLE, a TEMPLENG port of the web-based text
|

The data files
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A data file consists of an intro text ending in a null followed by any
|
||
|
|
number of scenes. See the included TEMPLE.DAT for an example.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A scene begins with a start of heading (0x1) and consists of its ID, the
|
||
|
|
number of options it has, and the scene text, all ending in a null. The
|
||
|
|
ID of a scene consists of a string of numbers representing the choices
|
||
|
|
that lead to it, and can be between 2 and 255 characters long including
|
||
|
|
the null. The ID of the first scene is 0. The number of options can be
|
||
|
|
anything between 0 and 9, 0 indicating an ending. The options of a scene
|
||
|
|
must point to scenes placed after it in the data file. The scene text
|
||
|
|
should not exceed 24 lines or all of it won't fit on the screen at once.
