Hi im new to quest, well not too new, im just starting out to create my first adventure game, ive got some nice rendered graphics to play with, and im building my basic story, except somethings missing.
Theres no open or close commands? so how do i add these into the game so i can use them.
i guess the use command is the same but i want to have an open and close command. For example..open the curtains, nothing complex.
i went through the help files but got a little lost on where to put it..so someone help?

well.....ive had a bit to drink, but im sure i can help you there. you simple edit the room which the curtains are in, and you goto misc, then custom player commands. you then add a command which will be something like /open curtains, you will then need to add a script, so wotever u want to happen when u type in the script....happens (funnily enough). but im not that good at it either, so if anybody thinks thats wrong, please correct me lol

One last thing, how do you stop objects from reappearing. For example in a storage locker there is a watch, a wallet and some trousers.
you can put the trousers on, and take the watch, but if you examine the drawer again they reappear how do you stop that from happening.

In Q3.x: Use the "Gain" (put in the inventory) command.
In Q2.x: Make object anavailable, or sent it to a Junkroom (a room you made just for keeping objects out of game, where the player has no access.)
