I'm basically the programmer monkey/administrator on an educational project at North Dakota State, and we're using enCore as part of it. Our team thought it would be nice if room descriptions didn't show up on the left hand side so that users' attention would be drawn to the HTML side instead. Well, after commenting out the lines in #x:look that actually output the description, that problem is solved. But, I have another problem now - the right hand side no longer updates, even on login (it remains the connecting screen). Is it possible to add a manual "update" call? Or am I just messing with something I don't fully understand yet? :P Oh, and another question. I'm not sure where to start looking for this, and even just an object number would be enough, but I'm looking to add a sort of line delimiter between lines, in order to make the different events occuring clearer as to where they start and stop. The delimiter would be just a character, like ">" or "-". Your help is greatly appreciated!

However, we're not using the telnet login or even publishing the address. The students will only be using Encore, and we're trying to move most of the focus to the HTML side. That being said, uncommenting the lines didn't do anything. The only way I can get the HTML side to update at all is to click the look icon or the directional hyperlinks - actually typing look or typing the directions gets nowhere. Did I screw something up bigtime? 2) I've gone through and updated the look_self and announce methods to add a player:tell(">") at the end of them. I was hoping there was a less messy way, but this did the trick. Thanks for the suggestion. The help is greatly appreciated!

If you type '@delimiter on' then it's on. Typing '@delimiter off' toggles it back off.
