Lol...you mean chopping a head off isn't a good sound? grin.
I just read thru most of the users guide, and it is really coming along.
I am also going to take a closer look at the door changing thing. I think that
will be a great improvement for the zombie house.
I just wanted to mention some stuff. I noticed in the first paragraph you got a
"hae" instead of a "have".
In the units you have some talk about teams, and mention 0, when int he teams
section you state that 0 is no longer an option.
I wanted to ask a brief question.
When it comes to teams, you got three so far. Will the teams eventually be able
to be listed as player or computer controlled? What if there is a need for more
then one "good" team or player team I guess is the better phrase. For instance,
half a dozen players might want to play a map, which I intend that board game
port. Or like a world combat with more then one country, or civilization.
Just some thoughts.

Hey Allan,
Thanks for the info on that bug. I think you mentioned in the past that
switching empty_tile to tile on the move skill actually fixes the problem.
That's what the getting started maps do in their move skill now and I
think it's fine.
I've put your notes about how to reproduce it in my list though so when
I get some time I can figure out exactly why it was happening.
Everyone, I just wanted to share a quick thought on the replace_terrain=
flag.
You could now have a skill called use door which would have this flag:
replace_terrain=open_door|closed_door,closed_door|open_door
This would allow you to use the skill to open and close doors and the
doors would always remain in their same tile.
It might be a good replacement for the zombie house doors, or the Tomb
Robber doors.
I know Austen also recently asked about a feature to support this kind
of scenario better.
I'm sure you guys will come up with some pretty creative ways to handle
new things with the flags.
Allan, just saw your note on the sound named activate. Gave me a good
laugh.
I think there's some old code that uses activate.wav anytime you
activate a menu item with space bar or enter.
I never got around to finding an activate sound I really liked.
