Gains, pluses,benefits and features:
- 'High' interactivity with real-time feedback
- integrated file editor where you can have 10 simultanously open files ,
each with it's own cursor position.. ;), block selected, syntax highlight
on off..
- edit up to 30 items , each with description long up to 640 chars - 8 rows
on default terminal, the short ang long room description
- you can interactively create, move, connect and modify the backbone of your
area without writing a char to the source code
- you can(must) later generate the code from the data you've entered
- you can then edit the generated filed within the integrated file editor
- you can select (and then cut/paste/copy) blocks within the file editor as
well within the item description window.
- you can select individual strings when in syntax highlight mode- VERY useful
when decomposing generated code back to the program..
- price - 0$... ;))
Lacks and limitations:
- un-modificable file structure - the newer files won't be compatible with
the older ones - may change in future versions..
- limitation to 640 chars in long descriptions
- bugs, lot of them still there, some of them are really meat-flies
- memory consumption , processing power consumption (MsDos app.)
- non-intuitive method of block selection - still buggy..
- hard-to-modify global and local variables structure
- almost everything.. ;(
