Can't Dig In It? #10

Closed scott-martinez closed 9 years ago

scott-martinez commented 9 years ago

Is using the latest compile from git, try this:

Object lengthofrope "rope" bottomofpit with name 'rope', description "It is the rope you climbed down on, now shorter after having been chopped in two.";

dig in rope You can't see any such thing.

dig rope Digging would achieve nothing here.

Shouldn't these both work?

FYI: My only reason for trying odd commands like this is just to look for bugs. I try different commands from http://pr-if.org/doc/play-if-card/ in various ways and look for things.

Oh, I very much appreciate you trying odd commands to see if the library breaks. I would have been rather embarrassed to see that "hears" bug in an official release. As you can see in the commit, several other verbs were similarly wrong.

It looks like this has been the default response all along. I fixed it and some similar problems with JUMP. See https://github.com/DavidGriffith/inform6lib/commit/63c6ae69c917ae9d9203d49ff6d79894ab415c15
