Using diverts in lists? #250

Open ladyisidore opened 7 years ago

ladyisidore commented 7 years ago

Is it possible to use diverts as list values? As in:

LIST rooms = -> building.room_a, -> building.room_b

I'm trying to build a world-model in ink that's like, but not 100% identical to, a parser world-model. I figured out how to keep track of inventory and other things, but the actual buildings-rooms-outside bit is escaping me, but I think if I could use diverts as list values, I could figure it out.

You can't, but you could store list values and then convert them via a function that takes a value and return a divert?

Oh, that'll work! Thank you

Np! (This is basically how we did tunnels in Sorcery before we had proper tunnels in the language. )
