    I can't get it to play ball with the BBS :/ I tried a couple of time I don't think it plays fossil...

    Interesting. I am currently running it on Mystic Island BBS which runs under DOSEMU and the BNU fossil driver.

    Not sure if this is what I originally intended but to make sure I loaded the right drop file I created a .cfg file for each node:

    [mm1.cfg example]
    WC3
    d:\temp1\DOOR.SYS
    Mystic Island BBS
    Mickey
    Frklic
    0
    TRUE
    [/mm1.cfg example]

    And I have the following .bat being called to load the game:
    [mystman.bat]
    cd \doors\mystman
    mystman mm%1.cfg
    [/mystman.bat]

    This was only the second game I attempted to make in Pascal while still in
    High School. It is playable but there is no concept of timing -- it just goes as fast as it can swap out the ansi characters so you have to spam the numpad keys.

    I really wish I would have sorted out how to work off arrow keys before I stopped development on it.

    Maybe one day I can kick the tires on it again from scratch and see if I can
    do a better job :)

    One of TLP's shortcomings is using RLFOSSIL aside from having given me a lot of
    grief early on, and then deciding it was going to work, it certainly doesn't work with everything.

    If I get the chance I will try it out and see if I can get it to work with RLFOSSIL. What OS are you using again?
