Title: Wall confusion
Post by: ringworm24 on July 22, 2020, 11:40:43 am

Hi ,

I have built a wall 3 of the four sides look good. But the last side seems to have gone wrong , I am not sure whats wrong with it.

D= draw bride I only expected 'O' on the corners and by the draw bridge , I have no idea why  :-[ I have 'O's else where?

in looks like this

O=ODDDOO==========OOO===O

When it should be

O=ODDDO================O

Not sure if I am making sense. I have no idea how to fix it as I have no idea why its gone werid?

Many thanks

Could some of those 'O's be trees? Try using 'k' (look) mode to display what they are.

I'm not sure which symbols you're using. Could the O's be walls that were suspended during construction?

Press s. Something caused builders to suspend the work. Can press s, in their joblist, also.

O with foggy background is also a nonhidden engraving in artless/ascii play.
