Description:
- Fiction Factory is a multi-user storytelling game. One user would
start a story, or choose from the pre-started stories, and the rest add
to the story as they see fit. There's no telling where the story
will end!
- This game features ANSI/RIP support, password protected stories, Sysop-configurable
anonymous entries, and Sysop editing options.
- When you make a BBS menu entry for this game, make a double entry. One is for the regular users, and one is for the Sysop. On a Maximus system, your MENUS.CTL file should have something resembling the following entries:
- Xtern_DOS FF.cmd_%k
<Sysop "Fiction Factory"
Xtern_DOS FFsys.cmd_%k =Sysop "Fiction Factory"
- The FF.CMD (batch) file is the one that comes with the distribution
package, while the FFSYS.CMD file is a copy of FF.CMD, but with the /EDIT
switch added to the FICTFACT.EXE command line.
- What does this do? It allows the Sysop access to story renaming
and deletion functions, while regular users just get the regular door.
