mob

Login()
timer()
usr.name = input("What is your name?")as text
usr.icon_state = input("What is your gender?")in list("Male","Female")
usr = text("Some story line here")
usr = text("some more here")
usr = text("more here:)")
world << "[usr] has logged in"
usr << "Welcome [usr] to Fallout"
view = 6
return ..()

the error is on the line that has view = 6 it says "undefined var". ?? sorry this has confused me.

also could someone help me make text boxes appear at the start containing just some story line? u can see where ive tryed to do that :)

Put your "view = 6" like this:

world
    view = 6

There are several ways you could create a popup. The easiest is the alert box. You could also use the browse proc to create an html popup with all the power of the Internet Explorer web browser. Another option is to use my MapText or sd_Text libraries to create a popup directly in the map screen, but I doubt that is what you are looking for.

It is probably best to send the story to the browser or the normal text area. I find alert boxes extremely annoying and very ugly.

He is on about the alert box, I can tell now. But I agree with Shadowdarke here.

The story should be sent straight to the browser as it looks alot nicer there than it would in an Alert()
