Is this character known to the player
This is a selection-only property of Characters.
This property should be set for any character that the player's character would be expected to know, or can be set during the game if the player discovers their name..
If the player uses the "kiss %character%" command on an object that does NOT have this selected, then ADRIFT will not recognise the name and they will get the following failure message:
> kiss marcia |
If the character has this property, then the "kiss %character%" general command will respond as follows:
> kiss marcia |
To actually allow the player to kiss a character you will need to override the "Kiss character" general task with a specific task for that character which describes the effects of kissing her.
The value of this property can be accessed (as the value 0 or 1), or used to filter a group, with the %character%.Known function
