zu technischen + inhaltlichen Aspekten

Musikalische Erziehung. Entscheidungen, Auswirkungen, zeitliche Abläufe. Und satirische Simulationen.

Anm.: Wenn ich mich recht er innere, habe ich die Low-Tech-Version nach der Mid-Tech geschrieben. Dabei habe ich auch ein paar Details verfeinert. - Der im Text erwähnte Marsch war die Titelmusik zu Monty Python's Flying Circus, deswegen die ganzen Python-Referenzen. Alles Wissenswerte dazu gibt es auf der Wikipedia-Seite.

"It's a man's life at the Cardiff Rooms, Libya" by "H.A.L."

An alternative is a kind of room. The description of an alternative is usually "You have made your choice. Now that it is too late to go back, let's see whether you have chosen wisely. And there is a hostile stranger already approaching with a loaded raspberry! Now all you can do is throw yourself into the battle (-> go inside) and hope you have acquired enough courage!"

The cardiff is a room. The printed name is "The Cardiff Rooms, Libya". Understand "cardiff" or "rooms" or "libya" as the cardiff. The description is "You have to prepare for the big battle. Your task is to choose the music that will teach you the adequate mood for fighting.". The cohen is an alternative. The march is an alternative.

The cohen cd is a door. "In the north, you see a [printed name]." The printed name is "CD called 'Leonard Cohen - Greatest Hits'". Understand "Leonard" or "Cohen" or "Greatest" or "Hits" as the cohen cd. The description is "As the booklet says: 'The cover of Greatest Hits was taken in a mirror of a hotel room in Milan - I rarely ever look this good, or bad, depending on your politics.'"It is north of the cardiff. Through it is the cohen. The march cd is a door. "In the south, you see a [printed name]." The printed name is "CD called 'John Philip Sousa - Liberty Bell March'". Understand "John" or "Philip" or "Sousa" or "Liberty" or "Bell" or "March" as the march cd. The description is "The cover image mainly consists of a huge foot." It is south of the cardiff. Through it is the march.

Depression is inside from the cohen. The description is "You advance the enemy, but then you aren't any sure whether any of this has any meaning at all." After going to depression: say description of location; end the game in death. Vigour is inside from the march. The description is "You vigorously advance the enemy and drop a 16-ton-weight on him! Ha! Take that!" After going to vigour: say description of location; end the game in victory.

test depression with "x cohen / open it / enter it / in". test vigour with "x march / open it / enter it / in".

"It's a man's life at the Cardiff Rooms, Libya" by "H.A.L."

A cd is a kind of thing. A cd has some text called title. The title is usually "Oe3 top 20". The printed name of a cd is usually "cd called [title]".

The cohen is a cd. The title is "Leonard Cohen - Greatest hits".

The player is carrying the march and the cohen.

The gymnasion is a room. The soldier is a man in the gymnasion. The soldier has a number called mood.

Instead of giving something to the soldier:
	say "[The second noun] accepts gladly.";
	now the second noun is carrying the noun;
	increase the mood of the soldier by 1.
Instead of taking something had by the soldier:
	say "The soldier grudgingly returns [the noun] to you.";
	now the player carries the noun;
	decrease the mood of the soldier by 1.
Instead of removing something from the soldier:
	say "[The second noun] reluctantly returns [the noun] to you.";
	now the player carries the noun;
	decrease the mood of the soldier by 1.

Every turn:
	if the soldier has the cohen, decrease the mood of the soldier by 1;
	if the soldier has the march, increase the mood of the soldier by 1;
	if the mood of the soldier is greater than 12, change the mood of the soldier to 12;
	if the mood of the soldier is less than 0, change the mood of the soldier to 0.
	
when play begins:
	change the mood of the soldier to a random number between 5 and 8;
	change the left hand status line to "[mood of the soldier]";
	the attack occurs in 6 minutes from now;
	say "You are chosen to educate the soldier. Your responsibility is to make the right musical choice."

At the time when the attack occurs:
	say "There! A hostile stranger advances with a loaded raspberry!";
	If the mood of the soldier is less than 4:
		say "The soldier just sits there and doesn't do anything. The enemy beats you to pulp.";
		end the game in death;
	else if the mood of the soldier is less than 8:
		say "The soldier attacks the enemy half-heartedly. They kill each other.";
		end the game saying "You have survived, but your army doesn't look too good.";
	else:
		say "The soldier bravely advances the enemy and buries him under a sixteen-ton weight!";
		end the game in victory.
	
test depression with "i / x cohen / give cohen to soldier / z / z / z / z".
test vigour with "i / x march / give march to soldier / z / z / z / z".
test balance with "i / x cohen / x march / give cohen to soldier / give march to soldier / z / z".
test indetermination with "i / x cohen / give cohen to soldier / take cohen / give cohen to soldier / take cohen from soldier / z"

Die Idee des Pferdes

"Die Idee des Pferdes - basic implementation"

[Eben ist mir wieder eingefallen, daß man in Inform ja die Idee von etwas leibhaftig in der Welt herumlaufen lassen kann.]

An animal has a number called Widerrist. An animal has some text called Abmessung. The abmessung is usually "Die Widerristhoehe betraegt [widerrist] cm." An animal has some text called remark. The description of an animal is usually "[remark] [abmessung]".

A Pferd is a kind of animal. The widerrist is usually 160. The remark is usually "Ein vollendetes Pferd."

A Vollblut is a kind of pferd. The widerrist is usually 150. The remark is usually "Ein vollendetes Vollblutpferd, wenn auch ein bißchen klein fuer ein vollendetes Pferd. Und nervoes ist das Vieh, ich sage Ihnen..."

The paddock is a room. One pferd is in the paddock. One vollblut is in the paddock.

Butterblume is a pferd in the paddock. The widerrist is 168. The remark is "Ein Wesen, das Anteil an der Idee des Pferdes hat."

White Fury is a vollblut in the paddock. The widerrist is 155. The remark is "Nur ein Abglanz der Idee des Vollbluts, aber erzählen Sie ihm das bloß nicht!"

[Statistics:
Pferd - av. 160
Vollblut - 140 - 160 - 150
Warmblut - 160 - 170 - 165
Kaltblut - 160-180 - 170
Pony - bit more complicated, still have to look it up.
* In German Warmblut means a type of horse, so to say (medium-sized riding horse), in Englisch it appears to mean a special breed of medium-sized riding horses. Similar with Vollblut and Kaltblut.
* In German, Pony seems to be considered a kind of horse, in English, a Pony seems *not* to be a horse.
* What actually is a horse? The German Wikipedia disambiguation leads, apart from the metaphorcal meanings and such, to "Pferde oder Einhufer" (Equidae), "Wildpferd" (Equus ferus) and "Hauspferd" (Equus ferus caballus), the "Hauspferd" page gives as taxonomy:
* Familie Pferde - Equidae
** Gattung Pferde - Equus
*** Art Wildpferd - Equus ferus
**** Unterart Hauspferd - Equus ferus caballus
Nach dem "Pferde"-Artikel ist Equidae eine Familie mit nur einer Gattung, die - genaue Abgrenzung mal wieder umstritten - diese Arten umfaßt:
    * Wildpferd (Equus ferus)
    * Afrikanischer Esel (Equus asinus)
    * Asiatischer Esel (Equus hemionus)
    * Kiang (Equus kiang)
    * Steppenzebra (Equus quagga)
    * Bergzebra (Equus zebra)
    * Grevyzebra (Equus grevyi)
