The * key used at the menu gives the game settings, which works in conjunction with SWATH when getting the game settings. It should be a separate format than the editors; in other words kept as is. some of us use that for our own usage.

Good to know. I've never used Swath. Is it possible to update Swath as well? Are they still developing it?

As more toggles are added to the editors, unless the sysop posts all the game settings on their web site how's a player to know? I've seen some have, Ice-9 does posts the # of days in turn bank.

I might like to see what a game with the interactive sub-prompt turned off feels like. I can't see that from the * menu. And while the default is off, most everyone turns it on now. Is that correct?

I use a script wrote by Prom to show info.

It does not do everything but it does enough that you get a fair idea of a game before joining it.

But Cruncher says scripts are bad

Another setting that is not seen by players is the death delay setting.
I'm sure there may be one or more others , so please keep adding to this list
if anyone knows one that might be helpful.

I was thinking about adding to the TW Manual area a section on the * menu. After each section or individual toggle setting a screen cap of the description from the edit menu. Then sysops and experienced players can add to the thread the pros and cons of the setting and possible strategies?

Does that sound like a worth while idea to familiarize new and returning players with the latest settings?

Mass hysteria!
