Don't worry about it now. I haven't got time to muck about with code snippets and I no longer have access to the old version, as I've updated to 42b. Once I've updated, I can't go back. Pity.
If it just falls through, then it's pretty pointless. You might as well just skip the set_sentence and do normal processing, albeit with extra if statements or setting flags or something.
Later. I'm only talking about how it used to work, not how I want it to work. I thought my game was working fine, but I've had to re-engineer some parts because it no longer works as it used to. Like I said, I might be mistaken. Maybe it never worked properly and I've only noticed it now because I'm testing, but I was so happy with the way it used to work that I was using it a lot to convert two-word input into multi-word input.
Too late. I've already overwritten it. But I can remember what it looked like. Basically something like:
: match "hit baddie" {
: if (preposition_is "" && noun2_is "" && is_carried "thing") {
: set_sentence "hit baddie with thing";
}
// Some other tests or statements
: if (preposition_is "with" && noun2_is "thing") {
// Do stuff
}
}
