item-links bugs

[adam-belda]

I was planning to create a game using QuestJS. I was using the item-links library because I felt that convenient linking of items and characters is essential nowadays, especially since the side panel is located in a completely different place from the main flow of the story.

Unfortunately, the library is quite buggy. It doesn’t support dictionaries ({ name, action, style }) for verbs, it displays room exits incorrectly (it only shows the exits and removes all the other text from that line), and it doesn’t properly deactivate links that are no longer in scope. For example, if I click on an item and select the "look" command, the link remains active even after I leave the room.

Is there a newer version of this library available? I noticed, for example, that the game Internal Audit by XelX doesn’t seem to have these problems. If not, is there any chance the library could be updated and these issues fixed, or has the project been abandoned?

By the way, I also found another bug in the game core that seems easy to fix: findCmd("Eat").objects[0].special has a value of 'text', whereas it should be 'ignore'.

I use QuestJS 1.4 and the latest version of Chrome.
