 AT> I'm looking to solve these minor Mystic issues:

I can help with a few. I might be able to help with all of them, except it's
late and I'm tired.  =)  So I'll do what I can with what I remember.

 AT> 4) Does anyone have their message reader prompt set up to take #s for
 AT> message jumping? I mean, so a user can just type 60 and it jumps to
 AT> message number 60 without having to first press letter J for Jump? If
 AT> so, please hook me up. That is one feature I miss from Renegade.

I believe this works at any time when reading if you have lightbar off for
messages. I could be wrong, and don't think I've used it often.

 AT> 7) I want to run LORD on my BBS, but I don't know how the
 AT>    dropfile system works with Mystic. This is my imagination at work,
 AT> let me know if I'm right or wrong:

Yeah, each dropfile(s) is created in Mystic's own numbered temp directory. So
you'd set LORD to look in x:\mystic\temp1 for node 1, \temp2, etc.

Can't remember what \temp0 is, I believe that's for local node.

 AT>    I have 10 nodes available at the moment. Can all 10 play lord at the
 AT> same time? Will Mystic create more temp directories as needed?

Yep! As long as you have the command line in Mystic setup correctly. If I
remember right, mine is c:\doors\lord\start.bat %3. Mystic will parse the MCI
code correctly and create the necessary temp directory to accomodate LORD or
any door game as long as the game is set to look in a temp directory.
