Status : Online		Alright, after a dream sequence in a meadow, my character is moved to a cottage. I've been having some trouble getting some things to work, especially an "if" phrase. Basic code I was trying to use was:


The Cottage is a room. A bed is in the cottage.

If player is in the Cottage for the first time:
     say "You wake up in a strange room."
     Player is in the bed.


That told me that the words "if the player is in the cottage for the first time" didn't work as a phrase, so I changed it to this:


The Cottage is a room. "[if player is in the cottage for the first time] You wake up in a strange room." A bed is in the cottage.


That worked for me, but I still want the character to be in the bed the first time he enters the cottage (because he is moved there after a dream scene.) Is there any way to do this?

Status : Online		This is simple.

The Cottage is a room. A bed is in the cottage.

If player is in the Cottage for the first time:
    say "You wake up in a strange room.";
    now Player is in the bed.;

copy exactly.
