! Locations
!
! In this section we will define our locations. These are "Objects" to Inform
! and contain the following elements.
!
! - object name
!   The object name represents the variable or handle of the object.
! - short description
!   The short description is the description printed in bold before the
!   normal description.
! - initial description
!   The initial description is printed only once when the location is first
!   entered by the player.
! - normal description
!   The normal description is printed everytime the player enters the location.
! - directional properties (tells which direction player can move) (optional)
!   These include n_to, ne_to, e_to, up_to, in_to, etc. and are followed by
!   another location object name.
! - properties
!   Properties are functions that you can add to an object that help determine
!   events and actions.
! - attributes
!   Attributes are True/False values that help you remember certain states of
!   an object or event, such as whether the lights are on or not. The positive
!   value is represented as "light" and the negative would be "~light". There
!   are standard attributes used by Inform and you can add your own as well.
!
! Actually, there's more than this, but we'll add the complicated stuff later!

Object Sidewalk "Sidewalk"
    with  description
          "You are standing on the sidewalk in front of a house to the west.",
    w_to  Front_Porch,
    has   light;

!
! VERSION 2 - Adding more locations to your Inform program
!
! We're going to take one small step in this version. Let's add a bunch of
! locations so that the player can move around a little bit.
!
! Notice that in the Sidewalk Object definition we added a direction in the
! description "to the west" and we added the directional property "w_to"
! that leads to the "Front_Porch" location that we defined below.
!
! If you follow these examples you will see how locations are "connected"
! or "mapped" together with the directional properties. Feel free to change
! then around so that they connect in different ways.
!
! Q: In the "Front_Porch" definition, the description continues over two
!    lines. Is this okay?
!
! A: Inform allows you to extend statements over multiple lines as you
!    need. You may need to write code that extends over multiple lines
!    but mostly it will be descriptions as in "Front_Porch". You don't
!    need to add any extra characters to tell Inform that you've jumped
!    to the next line either...Inform will figure that out when it compiles.
