If I should be asking this somewhere else > please let me know. The answer to your first question is 'yes' - oasis can be used to build entire areas online. That's what Oasis does, although you do have to install it. The stock circle code does not have Oasis installed, and the only building documentation that comes with it is 'building.doc' - which of course only talks about offline building, since it's primarily concerned with file formats. Oasis itself is pretty easy to use, it's got a menu interface and any monkey worth his peanuts should be able to figure it out in half the time it takes to develop simple tool-using behaviors. So, the answer to your second question (where should i be asking) is that you should not be asking, you should be looking for any sorts of oasis resources - like the html and doc files included in the oasis patches, etc. Oasis can be found under the 'olc' directory on the ftp site.

It's allude. allude = hints at, or makes some indirect reference to elude = escape or avoid -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
