    ANGEL-to-MannDoor Conversions:

    As yet, I have not figured out how to make LORD/32 IGMs
    using the ANGEL Tool-kit.  Jay Hodges is working on this
    project for me.

---------------------------------------------------------------
Will be handled by myself, with assistance from Jay Hodges
and Michael Preslar.  There is NO timetable for any of these
32-bit programs:

LORD/32 versions of The Gateway, The L.O.R.D. Cavern, The
    Forest Outhouse, Outlands Tavern, RHPTest and Lordtype.

** The Changeling/32.         **) Doofus the Gnome/32.
** The Gem Trader/32.         **) Hiding in the Shadows/32.

**) Kiteria's Lord Bank/32.   (Scheduled for July/August 2006)

** Love Shack II/32.          **) The Nice Hag/32.
** The Pawn Shop/32.          **) Realm of Lore/32.

** Ruined Castle/32.          **) Turgeon's House/32.
** The Village Hut/32.        **) Violet's Cottage II/32.

**) Werewolf II/32
-------------------------------------------------------------


Long-Term development - Have not made outline of how these
events will work yet.
------------------------------------------------------------

1) Ruined Castle. Castle Library event.  Vampire Encounter event.
   Both would be inside castle, although I see no problem with
   Vampires being OUTSIDE the castle as well possibly.

   Castle Ghost wish:  Possibly allow player to wish harm to
   befall an enemy.  Will have to think about that and plan it out.
----------------------------------------------------------------

2) Turgeon's House - Next development cycle.

   * Fairies in Closet - Skill Use Point replacement wish.
     -- Will only work on the player's current Skill Class.
     -- As with other wishes, fairy has to be in a good mood
     or the wish will simply be ignored as they depart closet.

   * Random event 1:  Turgeon comes home, finds burglar in house.
     -- Have not decided if player gets killed or not.  But they
     will be beaten nearly to death and thrown out of igm.

   * Random event 2:  In kitchen, you get sick, throw up, lose
     some stats (HitPoints and Strength/Defense) after eating
     Food and/or drinking Beverage.

   * Random event 5: Players will have to risk LOSING Gold and
     Gems while they go room to room.  IGM should not always be
     a no-risk program where you never get hurt, or never risk
     death, but it just has worked out that way in the past.
