Another bug I've noticed.

'Noticed' isn't quite the right word: run into at 60 mph is more like it.

Now that there are a thousand events you cancel a T.O. by repeating the wording and have it trigger event 1000 rather than event 500, right?

Fine 'n dandy -- but the program won't let you enter '1000' for the event effect number.

...well, make that a minor bug...even a 'design feature.'

It seems that repeating the T.0. wording and pointing to event 999 will get rid of the T.O. as well. In fact, I suspect pointing to any undefined event would get rid of it...maybe even any event at all.

Yes, it is a feature. See the manual, 17.8.6, Theater Options, where it is documented...[;)]

Okay. What got me charging off was when I saw that all my old T.O.'s that pointed at event 500 to cancel themselves now pointed at event 1000 -- and I couldn't type in event 1000. The future looked bleak there for a while.

No worries. It works either way. Seeing that events are pointing to event 1000, lets you know that the scenario was run through the TOAW III conversion process.
