| Description | In Tears of St. Lucia, in the walkway room (approximately -78.87 806.32 -37.25 -41.9 -37.4 0.0), the hint (narrator and text) about the hammer is given even when the hammer is not visible because it is in the next room behind locked doors. Perhaps the current hint is triggered on distance between player and hammer, and on players direction?
This behavior is present in at least TDM 2.12/64 #10584 (beta212-01), but likely also in TDM 2.11. It appears in the video below, said to play TDM 2.09.
Possible solutions:
* Require player to be much closer to the hammer, perhaps even require player to be on the scaffold on the same level as the hammer and looking at it before the hint is revealed.
* Maybe require player to read the note in the vestibule about the scaffold before the hint is even possible.
* Maybe withhold the hint until user has been near and looked at the hammer at least once or twice (so the player gets an opportunity to try pushing the hammer by their own without being told the solution). |
