Usage
It couldn't be easier to use izQuickRoom. When you first launch the application the dungeon level is set to the value you last used (1 if this is the first time you have used it) and a room is generated.
The exits from the room are displayed and a brief summary of the room is given at the top of the screen. In this case there is a single exit in a large trapezoidal room containing a monster and treasure. Clicking on the Mon button displays the monsters present, Exits the exits (direction and the type of door), Tre shows the treasure,Trap the traps if any and Feat sures any features that are present.
The + button generates a new room. The Up and Down buttons are used when there is to much information in the text box (usually when there are a lot of Features).
Clicking on the title bar brings up the menu which allows you to do the following:
- New Room
