Open the alignment quests text blocks, and add classok variables to them.

you add a new part. there may be a new part already. goto the block you are working on and click next. check to see if the textblock number stays the same and the part number increases. if so, keep hitting next until you get to the last part. that is where you would most likely want to add your new class commands. since textblocks are limited to 2000 characters that's where the "parts" come in. the first part is part 0, second is part 1, and so fourth. they are all just an extension of the other. even though there may be commands on "part 1" they are still executed with part 0. you'll notice with some long dialogs the part is split in mid sentance, but when the text comes out you can't even tell visually. just use the insert button on the textblock editor to add new textblocks and parts.



also note, if you add new textblocks (or parts) you must copy the textblock file into your bbs directory (if you dont edit your bbs directory directly). when the update file runs through your board will crash if you don't.
