 +Media objects can contain other media files than pictures (for example a sound file) but these have currently no effect with characters. If you associate a sound media with a character in the hope that the sound will play every time you display the character this will not (yet?) work.

-==== Commands ====+===== Commands =====
  
 Characters and items can have associated commands. Commands provide a way for the player to interact with the virtual world. For example, you might have a command to talk to a character. Or a command to open a box or an envelope. Or a command to have a character ride a bicycle or a horse. You can also attach script to a command. When the player chooses to perform the command, the script executes. This gives you the opportunity to make changes as a result of the command. For example, if the player chooses to "take" a coin, you can move the coin to the player's inventory. Or if the player chooses to have a character ride the bicycle, you can move the character and bike to a different zone. Characters and items can have associated commands.
