Custom prop weirdness

[MisterX]

Thanks Brian,

like i did say, it works in the message
Not in the script... i didn't mention i had a global "bot" already...

engine confusion which shouldn't happen... TAOO's semantic symbiosic (a
sub-subject in dynamic scripting) is now on the freeze pending further
testing! 

cheers
Xavier
