Mixing it up
Someone on the forums gave us this idea, it’s not actually something that was ever
thought about during Exorcists design and development process, but gives an excellent
example of how you can adapt Exorcist to control many situations.
The problem
Suppose that you want you haunt to appeal to a broad age group, you may want to
vary your routines to play a spooky mode for the under 7s and a scary mode for
teenagers….. Well here’s my solution, for simplicity Ill base it on a dead zone timer
routine.
