PICKING THINGS UP

Now take a stroll around the courtyard, explore a little, and notice the

objects on the ground. One of these is a vial containing a red-colored liquid.

To pick up the vial, approach until you are close to the vial (the vial is visi-

ble at the bottom of the screen).

Move the cursor over the red vial and right-click (or press z). If you

are close enough to the vial, you can pick it up. See how the cursor becomes

the vial. If this does not pick up the vial, you are too far away. Move closer to

the vial until right-clicking picks it up. Note that you don’t have to hold the

mouse button down to move the vial. You can also “grab” items that are in a

hand or inventory box by moving the cursor over them and right-clicking.

PUTTING THINGS DOWN

Go ahead and right-click again to put the vial down. If you still have a hand

or a foot selected, you might make an attack-like movement. In that case,

left-click on the selected icon (the one with the white border) to deselect it.

If your cursor is near the ground (at the bottom of the View Window), right-

clicking drops the vial. You could also drop the vial into a hand or an inven-

tory box by moving it over the hand or inventory box and right-clicking. If

the hand or inventory box already contains an item, you “cursor-grab” that

item when you “cursor-drop” the item you are currently holding — a simul-

taneous exchange.

You can only put things down by right-clicking if no other option is selected

(no icon is bordered in white).

Now is a good time to practice. Right-click on the vial to pick it up. Move it

over an empty inventory box and right-click again to put it in the box.
