2637 A trigger marker is an object that inserts an invisible force (a mark) into a
2638 player stepping on it WHEN TRIGGERED. This force does nothing except containing a
2639 &lt;key string&gt; which can be discovered by detectors or inventory
2640 checkers. It is also possible to use markers for removing marks again.
2641 <br><br>
2642 Note that the player has no possibility to "see" his own marks,
2643 except by the effect that they cause on the maps. ]]>

2646 Markers hold real cool possibilities for map-making. I encourage
2647 you to use them frequently. However there is one negative point
2648 about markers: Players don't "see" what's going on with them. It is
2649 your task, as map-creator, to make sure the player is always well
2650 informed and never confused.
2651 <br><br>
2652 Please avoid infinite markers when they aren't needed. They're
2653 using a little space in the player file after all, so if there
2654 is no real purpose, set an expire time. ]]>

4822 checkers. It is also possible to use markers for removing marks again.

4828 Markers hold real cool possibilities for map-making. I encourage
4829 you to use them frequently. However there is one negative point
4830 about markers: Players don't "see" what's going on with them. It is
4831 your task, as map-creator, to make sure the player is always well
4832 informed and never confused.
4833 <br><br>
