Now that i've got the opening plotscript done... More help is needed. Oookay...

What I'm trying to do is make a "Start Menu" of sorts, where you have the "new game" option do the obvious, and the "continue" option open the load screen. another obvious detail is that I want the "continue" to be unusable until a .sav file is present. Would the best way to do that be through scripting, or can i do all that in Custom.exe? if it's through scripting, what commands will i need to know to pull it off?

Use a tag to enable the load menu, and use the following script to set the tag:

Hmm, so you set variable i as any save slot in this script? k, so that'll take care of the continue, but what about the new game? Do I link that option to start the game?

The for loop loops over the values i := 1 to i := 4

Attach your real new game/introduction script to the "New game" menu option, and set 'start menu' as the new game script in Custom. Alternatively, if you have no introduction script, I guess you could have the "New game" option close the menu, doing nothing :)
