' comment
Comment. These lines will be ignored by Quest, and can appear inside or outside "define" blocks. You could use comments to write reminders to yourself, eg:
' To do: Dungeon room, ending text
Or you could use it to temporarily remove a line, or several lines, of script, without having to delete and retype it - just put an apostrophe ' at the beginning of the lines you temporarily want Quest to ignore.
You can also place a comment after any line of Quest code - Quest will ignore everything after an apostrophe that isn't within a parameter. For example:
msg <It's a lovely day.> ' Prints a lovely description
