Main.sc¶
This is the main game script. It contains the main game class, all the global variables, and a number of useful procedures.
In addition to the above, it contains the icon instances for the icons in the control bar. It also contains the crucial default Messager and its findTalker method (used for mapping talker numbers to a Talker or Narrator instance).
