I don't understand how to add/change terrain and objects, let alone query
them. Could someone pelase help me with this, since the AW SDK site does a
pretty bad job of explaining.

adding objects is easy :-0 all you have to do is learn how to build them :-)
terrain is harder, since you have to be CT, and then, you can only change it
(unless you have Demeter)

Adding Objects....

long add_object(long iObNum, long x, long y, long z, long yaw, long tilt,
long roll, char *description, char *action, long owner)
{
aw_int_set(AW_OBJECT_X, x);
aw_int_set(AW_OBJECT_Y, y);
aw_int_set(AW_OBJECT_Z, z);
aw_int_set(AW_OBJECT_YAW, yaw);
aw_int_set(AW_OBJECT_TILT, tilt);
aw_int_set(AW_OBJECT_ROLL, roll);
aw_string_set(AW_OBJECT_DESCRIPTION, description);
aw_string_set(AW_OBJECT_ACTION, action);
return aw_object_add;
}

join the club, terrain is about the best kept secrets of AW. The manual is
so totally inadequate you are better off not reading it, and go by trial
and error. Dont try to expect anything from this newsgroup, because those
that 'are in the know' hate to share their 'unique' knowledge

It would of course help to include char *objectmodel as well :)

In case you couldn't tell by the function name, aw_int_set takes an int value, not a long. You didn't use all of the variables passed to the function, and you didn't include the name of the object. When you call a C function that has no parameters, you must still include the brackets (eg. return aw_object_add();)
