Newbie in Exult Studio

[Saimazoom]

Hi all!

I'm a long-time author of IF games and a longer-time fan of the Ultima series. I plan to make a free small adventure using the Exult studio engine and after reading some of the documents available I've a few questions.

* I've been able to create a new map but well... is really empty. How can I translate the logic behind monsters and objects/machines to a new game?.
* It is possible to reuse some of the assets+logic from the original files?.
* It is possible to change the shape of the avatar?.
* I remembered that in Serpent Isle it was possible to use a telescope to see different locations. How can I do this in USECODE?

The idea behind this questions is to find a way of having a basic-library and build the game on top of that.

Thanks for your great work.
