Button 9 for TG2?

[RichTwo]

I sure miss the good old days - why isn't there a button 9 for Terragen 2?

Programming an advanced AI like that takes a lot of time and effort. Why do you think you never saw cloud layers in TG Classic? So that's why we haven't done it in TG2 yet, because we wanted to have cloud layers...

I think it would be something like this, but in whatever language you're using to write TG2:
First time pressed: "Hello, Button 9 at your service."
Second time: "I don't really do anything.
Third: "Stop it!"
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 times select a random phrase such as "Ouch!" or "Stop pressing me!"
10th time say "I QUIT!!!" or similar phrase selected randomly
<don't do anything for the next 35 minutes, only 10 presses at a time>
From then on, first time: "Why do you keep bothering me?!"
Second time: "Get outta here!"
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9: select another random phrase
10: "I'm outta here!" or another similar phrase selected at random
Eventually, after 40 times (total) say (now this is up to you, but I'm suggesting:) "All right, I give up. The cake is a lie." Repeat every 40 presses.

Guys , i vaguely think i know what you mean , but searching for "Button 9" didn't help much.
Can you please precisely say or give a link about this ?

@Kadri
In Terragen Classic, in the Animation/Script Settings window (accessed from the Rendering Control window), there's this button that's a little comic relief. You click it once and it says "Hello, Button 9 at your service." The next few times, it insists it doesn't do anything. After several more times (saying things like Ouch!) it quits working for a while. Then it starts working, and it says more of the same. It's pretty fun.

Thanks , TheBlackHole  

It does remember me the War Craft 2(?) audio settings in old DOS days .
When you clicked a little while , it did say in the end "It doesn't get any better then this!"
I was quite shocked and amused

When you get the chance to do it, please make it so that it can do the following:

First click: "In the beginning there was nothing ..." scrolling across the screen then a question "Do you want a mountain?" with yes / no buttons.

Click on "yes" button and a mountain sprung up.

And another question: Do you want a river? with yes / no buttons.

Click on "yes" button and a river magically appears.

And another question appears: Do you want clouds? with yes / no buttons.

Click on "yes" button and clouds came rushing from everywhere.

And another questio: What time of day? with a box where users can key in the hour.

Key in "12:00" and the sun is at high noon shining down.

And another question: Want to look up or look down? with up / down buttons.

Click on "up" button and the user is somewhere near the bottom looking up, and vice-versa.

This way you would make we users really feel like God. So we too can rest on the Seventh Day.

Thank you !
