Here's a very small example code:

    Bedroom is a room. "This is your bedroom."

    The bed is a scenery enterable supporter in the bedroom.

    When play begins:
        now the player is on the bed.

The result is:

    Bedroom (on the bed)
    This is your bedroom.

    Bedroom (on the bed)
    This is your bedroom.

It shows Bedroom description twice when I put the player on the bed.

Best answer

I finally found it.. the thing is that I cat't put it in "When play begins:" and I need to put it without the "now": (inform is so unforgiving T_T)

    Bedroom is a room. "This is your bedroom."

    The bed is a scenery enterable supporter in the bedroom.
    The player is on the bed.

you can also use `move the player to the bed`; you can't use `now` to move things, you need to use `move` (I think?)
