Help
 

Hey,

Im looking for some help in GS1 scripting, I know most people dont want it on on there servers, but Ive heard from friends that it helps with GS2, so my problem is I am confused on how flags and strings work. For my little starting out project, I have a simple command:

// NPC made by TheFox
if (created) {

showcharacter;
setcharprop #3,head0.png;
setcharprop #C0,orange;
setcharprop #C1,white;
setcharprop #C2,blue;
setcharprop #C3,red;
setcharprop #C4,black;
setcharprop #2,shield1.gif;
shieldpower = 1;
dir = 2;
}
if (playertouchsme) {move 26.5,-4,10,0;

freezeplayer 10;

sleep 10;

}


//The NPC player moves to the specified spot in the level(Which is on top of a pillar) and there is a second npc that moves to another pillar. When both npcs are on top of the pillars I want a door to open, How should I accomplish this?

(If it has nothing to do with strings or flags can someone please still explain them)

Don't forget to change the npcx, npcy with the other NPC's position!
You'd then add this in to the other NPC
You'd just call the same action twice, for both statues^^

http://wiki.graal.us/GScript, scroll down to the bottom Fox and read the translation, learn GS2, Yes GS1 and GS2 are similar but it's like c and C++, Yes C++ will read C but there some weird things that happen when you use C in C++, some scripts wont behave right or unwanted results will happen, Learn GS2, and quit leaving GS1 scripts all over Niromia, keep in a test room. :]

GScript and GScript2 really aren't anything like C and C++. GScript2 is not an extension to old GScript like C++ was to C; GScript2 is a replacement language, and old GScript and GScript2 ideally shouldn't be mixed.

I was using a metaphor skyld and isnt GS1 derived from torque, C, and C# or something? I also figured that GS2 was an extension since it could still mostly read GS1, oh well, my bad.

Analogies are interperative, so neither of you are wrong or right. YAY!

Im going to continue learning gs1 since it works in editor and when the v.2 editor comes out(Omega ;D ) then Ill start learning gs2

You might never learn GS2 then!

lol, Napo is right Fox, I can't really teach until I have mostly learned GS2, MUD are giving problems, when I have some free time I teach you some GS2. Twinny's GS2 site might help you. http://twinny.vip.graal.net/

I didn't mean it that way :redface:.

I meant that we might never see a GS2 editor.

Well... there's always that too, but if you can understand the GS1 commands.rtf you should be ready to start with GS2.

On that note, the site is about to recieve a sexy overhaul which should inspire me to do actual work ^^.
