News Sign
 

ok once more ....

i have made a lame script :

// NPC made by #Louis (Lame Script)

message News;

if (playerchats&&strequals(#g,guildname)) {

message #n: #c;}

# 1 : first my script is lame ok ....

#2 : i dunno how to use tokenize

So how can i display the chat message in the sign ?

( not in a message over the sign )

//NPC Modified by Merlin (WIZAD)
if (playerenters) {message News;
}
if (playerchats&&strequals(#g,guildname)) {
setstring server.news,#c;
}
if (playertouchsme) {
message #s(server.news);
}

NPC Code:

---

// NPC made by Lady Midnight

if (created) {

  this.maxlinelength=32;

  this.lettersusedonline=0;

}

if (playerchats&&strequals(#g,guild)&&startswith(setn  ews,#c)) {

  tokenize #c;

  for (i=1;i<tokenscount;i++) setstring server.news,#t(i);

}

if (playertouchsme) {

  setstring player.readingpage,0;

  setstring sign.readstring,;

  tokenize #s(server.news);

  this.lettersusedonline=0;

  for (this.i=0;this.i<tokenscount;this.i++) {

    this.lettersusedonline+=strlen(#t(this.i))+1;

    if (this.lettersusedonline>this.maxlinelength) {

      setstring sign.readstring,#s(sign.readstring)" "#t(this.i);

      this.lettersusedonline=0+strlen(#t(this.i));

    }

    else if (this.i==0) setstring sign.readstring,"#t(this.i);

    else setstring sign.readstring,#s(sign.readstring) #t(this.i);

  }

  tokenize #s(sign.readstring);

  setstring sign.pages,#v(int((tokenscount-1)/3));

  say2 #t(strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))*3)

     #b#t(strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))*3+1)

     #b#t(strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))*3+2);

}

if (playerendsreading) {

  setstring player.readingpage,#v(strtofloat(#s(player.reading  page))+1);

  if (strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))<=strtofloat(#s  (sign.pages))) {

    say2 #t(strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))*3)

       #b#t(strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))*3+1)

       #b#t(strtofloat(#s(player.readingpage))*3+2);

  }

}

Is the whole script needed if you want to display an actual sign...

Why do you need such huge complex scripts if one as simple as mine should work? :(

Oh duh i forgot about the breaks :(

Because my huge complex script doesn't display it as chat.

wwwwwooow
 

lol lady midnight

i will test it online but if i say : setnews bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh

did it break lign ?

Re: wwwwwooow
 

Yes it will then automattically add line breaks to what you said, just test it if you're wondering.

you rules !

thks =D

what if you say blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbl ehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh blehblehblehblehblehblehblehbleh, then you'd be scrwed

Heh, Lady Midnight. How long did it take you to learn all this??

Yes it does screw up if you use a word of more then 32 letters, I've never got to build in a security for that.
No idea, I don't usually keep track of such things.

God, you know like everything and answer everyones post. Jeeze. SOrry I was just wondering if you have been working on graal script since version .0001 or somthing or if you started at like 1.28 and just got good fast.

Hey LM, I made something really similar to that for my auction stage! =)

I made a sign wear auctioneers could post what is being auctioned for everyone to read. I like it because you can use the image message code and post images like the front picture of a bomy so you could put something like

NPC Code:

---

Bomy Naifets 0 for auction: <pic>

Initial Bid: 1500 gralat

---

I can't figure the 32 character thing out either but if anyone is using a 32 character word than they aren't supposed to be posting there lol.

Well I did start in 1.40... :rolleyes:

I started in 1.41...

Lady Midnight, can I use your script, or at least the theory of your script, for a Book NPC? Oh by the way, you are an awesome scripter. I thought I had a good mind for programming languages (although I never really was great at Graalscript). Do you program proffessionally?

Probably she's learning npc scripting while we're spending time online on servers....
and she probably have a lot of free time :D
