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)

if (playertouchsme) {
move 26.5,-4,10,0;
freezeplayer 10;
sleep 10;
TRIGGERACTION npcx, npcy, foundPOSITION,;
}

Don't forget to change the npcx, npcy with the other NPC's position!
You'd then add this in to the other NPC

if (created){
  setshape 1, 32, 32;
}
if (actionfoundPOSITION){
  this.hasfound++;
  if (this.hasfound >= 2){
    hide;
  }
}

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.

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 .

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.
