Block Scripting

[ownerofbabylon]

say you have a NPC of a block. Here is what I want to know.

How would you make it so that a block had a certain identity (maybe like one block is called 1 or another one is 2) and an action only happens once they are drug on top of a certain area.

Say there are 4 different blocks and a specific one has to be dragged to a specific spot and then an action happens. How would you do this?

ez use callnpc or triggeraction

liquid explain the whole callnpc thing to me please
I don't get sh*t of it...

do like:

NPC Code:

---

if(x=sumthin&&y=sumtin){

script here;

}

---

but the blocks are unique. That would allow any block to work in any space and I have 4 spaces and 4 blocks and I need the right one for each area to be placed for this to work.

How would I do that exactly?

no, babylon d00d

here is an example
of how to open a certain door from something u touch
(not tested)
the 'switch'

NPC Code:

---

if (playertouchsme) {

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

 callnpc this.i,open1;

 }

}

---

then the door

NPC Code:

---

if (timeout) { showlocal; }

if (open1) { hidelocal; timeout=10; }

if (playerenters) { showlocal; }

---

easy =) callnpc basically sets a variable to true in another npc
trigger action is the same but its for x,y instead of calling by index
