It depends what we go by. If we go by the fact that any flag and command could be a script then yes, he is asking for one. But if you go by the fact that he is asking for help in a whole script by wanting help with a part, then he isn't. I go by the latter. I'm not sure how the rules are meant, but misinterpretation is more the writer's fault than mine.

He's not "asking for help", he's asking for prepackaged NPC code. Again: How do you define the word 'script'?

He asked for help because he didn't know that type of command. in fatc i gave a universal example not thew exact thing he needed. I define a script as a functioning.....script......but if someone asks for how to use a function in a flag I don't consider it to be a script if I give a universal example

Could you give me a non-recursive definition?

an npc of any sort that has at least one flag and one function and does the desired effect. Also it can't be part of another one

What does it mean to "have" a flag? Also, does this definition exist outside of your head? It seems quite arbitrary.

If (flag) function; <- Bare minimum to be a script, and it must work, and not be part of another. I don't believe something should be a part and a whole at the same time. As for where I got it, it would be basic experience and what i've found some others to believe to be a script.
