Wasn't the Graal Messenger a total different language from graal script?

I'm not a good scripter . Storm remade my entire toy spaceship (which is now in the GC Prize Box on Classic as "Space Storm") from scratch, lmao, and it had like 3 less bugs and like 1000 less lines... lmao. Actually... I think I took it out of the closet and dusted off 1000 lines of my own before I gave up on it again, and then showed it to Storm. That was a pretty good thinking/learning script for me. So is my tailor script that I made, that works alright, but is unnecessarily big such as the toy spaceship was. It was a good learning script though. It taught me like what stuff to do and not to do in making a menu (like a weapons list, for instance). My #1 problem in scripting is that I can't do onwall checks for crap. My other problem is that I haven't grasped how to use arrays, which is probably because it isn't the kind of thing I use in every script I make. It's a shame someone can mention Kat and Malinko, though. Especially Kat. Kat isn't by any means a great scripter. He'll reply whining about me, I swear he will.

Arrays are simple...
To set an array (variable);
NPC Code:

setarray arrayname,length; // or
arrayname = {12,18,25,...};


To access them
NPC Code:

arrayname[index] // ie.
arrayname[0] = 5;


Indexes start with 0, so
NPC Code:

this.test = {5,10,15,29};
say2 I-1: #v(this.test[1]) | I-0: #v(this.test[0]);


It would show a sign that looks like;
I-1: 10 | I-0: 5

Understand somewhat?

You just told me what you wanted and I made it... I'd made a similar thing (with a remote control car) before, so I already knew how it was gonna work, although i did change pretty much all the physical models. Looking at it, it was quite an amibitious script for your scripting ability at the time, so it's good that you learnt from it. You much better now than you were then.

I wouldn't really put yourself down about the arrays, as once you grasp the concept, you wonder why you ever thought it was difficult. Onwall checking is just somthing that you can't really teach...

lmao, I know... I've made an awesome script that checked for walls... Well, to model it. It showpolyed areas in each direction of the player until it hit the wall. I just couldn't remember what the hell I did, when I wanted to make an independent movement system for myself... even looking at the script.

Get over it, kiddo. If your defense is that you've never put anything remarkable in the public eye then, check it out, my statement was perfectly accurate. Maybe you do have some hidden skillz that you use when nobody's looking, but then Wan is still wrong to put you in the list. As far as you've shown, you're nothing special.

I am defeinitly nowhere near the best list, especially since I am out of practice on npc scripting, and there a quite a few serverside npc commands that I do not understand. (Like how come string/flag setting with set flagname or setstring string,text does not work anymore?)

But once about two years ago I did make a car npc controlled with server strings, and one driver could give other players 'rides' in the car anywhere on the server, I did it with serverstrings and it was not too laggy even with a few passengers. It was on old Sanstrata, those were fun times. (except when it was being hacked)!

But anyone else who has been programming for more than 20 years please raise your hand ... I'm curious to see how many there are

I remembered that. It's when none-p2p servers couldnt use lights, ganis, or npc servers. Or something of the sort.

awww *shucks*. The more I look at that so-called word (shucks), the more I get confused.
Shadow Knight wasn't too bad either. We worked together a fair bit. He did alot for G2k1 as well I think.

Maybe Lance or Stefan.
When I think about things like this, I tend to think about who has made the most efficient stuff. So far, the already mentioned scripters have not done much to hold their title, then again, most of the scripters suck anyways.
