Do you want to learn how to script?

I would rather see a guide use proper techniques the whole way through. Putting commands and events outside of event blocks is just lazy and careless. I see how you're structuring it so the begining is easy to follow for everyone, but I believe some people will think that that is an acceptable format.

The overall quality of the document looks nice though. You seem to have put some real effort into it, good job. I still hate PDFs though

Yeah, something like 'This shouldn't be done but it doesn't matter because you're just learning for now' should be added.

Ditto for sleeps within loops.

Ya, the idea is start from beginning not forgetting anything.. So how much we will learning, we learn new things to replace the old commands we used, so until the end we will be using the right way.

Thats why we start with a simple "message". Thats never good to use directly in the script like we did. But we cant start with too much information or the reader will give up to read it. I tryed to make like I like to learn, with alot of examples and many texts to explain each thing.

That doesn't justify a structure like this:

NPC Code:

---

if(timeout){

}

timeout=blah;

---

I made that to show who is reading that he/she needs to set the timeout value all the time again. Because when the script is called by timeout it back to 0. I could do "created||timeout" and set the timeout value at the end, or make any other way this. But I think this way is better to understand. Be sure he/she will understand and until the end will have a good knowledge.
Anyway I attached a file that explain that better to you.

have a nice day

I think it fosters bad habits. It essentially condones an approach that should by no means be utilised. Is that ever a good thing to do?

Um, the highlighted text has absolutely no relevance to what we're discussing. Leave the sass to the experts, dawg.

Thanks

Amon-Ra, I see no problem with posting errors here unless you're afraid of criticism. This thread should exist to foster the growth and development of your document, not simply to praise you.

That aside, to those who gave advice to Googi: //#CLIENTSIDE should by no means be the end-all solution to make offline scripts work online. For example, if you want to change someone's level, that will not solve it. In other cases, making everything clientside can leave your scripts vulnerable to trainer usage and cheating.

This should be stickied, I WILL be refering back to this in the future.
