For what its worth, params start at 0

Your npc script:
params[0] = buymenu1
params[1] = 1000
params[2] = nameyouhad?

Also, you can do:
onActionClientside (cmd, price, itemname)
and reference the parameters passed from serverside that way.

Ex: echo(price);

Ahh, thanks for the reply anyways :).

Would anyone be able to explain tokenizing to me/link me to anything on it please?

obj.tokenize([delimiters]) - splits the string into an array wherever the delimiters occur

Example:
Player chats: "This is an example"

PHP Code:


		
			
player.chat.tokenize(" "); //uses spaces as separator

Can access tokens like this:
tokenscount (will yield 4)
tokens[0] will reference the first token (the word "this").
Similarly,
tokens[2] will reference the word "an".

ps: if its only for spaces, you could also just do player.chat.tokenize()

Thanks :), would you use tokenizeing as well when doing such scripts as

PHP Code:


		
			
if (player.chat.starts("text")){ 
a = player.chat.substring;
}

?
Also, for the delimiters, you would basically be able to put for example a word such as "idigzy" and wherever that word occurs it splits it :o?

Your example isn't a proper use of substring ( string.substring(index[,length]) ) , but, essentially, yes, you could tokenize the player's chat if a condition is met. I'll let someone else fill you in on substring as I know how it works (sometimes), but am not familiar enough to verse you on its uses...sorry...

random tailor example for tokenize [better ways to do this...example for simplicity sake..]:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (player.chat.starts("/set ")){ //player says "/set shoes"
  player.chat.tokenize(); //as previously mentioned, SPACES become separators
  if (tokens[1] == "shoes"){
    player.colors[2] = tokens[2];
    //OR...
    //player.colors[2] = player.chat.substring(10,-1); // not 100% sure on this??
  }
}

yeah, you get the concept....
some common delimiters: are , (commas), spaces . (periods) , and so on...

there is a tokenize2 but I didn't want to include it.
You can scripthelp it.

Is there anything you are trying to do in specific, there might be a better approach?

@Torankusu Thanks for all the help on that :). I'm not really trying to do anything in particular at the moment, I just thought I'd play around with it since I may use it in the future.

PHP Code:


		
			
str.substring(start[,length]) - extracts a substring out of str

the second parameter is how long you want to grab for the substring. -1 for the length will go to the end of the string.

Also

PHP Code:


		
			
function ChatBar.onAction()

is the same as

PHP Code:


		
			
function onPlayerChats()

From what I understand it's recommended to use ChatBar. I've even had issues with playerchats here and there, but not with chatbar. ChatBar is the Gui default where you type in the text.

and

PHP Code:


		
			
ChatBar.text

is the same as

PHP Code:


		
			
player.chat

when using the ChatBar function instead.

so:

PHP Code:


		
			
function ChatBar.onAction() {
  if (ChatBar.substring(0, 4) == "/set") { //honestly i cant remember if it starts at 0 or 1, I believe its 0. If not, you'd do 1, 4
    temp.tokens = ChatBar.text.tokenize(); //as previously mentioned, SPACES become separators
  if (tokens[1] == "shoes"){
    player.colors[2] = tokens[2];
  }
}
// i believe you could dynamically set it with substrings, but since it's already in tokens, it's better to just use the tokens.

Would anyone be able to link me to some guides on databases/some good examples :)?

The Graal wiki has a good page on the use of SQLite in GScript.

I wouldn't really call it a good page. A lot of the explanation is not very clear and I didn't have a very good understanding of SQLite when I wrote it.

My advice would probably be to learn SQL/SQLite outside of Graal first. Using it in Graal will then be pretty easy.

now if there isnt some kind of error then ill restart scripting and learn it all from the beginning :p
