[edit] Basic statements
[edit] Statement separators
BSL accepts 2 statement separators : the semicolon (;) and the linebreak. The following pieces of code are equivalent :
dmsg("Statement 1"); dmsg("Statement 2");
and
dmsg("Statement 1")
dmsg("Statement 2")
[edit] Compound statements
Compound statements are groups of statements held together by a pair of 'braces' An example that uses the linebreak separator :
{
dmsg("Statement 1")
dmsg("Statement 2")
dmsg("Statement 3")
}
and one that uses the semicolon :
{dmsg("Statement 1"); dmsg("Statement 2"); dmsg("Statement 3");}
The row of statements between the braces is then treated as a single statement.
This is useful when you want to treat some (possibly big) piece of logic as a whole.
For example, you may want to execute a block of statements only if some condition is fulfilled.
STATEMENT1
STATEMENT2
if(CONDITION) {
STATEMENT3
STATEMENT4
}
STATEMENT5
(See "Special statements" below for details on if)
Or, you may want to completely separate some statements from the rest by making them into a function.
STATEMENT1
STATEMENT2
if(CONDITION) Function
STATEMENT5
...
func Function {
STATEMENT3
STATEMENT4
}
(See function declaration for details)
[edit] Special statements
[edit] sleep
The 'sleep' command tells the game to wait for a defined duration before executing the lines of code that follow.
Format: sleep duration:int
Eg: sleep 200
Note that sleep 60 is equivalent to 1 second.
[edit] if ... else ...
I'll take care of that one.
[edit] var and func
Those can also be viewed as special statements.
