BSL talk:Functions

table design?

geyser, is this about what you wanted?

I have to do it over again, as I screwed a few things up...

How do you leave a box empty? Just put a space in?

Also, the types need listing...

The Mystery Man ^_^

Gumby

Dear sir. Either log in or sign, preferably both.

I'd prefer if signatures were listed in a tidier way.

(I mean function signatures, not people's sigs ^_^)

There is currently an example table in the sandbox.

I wouldn't give one-line examples in such a table...

Instead, I'd provide console-powered mini-tutorials.

For example, see what I put here: ai2_allpassive.

Such a mini-tut is more flexible than a table cell.

And we'll be basically building a tutorial as we go.

Where is chr_main_class and chr_set_class? Don't they belong on the BSL function page? EdT 22:14, 24 October 2008 (CEST)

This is a short table Gumby put together. It's nowhere near complete. The most current stuff is HERE --geyser 00:47, 25 October 2008 (CEST)

chr_teleport -1

chr_teleport [ai_name:string | script_id:int] flag_id:int - teleports a character to a flag - chr_teleport 0 105

Tried today it with -1, chr_teleport -1 400, which seems to give random results, but always retrieves a spawned character, I thought it would always retrieve the first character alive after Konoko but seems it isn't always the case. Have anyone had also a look a this? If it was a underflow probably it shouldn't retrieve characters most of the time. --Script 10k 12:55, 8 August 2012 (CEST)

chr_index vs script_id

What's the difference between chr_index and script_id? I think it's that that is messing the things.--Script 10k 16:43, 8 August 2012 (CEST)

If there's a difference, my guess would be that chr_index is the ONCC order* and script_id the spawn order**.

* oncc order: installed oncc files, shapeshift to see the numbers.

** spawn order: first spawned character is 0, second spawned character is 1, and so on. --paradox-01 17:24, 8 August 2012 (CEST)

I've been playing with chr_focus lately, I am sure that that char_index is the spawn order. Haven't checked the ONCC order although. --Script 10k 17:31, 8 August 2012 (CEST)

Uhm, I confused chr_index with class_index, sorry. (eg chr_set_class chr_index:int [class_name:string | class_index:int])

However I checked the ssg's list and it looks like that chr_index is used only be PC retail. *shrugs* --paradox-01 18:13, 8 August 2012 (CEST)

EdT can use it on Mac, not sure what version he have? Which one is EdT? --Script 10k 20:59, 9 August 2012 (CEST)

chr_kill_all_ai

chr_kill_all_ai (null) - kills all the AI, I couldn't get it work. F6 in developer mode works although.

But I've found a good alternative: ai2_kill(null);, kill them all too. By curiosity have anybody got chr_kill_all_ai work? --Script 10k 21:00, 9 August 2012 (CEST)
