Adjusting a script.

[Stunseed]

Well, it's time for a new script, I am having trouble remembering how to modify a few things. It is a real base Wizard hunting script for SF, for the EN's Skull Temple.

Starts where you fall in

My first concern is the Gate. I'm not an AFK'er, and I perfer the gold ring method. Secondly, this is set up for a runestaff user, which I later decided my Wizard was going to stay sword/board. This is the second part of a script, which I plan on hooking into your default travel script to the carving. Any help would be much appreciated.

- put: sends a line to the game as if you had typed it.
- match: syntax is MATCH (label) (gameline).
- matchwait: waits until one of the "(gameline)" lines is seen, and jumps to whatever label that "match" command told it to.
- pause: pauses for 1 second, or however many you tell it to.
- counter set: set the `%c' variable.
- counter add/subtract: add or subtract from the `%c' variable.
- goto: "goto" a label.

To debug a script, just go line-by-line thinking to yourself what it's going to do when it executes...

You start the script
-------------
%s (save variable): empty, or whatever was last saved
%c (counter variable): uhh, I can't remember how Wizard handles it... 0 I guess


The following executes
-------------------------
put sign swords
put sign shields
put sign warding
put sign defending
put sign smiting
put sign striking
COUNTER SET 0
save look
start:
put %s
COUNTER ADD 1

At This Point
-------------
%s: look
%c: 1

Now this executes
--------------------
match path%c arrow
match path%c disk
match path%c Obvious
match charcheck1 dogmatist
match charcheck supplicant
match charcheck hierophant
match goon You can't go there
match stand P>
matchwait


... I assume the "match stand P>" is a board paste issue. Anyway, replace the '%c' and '%s' references with whatever the variables hold, which is in this case '1', and you get:

match path1 arrow
match path1 disk
match path1 Obvious

... etc., etc., etc. -- so then it hits the `matchwait' line, and it waits until it sees one of those lines. It then jumps to the corresponding label, and keeps going.


I think that's enough for you to modify it yourself. If you're just too lazy to do the job yourself, and not just too new to scripts to understand how to do it... well... maybe somebody else'll do it for you, but I'm not gonna.

Good luck :)

He just doesn't understand the scripting language enough to fix it is all.

Also when he said Wizard hunting script for SF, he meant the profession, not the FE. :)

There I go skimming posts again... yeah, that makes more sense -- it looks more like a Wizard script than an SF script, so I assumed it was written for The Wizard and being used in SF. Well whatever the sentence means, this is of a lot more help than my post:

Again, g'luck :)
