Movement

Hows the movement aspect for most of these scripts work? Anyone feel like giving me a quick breakdown?

[TheEschaton]

I don't think I get what you're saying.


If you mean the MOVE command in the Wizard FE script language, it's basically just a PUT <direction> followed by a WAITFOR <room input> sort of thing. It'll put a direction in, and then wait til it acknowledges room input (note, this counts for when you LOOK, etc).

I always start my EN-to-Landing script one SW of the Sapphire gate, FLIRT there, and when the script tries to go SW, I will use LOOK to get the script to think I did just go SW. I hate flirting in front of other people.

I don't think he's speaking of that.

I think he's speaking of that part of scripts:

goback:
put look
match gb0 Obvious exits: southwest
match gb2 Obvious exits: northwest
match gb4 Obvious exits: northeast
match gb6 Obvious exits: southeast
match gb3 Obvious exits: north
match gb5 Obvious exits: east
match gb7 Obvious exits: south
match gb1 Obvious exits: west
matchwait

gb0:
save sw
goto mover

gb1:
save w
goto mover


Which I have 0 clue at all.

Yea, that stuff X

[TheEschaton]

Which scripts? Am I missing something? That's not in my scripts.

-TheE-

[Xcalibur]

See his first post

That's the "normal" way to make the cool scripts to move.

If not, you're assuming the route (put move e, put move n) which makes a script long as hell and slow as some chick's brains.

Okay, i got this script that incorporates the movement method Kranar uses, along with a basic function. I.e Check locker to see if someone is in there and if not move on to next and if so put boxes into the locker. WHY THE FUCK DOESN"T IT WORK. For whatever reason it hangs up when you cycle back through the different box types.

1. Why put boxes in a locker?
2. Why make a script to put boxes in a locker?

Its just a little test to see if i know what i'm doing. However, if you wanted a practical application it could be used in a hunting script to save boxes so you can go get em picked when you have the time.

[Bobmuhthol]

I think it could be a lot shorter, but other than that I don't see why it doesn't work efficiently.

Because it hangs. Let me demonstrate

You put an iron-bound monir strongbox in your rolaren-clasped pack.

[Moot Hall, Great Lobby]
This is the great lobby of the Moot Hall. Hushed voices discussing urgent town matters echo off the high ceiling. The walls are draped in rich tapestries framing niches that hold marble busts of local dignitaries. Ahead of you is a double door, and to your left, a mahogany door bearing a silver plaque. You also see a huge wall map of the lands carved from solid maple and polished to a deep sheen, the Debt Collector's Office, a staircase with a sign on it, a small brass plaque with a map of town mounted on the wall and a blackboard.
Also here: Destructin
Obvious exits: east, out
>look in pack
Destructin just went east.

In the rolaren-clasped pack you see an iron-bound monir strongbox, a rotting thanot chest and a rotting tanik box.

[Moot Hall, Storage Facility]
You are in the anteroom of the public storage locker facility. This area is busy with clerks going over paperwork. A hallway leads east to the locker booths.
Obvious exits: east, west
>
[Moot Hall, Storage Hall]
You are in a darkly lit hallway which travels east and west. On the north wall is a curtained opening.
Obvious exits: east, west

You'll have to wait, Randin is presently using that locker booth.

You step through the curtained opening.
[Public Lockers]
You are standing in a tiny room whose facing wall is an array of small, locked doors. One of the lockers has been removed for you and is sitting on a small counter. You also see a curtained opening.
Obvious exits: none
>open lock
>look in pack
You open the locker.

>get strongbox
You place the monir strongbox in the locker, and it quickly disappears.

In the rolaren-clasped pack you see a rotting tanik box.

Then it hangs

Also, how would you make it shorter.

[Bobmuhthol]

I understand it hangs, what I said was I don't know why it would.

I'll post a shorter version in a minute.

[Bobmuhthol]

Okay, well, this thing is confusing as all hell, but I shortened it a little and fixed a typo or two.

Yours doesn't even get out of the first room. But i'll try and incorporate the save command

[Bobmuhthol]

<<Yours doesn't even get out of the first room.>>

I didn't change anything in the first half of the script.

Copy and paste yours, it won't work either, I guarantee it.

I already copied it working.

[Bobmuhthol]

Copy it from here, paste it in a new file, use it. It won't work.

And pay attention to the fucking game I've been talking to you for an hour.

Doesn't work. This is what happens

Thats what i did when i said yours didn't work. Anyway, i went to jack in the box so i wasn't at my computer

[Bobmuhthol]

Fuck, I know why, put a matchwait in lockeritbaby and it will work.

For whatever reason, when i add the save command to it, it just keeps trying to get strong box and shit
