 Posted: Tue Feb 04, 2003 6:33 am Post subject: Downloadable Plotscript Library |
 |
|
Sometime ago, I made a plotscripting library with quite a few helpful commands. So, I'm just here to post the link to it. I won't go into detail, since I have a webpage for that  .
Cube's Utility Library
And please, if anyone has suggestions for new commands, let me know. If it's a command that will be useful, then I'll add it and give you credit for the suggestion. The more commands this thing has, the better.

I usually make my own "commands" as I go along in my scripts to shorten them and make them easier to read, so if I make any I'll be sure to hand them to you.

I don't know how exactly the whole .lib thing works, but I put these in the same kind of format the commands are in in your utility.lib file.
| Code: | Define script (autonumber,Remove Equipment,1,0)
Script, Remove Equipment, hero, begin
Unequip (find hero (hero),0)
Unequip (find hero (hero),1)
Unequip (find hero (hero),2)
Unequip (find hero (hero),3)
Unequip (find hero (hero),4)
#useful if a character leaves the party temporarily or permanently so that
#his equipment can be equipped to someone else or sold
End
|
That isn't hard to do even without the thing there, but it saves a lot of time.
| Code: | Define script (autonumber,Set NPC Z,2,0,0)
Script, Set NPC Z, npc, z, begin
Put npc (npc,npc pixel x (npc),npc pixel y (npc) -- z)
#it has to be ‘minus’ the z to go up, as the OHR editor has 0 at the top and the
#highest number at the bottom and the npc can only change it’s position in
#pixels, in cannot actually overlap the hero or npcs that normally appear over
#it… so it's best for set events
end
|
Also not terribly complicated, but saves time... and whenever I do it myself I keep forgetting the minus thing and using + the number, making it lower, so that's good for me...
Do you think they're good or bad?
EDIT: Also, I can't seem to download the utility.lib file. It just has the text appear in the browser like with a .txt file, so I can only copy and paste it. Will it work if I save it as a .txt, or do I need to save it as a .lib, and if I do do I need to save it with some special program? I don't know anything about that kind of file, obviously. Sorry for all the questions!

I think those commands will be okay. A lot of those commands are already short cuts, like "Box Wait".
Also, if ANYONE is having trouble downloading the file, just right click the link and then save it.
To use it, just include it into the plotscripting file you use, like you do with other files. Then you can use the commands. |

If I right-click the link I only get the options Open, Open in a new window, Copy Shortcut, Add to Favorites and Properties. If I go to the file and I right-click in there, I just get options like Back, Select all, Print, and some of the first ones. If I copy and paste it into notepad or word and save it as .lib should it work?

There SHOULD be a "Save Target As" choice. What browser do you use?

| Yeah that should've worked, but I decided to put the library in a ZIP file. So now nobody should have any problems. |

Thanks, sorry about that! Anyway, my computer only let's me use 'save target as...' if it sees it as something that can't be viewed as a normal webpage, so I guess it decided to just open this kind of file up like that...

Something you may already have known: While 'Delete Spell' is a command listed in the utility file, it isn't listed on the site. Some people probably don't know it's in there.

Wow, that's pretty cool. You could teach Paige a thing or two.

| The "Run If Key is Pressed" is no good. I made the same script about a year or so ago, and it had high potential for bugginess. If I still had my scripts from Dante, I could give you my "Run If Key is Held" script from ORBituaries and Magnus XVII, but I have no way of getting those scripts... |

Okay, that was weird... Why didn't it log me in for that previous message?
And Seth, he couldn't teach Mr. Paige anything. Trust me. Paige is a freaking plotscripting genius. Moogle1's got nothing on him. |
