Scripting..

[alibaydoun]

i know there are many threads but i just dontget how to write scrips, the scripts on mstations website are allready written so doesnt give me much exp.

i was looking how to place an npc somewhere- and adding a tele to cave command..not sure how to do it but i want to learn how to script in general

thanks

 

[mStation]

best way of learning is using already made npcs.. anyhow another way is reading all the commands jealy put together here: http://www.jealy.co.uk/mir/NPCcommands/All.html

try putting here some lines of a script to teleport to the caves and let's see if we can workout a script together

 

[alibaydoun]

telling me where to start and how would help, as i've said i dont know how to script =/

 

[Jeffking]

U must to understand this scripts:#IF , #ACT, #Elseact, #say,#elsesay.....etc, & the rest are only IMAGINATION. IS VERY SIMPLE !!! :tongue1:

 

[NewHope]

Take a look at existing scripts to get an idea of how they work.
The basic ones in the NPC folder.
Then look at that list that the guy posted above.

:agree:

 

[alibaydoun]

Go on your SQL Database (2000/2005) and TBL_NPC.

Right Click > Return All Rows

ID = Obvious
FLD_NAME = Name of the NPC, so you add it into NPC_DEF (M2Server>Envir>NPC_DEF) then say for instance its called TeleStone-16.txt you add just TeleStone into the FLD_NAME.
FLD_TYPE = No idea, I just put 0.
FLD_MAPNAME = Name of the map, for instance BW is 0 so you put 0 for BW.
FLD_X = First Set of co-ords (when you check its XXX:YYY)
FLD_Y = Second set of co-ords
FLD_FLAG = No idea lol, not great at this but I just put 0
FLD_APPEARENCE = The look of NPC, to see ingame its something like @mobnpc I think.
FLD_ENABLED = Just put 1.

Hope I helped lol, pretty basic though maybe someone will explain in more detail :X

EDIT:
For ACTUAL scripting though, when I first started I found this good (http://www.senture-mir.com/mirfiles/mir2/NPCeditor.rar)
Also generally http://www.senture-mir.com/mirfiles/mir2/ is a good website.

Once you know how to use

#IF
#ELSEIF
#ACT
#ELSEACT
#SAY
#ELSESAY

It's pretty easy, just look at commands and learn

the [@main} has a } instead of a ]
@next3 is without []
and there is no [@next4]

#IF
check
DragonScale 5
LargeBone 5
SpiderWeb 5
#ACT
give SwordOfWarGod 1
break
#ELSEACT
break

what is wrong here?

 

[mStation]

[@next2]
#IF
checkitem DragonScale 5
checkitem LargeBone 5
checkitem SpiderWeb 5
#ACT
give SwordOfWarGod 1
break
#ELSEACT
break

check is used to see if some flags are setted..

 

[alibaydoun]

hmm, worked...1more thing, i know im asking alot but here it goes


if i want to make an item called PetScroll, how do i do it and how do i add the command
to give u a certain pet? or a variaty of your choice? max 2 pets

 

[alibaydoun]

double post

 

[mStation]

to create an iteam:
OPEN the SQL SERVER Enterprise Manager.. enter in the mir2 database.. choose Tables and right click on TBL_STDITEMS and choose OPEN TABLE -> Return All Rows..

This will make you open the stditems list.. find the item u will like to use.. in the tbl_stditems add a new item called:
PetScroll with
FLD_STDMode = 31 and
FLD_SHAPE = 0
FLD_WEIGHT = 1 or whatever u prefer
FLD_Anicount = 30 or a number which we will have to remember
set all the other fields to 0 or something that you prefer if u want them to have a decent price or whatever..
FLD_IMGINDEX is what it looks like.. copy it from another items that you want to make it look like else use lomimageviewer and open the items.wil and put the number of the frame of the looks you prefer..

most important is keeping FLD_STDMode to 31 and SHAPE to 0 so that if you double click it, it will dissapear..

Now to complete it we need to go into C:\Mirserver\M2Server\Envir\Market_Def and open QFunction-0.txt
we will have to enter the following code to make it give pets:

[@StdModeFunc30] ; Put 30 if u chosen FLD_ANICOUNT = 30 for the item..
#say
Hi <$USERNAME>! \ \
<Pet2/@pet1>, <Pet2/@pet2>\
<Exit/@exit>

[@pet1]
#ACT
RECALLMOB MOBNAME 1
#say
Here is Pet1! \ \
BREAK

[@pet2]
#ACT
RECALLMOB MOBNAME 1
#say
Here is pet2! \ \
BREAK

this is more about what you should do.. i didnt test it so i don't know if its perfect or not

 

[Fire]

you will also want to use checkslavecount, or something similar (cant remember the exact wording)... otherwise you potentially will have more than 2 pets for a player
