First stick with ES? Ask about ANYTHING there.

« on: October 17, 2007, 11:10:41 PM »

So, you want to start coding but you are missing most important things... First, best way to learn is have a good teacher, not copy and paste races, its just pointless, in my opinion it won't help you in anything, especially in easiest things as when use event_varS and server_varS.

- before writing "est_xxxx" command, write before "es" so it looks like "es est_AnyCommand server_var(example)"
- never use quote marks ( " " ) in races or you will get owned.
- what are event_varS and server_varS?

event_var(userid) - for player_spawn - the player who spawns (owner of a race), for player_attacker - player who got attacked by you, for player_victim - YOU!, for player_say - player who says something

event_var(attacker) - for player_attacker - you, player_victim - player who attacked you

server_var(wcs_xxx) - a server "variable"

server_var(wcs_userid) - the player who hit ultimate key

or used ability

What if i want to make skill with a chance? Here is it.

"skill1_setting" "es_xsetinfo wcs_chance 15|es_xsetinfo wcs_chance 20"
"skill1_cmd" "if (server_var(wcs_dice) <= server_var(wcs_chance)) then racealias_yourname"
"racealias_yourname" "your;code"

You got 20% chance to activate code in racealias_yourname on level 2 and 15% chance on level 1.

Plz ask about anything even easiest and all...

i think makeing copy and paste race is an exellent way to learn
verry fun too, figureing out how things work just by trying them different ways.learning what means what to where you can eventually make your own race, then posting it on the forums to find out everything you did wrong.
thats how i learned what i know.half by trying different things with already made skills and half by the critics on the forum telling you everything you did wrong.

Make a copy & paste race = you will be propably not able to make custom races in the future

Frodo is such a noob when it comes to race coding.

Every player_ is a event. Player_attacker is a event, if you have this event, your code will execute every time you attack someone. Player_victim, is executed every time you get hit. Theres events for everything, like event_bomb_defused or something.

lol, yes, the proper event is player_hurt, which krypt split up into two so that you could have offensive and defensive skills.

As for copy and paste, nothing wrong with making them for your own, its posting them here that makes them a WOET.

c6464 is wrong, not every player_ is an event, its not actually an event, its just a cfg built by krypt to handle the events with respect to skills.

Frodo probably should have mentioned the different cfgs, and that that was what he was referring to.

Also, don't listen to Frodo about the es thing, heres the proper guide to putting an es infront of your commands:

If you have a command, such as es_give, server will run better if you use es_xgive, sticking an x in front of it. Same thing happens with the if changing to es_xif.
However, if you have variables in your command, that means anything with server_var or event_var, before the ;, then you need a es AT THE START of the colon.

For example:
es_xif (5 = 3) then est_drunk #a 5; is fine
es es_xif (server_var(wcs_five) = 3) then est_drunk #a 5; Needs that es in front
es es_xif (server_var(wcs_five) = 3) then es est_drunk #a 5; Too many es's, you don't need that second one in front of the est_drunk.

Why you use es es_x too?

Why not listen to me about es? I didn't say anything about "if" :mrgreen:

and yes if you got

if (server_var(wcs_xxx) = 1) then anycmd_which_does_not_expand_variables

It will work without es in front of any command after "then"

But, i'm not sure about blocks... Wolf, what if

if (server_var(wcs_greedy) = 1) do
{
...code...
}

? Do i need to expand everything anyway? i think i do because if should expand only then not do {} cmds... but i'm not sure
