Hello fellow scripters.

In order to help myself understand scripting and what was possible in FPSC I started creating a list of all the conditions and actions within Stock FPSC x9 v120 as well as what the correct syntax is for each command, the limits of its parameters and an example of how its used.

I've attached the latest copy of the list and any comments on how it can be improved would be appreciated.

It's not intended to teach you how to script, the commnity guide does that perfectly well. This is simply a reference document for all the script commands.

Enjoy.

Revision List
[14.06.2011] Hyper-linked version of iss2.0 now available.
[10.10.2011] Issue 3.0 (complete with gunspec and flakspec commands) now available.
[20.04.2012] Issue 4.0 including all v119 commands now available via media fire here.
[15.12.2012] Issue 5.1 including all v120 commands now available via media fire here.

For the next issue will be for v121, hopefully, with separate docs for gun/flak specs and fpe/fps files this time. I know I promised these for iss5.0, but I just haven't completed them yet!

Very usefull, especially since the community guide gets outdated very fast with the actions/conditions

However, it needs a little cleanup. Lots of Actions have the Conditions standard description, like the whole 3.4.2 parapraph:


Thanks for the hard work you did allready put into this!

I totally agree that the document is far far far from finished. The majority of this version simply has place holder text that doesn't have anything to do with the actual script command.

I posted this version to gauge reaction and to collect any suggestions before I configure the first issue.

I plan to update it regularly with x9 updates, but this will depend on how busy I get

@Pirate Myke
Cheers, I've got the latest FPI Edit Pad (what self-respecting FPSC scripter would be without it?), but I noticed a lot of the descriptions were missing so that kind of inspired me to put this together.

@Nickydude
Cheers, but what does X actually do? What are the limits? I need to test these features out so i understand what they do - there's a limit to what i can translate from the source.

It's such an excellent guide in it's own right I think it should accompany the Community Guide, not be part of it.

It might be worth contacting Lee himself to get the stuff you're not sure of, I did for my guide, just don't hit him all at once with a load of questions! lol!

Also, it might be an idea to make the contents page clickable like I have done with the Community Guides so you can go straight to the part you want. I can do that for you if you can't, I'll need the Word document though.

@NickyDude,
I will take you up on that offer when I'm ready to issue it properly

Cheers for the pointer about lee. I will ask him, but after I've completed my test phase. I'm planning on three phases for the doc:
Phase 1 just looks at the source code and puts down the questions,
Phase 2 tests the various commands and finds their limits, hopefully removing a lot of the questions.
Phase 3: ask lee.

Just finished phase 1 of the guide.

Gone through the source code and added all conditions and actions and defined the correct syntax for all of them.

Phase 2 will now test some of the commands to further define parameter limits.

Updated doc is in the first post.

As before - any feedback/help is appreciated.

Ched80,

This is truly a great and badly needed resource. Thanks so much for taking the time.
"Necessity is the mother of invention"... unknown.

If it were click-able, like from the action/condition list back to the description.... I think I would wet myself.

... and the band played on.

activated=x

x is an integer value and therefore the max is the largest number for an integer value. I don't think anybody will reach the max.

anyfurther=x

Although this is also an integer value, it would not make sense to make it so that it is larger than the map size.

quantity=x

I believe it might be the quantity of ammo for a character's weapon before he has to reload. That's my best guess looking at the source code. Again it is an integer value so I doubt it would make a difference to max. Although, I don't think it would not be very high to begin with. I have not tested this to make sure my assumption is correct, however.

Random=x

Again it is an integer. Of course, if you use the max an integer value can have, the likely-hood of it returning true is almost nil.

state

Again an integer value. There are only 350 lines available in a script so no reason to go more than that if it's one line per state.

------------------------------------------

Most all of the values are integer values. So max will probably never be a problem.

Thanks Flatlander, I'd figured out some of those from testing, but the into on the quantity condition ws news to me - I'll do some extra tests.

@Reptile00: This isn't the correct thread for your question. This board concerns questions about my "Complete Script Syntax List". Nevertheless; creating a second floor is achieved by placing objects on the current active layer in the level editor. The active layer is selected by using the '+' and '-' keys. You can also adjust the height position of your objects by using the 'page up' and 'page down' keys.

Of course you still had the max highlighted so I wasn't sure. And I don't know how to even use quantity. I would imagine it is used within the character entity's main ai. I suppose one could set the quantity to 1 and see if it reloads after a single shot. Might be useful if the character has machine gun of some sort. Would give a better chance to watch if he reloads. If he doesn't then either I'm all wet or it doesn't work how I thought it would.

I apologize for misguiding anyone, but as for quantity my first assumption was wrong. I wasn't paying attention. This is not an action it is a condition.

Considering it a condition I tested this out by first setting this script line:

:quantity=1:destroy and placing it in the shoot ai.

The character was destroyed immediately.

So, I changed the quantity to 2. I was assuming that the entity would be destroyed when it got to ammo quantity of "2". Didn't happen. Never was destroyed.

The inconsistency makes this perplexing and leaves me with the conclusion, "I don't know what is going on with this."

Don't worry; I've decided to hold back on the update until after the Remake competition - the deadline is 14th April so i'm going to focus on my entry before coming back and finishing the CS²T.

Also i hadn't progressed the doc quite as far as i'd hoped.

This could be great because I am thinking of making a program that lists commands and explains what they do, so if you are stuck in a script - you know what you want to do but dont know the command (say you want to move the player forward), you would go Actions>Player>Movement>Stock>X (I cannot remember the exact command), which would be useful also for people who dont know much about scripting.) It would also include an editor and descriptions of what each command does, and how to use it. Actions and conditions can be added by using a MOD Expansion Pack (or MODEP), which pretty much contains an up-to-date (where possible) pack of conditions and actions. You can install as many MOD Expansion Packs as you like, and they are all sorted into which mod they belong to.

A mod has been erased by this sig because it is too large

Just a quick post to mention that I've uploaded a new draft of the doc since I've had a few requests to do so. I'm planning to release the final version to coincide with the final version of v118.

@Michael Tompson - good look with your program, if you would like the word version of my doc to help you, let me know.

After using this once again, I just wanted to reiterate how useful this is and I really appreciate all the work you put put into it.

Now update it again.

@Xplosys and CE,

I'm working on getting a linkable version, which I'll post as soon as I've sorted it out.

Issue 2.0 covering all of v118 is now released - non-linkable at the moment.

Can I make a suggestion?

Some of the examples may be a little unclear to new users because the example doesn't work by itself and does not tell you what else it needs.
For instance...

HUDUSERVAR=VarName
Description: This uses a declared global variable as a numerical HUD

Example: :state=1:huduservar=KillCount

A better way might be to include a working state and then bold the part being explained, like...

HUDUSERVAR=VarName
Description: This uses a declared global variable as a numerical HUD

Example:
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=70,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=gamecore\huds\numeric1.tga,hudtype=6,huduservar=uservariablename,hudmake=numeric

Just a suggestion.
What do you guys think?

Also, I have been told that mousestate=2 works, but I did not see that description in the guide, only =0 and =1, so maybe that can be added too.
I'll save more nitpicking for later.
I am really loving this, because it is helping me get a handle on all of these new conditions/actions, which are so important to know as a scripter.
THANKS AGAIN CHED80!!!

CE, this is a sound suggestion. I'll go through all the examples and update them for the next version.

Concerning mousestate, there are actually 16 possibile settings 0-15. 0=no button, 1=left button, 2=right, 4=middle, 8=forth button and the other numbers are combinations of buttons, I thought I had added this, but it seems I uploaded a slightly older version.

Oh, binarylicious.
I'll have fun with that one then.
Thanks


EDIT
I have a question... is the WEBLINK action functional yet, or is it planned? (3.16.2.9 page 92)
I tried using it but nothing happened.
This would be great for passing variables to a server sided script for creating leaderboards.

Also,
There is a typo in the description for it...This opens the wedsite...

Just a bump to say iss2.0 is now available as a hyper-linked pdf file.

Cheers for the tyto spot CE - the weblink action should be functional as the correct code is in the source - I've spotted that you need to include "hppt:" at the start of the address or it will not work.

I'll update the action with the typpo and additional info for iss3.0.

Hello Ched80,

First of all, congratulations on this outstanding research work about scripting. Actually great!

It's great also to see people in this community by putting personal effort to produce quality documentation for both beginners and non beginners (seasoned ones) in FPSC game engine. Very useful for all of us.

I did not know that camshake has been enabled in the official version of the FPSC, an effect of camera very useful in scenes with explosions or heavy things moving around. Very nice!

Thank you so much for this great release about scripting.

All the best

Here is something that should be changed:

In every spot where you have a filepath the '\' is backwards. In the pdf it would be like this:

audiobank/x/x

when it should be like this:

audiobank\x\x


Great work by the way.


Cheers.

God help me, Please.

Great spot Beastmode - This will be fixed in iss3.0.

Just an update, I'm about 50% of the way through iss3.0, but I'm getting married next week so iss3.0 won't be out until I come back in mid-July.

@Captain Coder, thanks for your kind words. iss3.0 has been ready for a few weeks, but there are a number of gunspec commands I haven't defined in enough detail and I really want to sort them out before I upload the new issue. Should be ready in a few weeks.

Jump a bump to say iss3.0 is finally ready. All gun and flak spec command are now included.

I'm beginning to think I should split the doc up into separate lists, so you would have a scripts doc, a gun & flak doc, etc.

What do people think?

For the next version I am going to include all the segment (fps) commands - hence thoughts about splitting the doc up - although this next phase is unlikely to be completed this year.

Enjoy!
