It really is very useful to show a script error immediately when you make a small mistake. New programmers usually don't realise it, but after years programming you understand that the sooner you find out about a mistake, the less time you will spend in the long run fixing it. However, I ALSO agree ...

Heh, I was also disappointed when I finally realised ShooterGame used keyboard controls and wasn't eligible. Looking forward to your next game, especially if that only took a few days.

The extension is surely real, you have four days.

This is fantastic! I had a lot of fun. I got a huge shock when the spawn rate became insane after killing the 3rd spawner. After that I tried again and beat it the first time by wearing down the last two spawners evenly. Also, the game seems to get much easier after you kill one spawner and can stan...

Oops, I missed those replies to me. I'm going to replace all my "adventure" and maybe "adventure puzzle" tags with something else, but haven't decided yet. I think It doesn't really matter too much if people don't expect an "adventure puzzle" category, because it comes ...

I think this thread could be stickied. Though it should really be in the Gaming forum.

DragonChaserKev's game (looking for a scripter)

DragonChaserKev has shown up again on CastleParadox after originally asking for someone to help with scripting nearly 4 years ago. He said he's put in a lot of time and the game is "near finished", but still wants help with "a little" scripting. May be of interest to some people....

In that case the instead-of-battle script gets to run first, and the NPC script runs after it finishes. I think I never got around to documenting the precedence order. I can certainly add a script command to exit all scripts if needed. It should be pretty simple. I just have to wonder whether it's t...

(That town looks great!) I'd mistakenly thought that the deadline was the same as the end of the Random Collab. Though with only 3 teams signed up for that it's probable none of them would have co-entered. There were also several people working on first-person dungeon crawlers (me too), and Kylekrac...

Yes, it took me a while, but I had a listen a couple days ago. I'm quite impressed, actually. All of them are better than I could do! However while the melodies are distinct, they do end up sounding pretty similar, because the instruments don't change much. Listening with headphones, I found that th...

My guess is that Spoonweaver's asleep. We're moving to a leisurely two-week schedule. Also! I've decided to offer to implement small features for the contestants which are relevant to their games. You'll have to make requests to find out what counts as 'small'. Of course I always want to hear about ...

That script is correct, but as I said before, the 'slice is valid' is pointless. You can just write "if(lookup slice(sli:forward))" instead.

There isn't. I was planning to add such a command when script multitasking is added. (I would want to consider how that interacts with script fibres before adding it.) Could you describe what you want to use it for? Do you only want to exit the current script, and the one that called that one, and s...

There's a very easy way to do that. Just split your wall-of-if-tests into separate scripts, and call them all: plotscript, the on key press script, begin check hud clickables check inventory clickables ... end But then there's a problem if any of the clickables overlap, such as if you pop up a messa...
