...yes!

* New string control codes: 16/XX adds item number XX to Link's inventory, and 17/XX removes that item from Link's inventory.

YES! YES! YES! After months of petitioning, begging and requesitng, finally. I had given up hope. Thank you Dev's thank you! *goes off to dance among the daffodils singing*

[Russ]

Hurray! Code that adds and removes items! Can today get any better?

[Joe123]

I don't see what's so great about that, scripting does it easily already...

[The_Amaster]

Yeah, but A.) This way you just need a string, instead of a string and a script. and B.) I can't script anyway.

[Joe123]

ffc script remove_item{
void run(int item_ID){
Link->Item[item_ID] = false;
}
}

I've just got used to the fact that I'm going to need to use scripts everywhere I suppose really. Each to their own :shrug:

[The_Amaster]

I'm trying to, but there still isn't a cohesive tutorial for absolute coding morons yet. When there is, I'll script.

[Joe123]

pssssht, you can learn ZScript without a comprehesive tutorial.
I have, and I'd no knowledge of any computer languages at all beforehand.

http://www.shardstorm.com/ZCwiki/ZSc...uage_Reference
There's documentation here (although it's almost the same as that that comes with Zquest)
http://www.purezc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=25946
this is useful for very basic matters
http://www.geocities.com/pikachu_fan...pttutorial.txt
then this one
http://zctut.com/script1.php
then this one is very helpful, but you might want to look at the others first.

The best way of learning is to read other people's scripts though, easily. Download Zodiac :P

Get the book C++ All In One Desk Refernce For Dummies. Read the first part of it to get the basics. Then look at scripts to see how they work. When I did this, it suddenly clicked. Now, I can't say I can really script, but I can at least do basic things like give Link items and spawn enemies.

Edit: Joe123, you posted at the same time. Wierd.

[The_Amaster]

You know, the current unreleased build has a lot. Any chance we could get it out soon, like, tonight? (Any dev who reads this) ;)

Man...I started one but i'm just so busy lately. Does anyone want to help me by adding a "loops for morons" section? (while, for, if) Also cover stuff like bool and float and maybe simlpe routines. So far i'm at [usind std, pointers, int, vars, X, Y, Vx, Ax, Data, if's...well using general basic things basically.

[Joe123]

Apparently I posted before you Russ actually :P

And pleaaase do that Gleeok, I have no idea how for works at all.

[Russ]

Does anyone want to help me by adding a "loops for morons" section? (while, for, if)

I have an good understanding of loops. I could help you with that. Still totally confused about bool though.
And any develpor who reads this, please compile a windows build. Please.

[Nicholas Steel]

wait for them all to finish/submit there changes before they release a new windows build else theres no point because we would still have to wait for them to finish up before we can do any real testing since the newer stuff could cause potential problems.

patience is virtue.

[Russ]

patience is virtue.

Unfortunately, I lack this virtue. Please compile the next build, developers.

[Nicholas Steel]

developers, please do whats best.
