I cannot seem to edit the scripts in stormfront manually typing in ever single line. No cut&paste etc. I also cant seem to locate the script directory to edit the scripts outside of the front end.

Any help?

--Thanks.

Dont know about editing them when not in SF but to cut and paste in SF you have to use CTRL-c and CTRL-v you can not right click in the script editor

To save you the trouble of retyping. Edit your script in notepad or an equivalent text editor, saving every so often. When finished, select all, copy, and paste into your blank Stormfront script edit window with ctrl-v.

By far it is the biggest of mine. One that worked exactly like notepad would be pristine . And that's not a word I use often.

hehe lots of people like server side

i'm one of those that hates it

simply because the text editor sucks

Second Life has the same kind of script editor. It makes sigh.

Got it in one. I copy/paste countless times between the two for that single function alone.

Also, it would be nice if stuff wouldn't scale if you held down control and used the wheel button. It's weird :)

Ahh, neat. Never knew about that, must be a feature of the richedit control(that's what its using).

Yep, those are sorely missed features for me as well. Just to give one example, any kind of sophisticated script will use variables extensively and you've got to have a quick way to update variable names if you decide to make a change.

I also like having the editor be a separate process from the front end so I can have multiple windows going. And I know you can use the keyboard shortcuts <ctrl-C> etc, but I much prefer using the right-click context menu to do that. And there's still a bug in the 'scripts' window in SF where the story window scroll freezes when you click OK.

But... I love that you can put something like this into your script.

put for %1
blah blah
put drop %1 in %2

and that for %1, you can do this .forage yelith_root blue_pouch

and you'll get...

for yelith root

put yelith root in blue pouch

I love that, if you could do that with wizard, I never knew about it till I got to stormfront, but it's still nice.

<Quotes also work, so yelith_root and "yelith root" work the same.>

in YASSE you can also use brackets [yelith root]. brackets are neat because you can use quote marks inside the brackets. wizard and stormfront see the brackets and ignore them, they see the quote mark and see it as the beginning of a word...
