O.o

People sell scripts?...wait. People BUY scripts?!?!

Oh well. I got a few old and new scripts from trader friends which I used and now I compiled and modified it all into one easy to use script. :)

I actually enjoy making my own complicated scripts that no one else wants because it requires player input at various stages of the script ::G::

I'm too paranoid about getting distracted to have a looping trading script that goes on and on.

D-E-P-A-R-T is very easy to spell. You should try it sometime.

Get a good front end and you can do things like this and do a zoluren script with probably less than 200 lines not including travel

well, if its just avoiding keystrokes, I don't know anything about macintosh, but for wizard if you make command scripts you can have them just go outpost to outpost.

for instance, rather than having a loop, you could try just having scripts to go to the individual outposts


To give you an idea what i mean, this is my script to go to arthe dale <with a caravan>. It works from the caravansary, from anyplace on the regular trading route, and from the streets of the crossing that are normally part of where the caravans lead.

#TRArthe

put Tell car to go fast
put tell car to lead to arthe dale


waitfor having arrived at its destination

put tell car to follow
pause 2
move go gate

match Done What were you referring to?
match Done A shipment clerk ignores your offer
match Contracts The shipment clerk accepts
matchwait

Done:
echo ** thats all the contracts for this outpost *
end




"Word on the street is, ya been lookin' out for the best interests of the Guild."

I've been working lately on a trading script. Starts or restarts from any outpost and handles all the trading. It also trains perception, mech, and appraisal while on the routes. Even keeps a record of all your contracts for you. Cost, Dues, Fees, Gross, Net, Weight, and Number of and Type of items being transported. Logging them to a separte window for recording to a file. In a word, its Great! <Sorry, flashback to Tony the Tiger>

Unfortunatly though I use Genie, and since Genie allows for Triggers, the script uses them heavily. I don't know if they would work in Stormfront, but I'm sure they won't with the Wizard. Anyway, I'd suggest switching to Genie, since I posted the script, or at least a recent version of it there in the forums, but is really a matter of preference.
