Writing basic scripts 12/09/2012 09:55 AM CST

Can't remember how to write basic scripts or if I did, how to initiate it from the command line.

What I want to do is set up something to help put my weapon away, skin, search and loot a critter. How would this look?

Thanks

Something simple? COuld be as easy as

put stow right
put kneel
put pray
put skin $1
put stow right
put loot
echo *
echo * I am a dumb script, so don't forget to pick up your loot.
echo *

Then save that as a file like SKINNER. It would be run by typing .SKINNER <CREATURE> .

And it's not a very sophisticated script, at all.

Go to this site, and check out some of the scripts there. And if you're interested less in writing and more in using, consider installing Lich.

If you use Stormfront here is another good page about scripting on Simu's site. Find a script from somewhere then open it up to see how it works.

I've seen other people mention Lich. What is that? I had, oh what was it called...psi...something before and it kind of screwed up my pc and the way I was able to interface with the game.

PsiNet, as far as I know, is no longer maintained, and won't function properly.

Lich is a third party scripting engine supported by player efforts (and led by a player).

www.lichproject.org will give you some insight. Might be worth asking a few folks you know about first.
