Hi,

this is my little scripting thread. Here I will store all my scripts or at least links to the scripts to make it easier to find them.
If you have problems, just say it and I will fix it as soon as I read it or at least explain why it is not working in the current state.

All scripts can be used commercial and uncommercial for free. Do not tell anyone you made this. Thanks.
Credit is not necessary, but appreciated

How to start scripting:

GG Tutorials:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=398177770
https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/212794


Some Basic Lua tutorials:
English:
http://www.lua.org/pil/1.html
Crash Courses:
http://luatut.com/crash_course.html
http://tylerneylon.com/a/learn-lua/

German:
http://lua.gts-stolberg.de/

Some Lua Editors:
Test them all and find your favorite, there is not a best one.
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ - Here is a syntax highlighting addon for GG: https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/213931
http://studio.zerobrane.com/ - Has a compile function, so you can find smaller lua syntax mistakes
http://luaedit.sourceforge.net/ - Just another option(I did not use this, but maybe you find it good)

If you have a editor and some basic knowledge you should start with GG functions. Your best friend will be the Prompt("string") command. In programming there is no wrong or right, it counts if it works or not. Of course there is a good commented or optimised version, but you started scripting, so let this be your last optional part of scripting

As a small tipp: Nearly every command is in the global.lua in your scriptbank folder.

Before you say a script do not work, test this:
Go into properties and look for
static Mode = NO (if your entity is now away set: Immobile=Yes)
Always active=Yes (if it now works, you are just to far away)

How to start in a logical row:
1) Simple and advanced text messages, timer events (if you understand that, you can start your Quest system)
2) X-Y-Z axis for player and entities (play with it, read it, change it and so on)(be sure you disable collision for entities if you move them)
3) Test Environment Lua Commands like SetFogBlue(v) and so on(optional)
4) Learn to use GG. Ok how I mean this: GG is in a state where a lot of stuff is included, but you maybe never use it. But you will be no good scripter if you not undertand how to read the global.lua. It has a lot of commands and should know what can be done or not, or how to work around.

After you did this a lot and think you undertstand itno row)
*) AI expirience with animation
*) Hear what people in the forum want and try to archieve (Inventories, Quest Systems, a complete Environment changer,...)
*) Think what you need and develope it
*) Learn to use functions. If your script should be optimised, use functions. This are commands you write yourself in the script, because it is a calculation, you need a part of a script more often, or your script becomes unclear.

Functions Example:


Of course this is no tutorial, but for all beginners it should give a small way to orientate oneself.

Happy learning

Hi Crono_1

OK, great I got it to work, standing on the hood of a car. Very cool,

That said, a video I saw (wish I knew where it is) showed the player on the deck of a flying airship, and while flying the player could walk around on the deck. When I try to use the regular arrow keys to move the player with your scripts, I cannot move around without the platform also moving . Also, when it first starts I'm transported to the flying entity without actually entering the trigger zone??

As is this is a great and simple script which I can use for many things. Do you have solutions for the above questions?

Thanks again

This would be a complete different script. This script just move the entity and teleport the player to its position. The trigger entity is just to teleport the player.

Sent me a pm what you wish for a script and I will see what I can do

you're referring to this https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/211357#msg2512878, i think it just uses a different collision mode so the player can walk around on top of it?

As an opening a small script:

This script set a triggerzone to the game area. If the player leave it, he gets a message to return otherwise he dies.


Of course it is up to you to modify it with fog, huds and so on

Search for key script:
(place a key in a trashcan or anything else, give the key this script and set him to immobile)
