heedicalking:
What would be the use of a scriptgroup? How would I go about getting members of each. I plan to make a system where a scriptgroup holds scriptobjects which each hold bricks. I wouldl ike to know how scriptgroups work.

--- Code: ---if(!isobject(PRPGChunks))
$PRPG::Chunks = new scriptGroup(PRPGChunks);
function Chunkgen(%grid)
{
if(%grid $= "")
return;
%chunk = new scriptObject()
{
class = PRPG_ChunkSO;
grid = %grid;
creatorBLID = 3291;
};
$PRPG::Chunks.add(%chunk);

}
function PRPG_ChunkSO::onAdd(%this) //minigame initial setup
{
echo("created");
}

function PRPG_ChunkSO::onRemove(%this)
{
echo("removed");
}
--- End code ---
How would I go about getting children of the group, removing children from the group, checking if children exist, getting a list of them, and so on.

Brian Smithers:
it's easy ;)

--- Code: ---
if(isObject(exampleGroup))
exampleGroup.delete();
new ScriptGroup(exampleGroup);

function exampleGroup::exampleFunction(%this,%exampleNumber)
{
for(%i=0;%i<%exampleNumber;%i++)
{
%obj = new ScriptObject();
%obj.number = %exampleNumber;
%this.add(%obj);
}
}
function exampleGroup::dumpExampleObjects(%this)
{
for(%i=0;%i<%this.getCount();%i++)
{
%obj = %this.getObject(%i);
%num = %obj.number;
echo("Object: " @ %obj @ " Number: " @ %number);
}
}

--- End code ---

if you do for example
exampleGroup.exampleFunction(5);
it will create 5 example objects and will add it to the example group.
then when you do exampleGroup.dumpExampleObjects(); it loops through all the objects inside the exampleGroup
then it gets each object, finds the number in it, and echos it.
Some quick notes

ScriptGroup.add(%object) - will add an object to the group
ScriptGroup.getCount() - will list the amount of objects in the script group
ScriptGroup.getObject(%count) - it will get the object in the group. %count i think is like, the first object added to the group would be 0, the next 1, the one after that would be 2. etc.
ScriptGroup.remove(%object) - removes an object from the group
ScriptGroup.isMember(%object) - returns a boolean value, checking to see if the object is a member of the script group.

Heres a quick chunk system i made, not tested but feel free to use it.

function chunkObject()
{
   return new ScriptObject() { class = "Chunk" };
}

function Chunk::addBrick(%this,%brick)
{
   if(isObject(%brick.chunkGroup))
   {
      error("::addBrick(%this,%brick): " @ %brick @ " is in a group!");
      return;
   }
   %brick.chunkGroup = %this;
   %this.chunk[%this.chunkCount++] = %brick;
}
function Chunk::clearBricks(%this)
{
   for(%i=0;%i<%this.chunkCount;%i++)
   {
      %brick = %this.chunk[%i];
      if(isObject(%brick))
         %brick.delete();
   }
}
function Chunk::getBricks(%this)
{
   for(%i=0;%i<%this.chunkCount;%i++)
   {
      if(%str $= "")
         %str = %this.chunk[%i];
      else
         %str = %str SPC %this.chunk[%i];
   }
   return %str;
}
function ChunkGroup::getBricks(%this)
{
   for(%i=0;%i<%this.getCount();%i++)
   {
      %chunk = %this.getObject(%i);
      if(%str $= "")
         %str = %chunk.getBricks();
      else
         %str = %str SPC %chunk.getBricks();
   }
   return %str;
}
function newChunkGroup()
{
   %chunkGroup = new ScriptGroup()
   {
      class = "ChunkGroup";
   };
   return %chunkGroup;
}
function ChunkGroup::newChunk(%this,%bricks)
{
   %chunkObject = chunkObject();
   for(%i=0;%i<getFieldCount(%bricks);%i++)
   {
      %brick = getField(%bricks,%i);
      %chunkObject.addBrick(%brick);
   }
   return %chunkObject;
}

Just do %scriptGroup.listObjects(); It's a default method.

i was showing how to get all objects in script group
plus, it was a custom message.
