Author Topic: Blockland Specific Console Commands?  (Read 1190 times)

So I have known Lua for almost 5 years, no other programming language. I know barley java and TorqueScript. I have had Blockland for 4 years now and I have decided to try to code something. The problem is, all the command references that are stickied only give TorqueScript commands, meaning that any game using it will always have those commands. But I can't find any command references that tell you all the commands that are unique to Blockland. Is there any place that can tell me all of them? Don't tell me to use trace(); it's really difficult and I need a list of commands. does not work for me, it doesn't search for the right thing like 95% of the time. Google, doesn't help either. Thanks.

Hey, bro, calm down. We're here to help, not to criticize. You can't expect to pick up a new language in an instant. I can't provide you with a full list of every single function (however, dumpConsoleFunctions(); can) but I can help you with anything in specific you're trying to learn. Lots of new scripters post here a lot, and they grow just fine.

The functions specific to blockland that have been added through the engine that I know off the top of my head are discoverFile and stripChars, not totally sure about any others.

Is there anything in particular that you're looking for?

Here is a helpful list of some handy functions, their arguments, how they work, etc. I believe it was made by Zack0Wack0, aka Destiny.

It includes information on String manipulation, string processing, word-targeted functions, string tokenizing, math functions, vector functions, and some useful functions for working with RTB. You might want to bookmark it or something, as those functions are some of the most useful.
