Getting the killer of a bot.

[Ephialtes]

Its just an object that you can't see. It's really not hard to comprehend, imagine a scriptobject is a staticshape, but you cant see it or touch it, ok? They both work exactly the same from the script side of things (except it has a datablock but forget about that).

Solved.

I kinda get what they are, I'm just confused about what happens when you do

Code: [Select]

%blah = new scriptObject(){
blah = "blah";
}
Is it like

Code: [Select]

%blah = new StaticShape(){
datablock = blah;
}

[Ephialtes]

yes, exactly like that.

[MrPickle]

I see.

Thanks.

Code: [Select]

%bot.minigame = new scriptObject(){};
Umm...

You wouldn't want to do it that way because minigames are already script objects.  IE, if you create a minigame and set it to $RPGMini, $RPGMini refers to the object number of a script object containing the properties of that minigame.

With your blah examples, anything you define within the brackets becomes a tagged field.  Just like dataBlock is a tagged field (one of several in a set of default variables for that type of object) of a staticShape, minigame can be a tagged field of your botClient.

Hmm, Ok.

What's a simSet?

I found this in a file:

Code: [Select]

new SimSet(Spawns);

It's a way of grouping similar types of objects.  There's a group for bricks, a group for spawns, a group for clients, etc.

[MrPickle]

is that what getGroup does? Gets the simSet it's in?

[Trader]

Yes, I believe so.

[MrPickle]

There's so much i don't know, I might go indulge myself in advanced tutorials.

Isn't that new SimGroup(){}?

[Trader]

I think there's one simset with multiple simgroups.
