LUA Script WIKI

[Scatman]

I guess wiki automatically sets the title to the URL or something? :/ If there's no way to change it, then I guess we'll just leave it as is since we'll include the parameters in the other places down below. Just checked it out, it actually doesn't look bad at all leaving the params on the main page because wiki puts a nice 1/2 (full?) space in between each link.

Ok, we'll go that route then. Hell if we decide we hate it, we can just change it.

Starting to fill some of those in, the easy ones of course. Hahaha. :p

[John Adams]

Ooh! One more thing!

Ok, see all teh functions where LE put something like "GetCurrentHP(Spawn)"?

Can those actually be used on NPCs? Or am I lying in my Wikis that the param could be NPC -or- Spawn?

[Scatman]

It can be an NPC or Spawn

Your wiki's are safe

[John Adams]

AND! You're gonna get sick of me tonight.

Should we actually have a "type" definition in the scripts? I mean, I know the index has some sections - but can functions be used across script types?

Like, GetCurrentHP() can be in a SpawnScript AND a Spell script. Right?

Thinking of adding

Code: Select all

== Type ==
SpawnScripts

to the template. Thoughts?

[Scatman]

I don't think we need it. Any LUA function can be used in any script. The functions are defined for the LUA system as a whole and spell scripts, spawn scripts, zone scripts, <insert future script type here> will all pool, in a sense, from the same pool of LUA functions we define.

[John Adams]

So I can use GetCurrentHP(param) in a Quest script? I did not know this.

Here's another example format - adding a ToC and header.

Do you think the two Bold Headers will get confusing? That's how I originally did it, but thought they clashed. But we could put all the params right there up top that way.

[Scatman]

So I can use GetCurrentHP(param) in a Quest script? I did not know this.

Yep, or a zone script, absolutely. That's why scripts are nice because you can do anything we have to offer with the functions provided.

I think that looks good. The title with the parameters sticks out because it's right under the contents (at least to me )

[John Adams]

Ok I am done asking questions for now I will edit the existing, and post the template, so hopefully others will get inspired to fill in a few.

Thanks for the feedback as always.

I have started working on the lua functions wiki, I started at the top and went down skipping those that are not implemented. This is very time consuming but I am trying to do a few a day. If you notice any mistakes let me know so I can fix them.

Really helpful, thanks

[Jabantiz]

I was bored last night and didn't feel like coding so went through the wiki and documented the lua functions that had nothing, got a lot done last night so just went ahead and finished them off today.

All LUA Functions

All current lua functions should be on that page and documented now, I only did the pages that had nothing, didn't go through to update some of the older pages.

[John Adams]

I love it when you get bored. Great job.
