[kai0ty]

whoa, thats a lot to ask in one post. what are u tryin to do first map, mod?

[gunpowder]

im tryin to script mosly then move on to modding

[kai0ty]

well move on might not be right, since they are completely different. start off with bjarnes scripting tut, then ask more specific questions. (the tut is stickiyed at the top of the section)

[lizardkid]

also pm bjarne about his Wiki, there are good tuts there that help put into context what certain syntax and commands would be used for. check out all the tuts here too.

Maybe if you start with a simple idea and then ask how can I do this then maybe little by little you will pickup on the language and know what is possible . Also reading the game scripts will help .

im trying to make a mod tht is an invisible room wat no 1 can see and wen u go in it no one can see you is this possible:)

[lizardkid]

oh, i think you have mod and scripting messed up.

a mod (as defined by here) is when you make something totally unrelated using the MOHAA programming. like a paintball mod. or a vietnam mod.

scripting is as you think it is....
but since my attempts at remaking the stock maps have blown my MOHAA sp and ai.scr i wouldn't suggest it.

Here is a link to my Wiki: The Rjukan project it conains lots of tutorials related to scripting, where the most relevant for you is perhaps: The MOH:AA Script language tutorial.

im trying to make a mod tht is an invisible room wat no 1 can see and wen u go in it no one can see you is this possible:)

this could be done by making the whole room and script_object, targetname it invisible_room.

Next make a trigger_multiple where you want the room to become invisible and targetname and setthread it room_off_trigger

then on the other other side of this make another trigger_multiple, targetname and setthread of room_on_trigger. Next onto scripting:

Code: Select all

level waittill prespawn
level waittill spawn

room_off_trigger:

$invisible_room hide

end

room_on_trigger:

$invisible_room show

end
