Ehrm... I have several parts of script which all control or run different events... any chance I can sort my script and get a clean and clear looking script ?

Again, I have no idea how to do it and the example scripts I did check, had different ideas of tidying up the place.

Can I create a thread for every part of the script and just call the threads ?

Code: Select all

thread boat_prep
thread lift_prep
//thread door_prep
thread doorsign_prep
//thread spawn_prep
thread bind_prep

And after waittill spawn:

Code: Select all

//*** Boatrock
boat_prep:
while (1)
{
self time 4
self rotateyup 4
self rotatezup 4
self rotatexdown 2
self waitmove
self time 4
self rotateydown 4
self rotatezdown 4
self rotatexup 2
self waitmove
self time 4
self rotateydown 4
self rotatezdown 4
self rotatexup 3
self waitmove
self time 4
self rotateyup 4
self rotatezup 4
self rotatexdown 3
self waitmove
}
end
//*** END Boatrock

//*** Elevator

Now I might be way off... but still trying to understand it all.

The lift and the boatrock don't work with the current script (above) so my attempt at cleaning up the script could be a little too straightforward.

i seen a couple threads i didnt see called,like liftup and liftdown.or are these called by a trigger like setthread?
if not u need to call them at the top also or have it called by another thread.
only other thing i seen was the waitmove after the boat prep.

omg... that's it !

was it really that obvious? Wow im a genious!

I think if the boats are script_objects you need to do:
$boat1 thread boat_prep
$boat2 etc.
... instead of only calling the thread. Since you're using "self" in the thread, the script has to know first which entity is going to be affected. At least that's what I would think.

Also, in the boat_prep thread you don't need to specify the "time" again and again if you don't change it.

Static Model into script_object ?
