:help I need some scripting tutorials. I can't get to the Wiki so that's out of the question. Since I can come here the most ideal thing would be for Daxter to finishes his tutorials in the script library, if he has the time. If the aren't any good tutorials that I can get to could somebody put some scripts together for me? I'll put the map, all the scripts I want in it, and a note saying where things (like the invincable man) should go. Thank you. 
 
What is it you need help with. Can you use the compiler?

If you are using the scripts in the Script Library, most only need simple changes to get them to function.
 
Thank you so much. Now I can finish my map an hopefully upload it after improving the textures and edges of this map.  :D
 
Sorry about the double-post. Don't know if it's ok here or not. I'm trying to get the Invincible man script to work but I'm not sure how to put in the coordinates. Do I put it in like this, x: 1234, y:1234, z:1234, or some other way? (Note: not the actual coordinates) I'll be asking quite a few question because I'm new at this and the Wiki didn't seem to explain it very well...  :sorry
 
Yeah co-ordinates are 4 digits each, but can be 1, 2 or 3 digits aswell, so you can have 1, 12, 123, 1234. The Y co-ordinate is the altitude, so if you don't want a specific altitude to your object and just want it to be land-height, then use X-Z co-ordinates and leave the middle one out.  {1234, 1234} for example, instead of {1234,1234,1234}.
 
No letters specifying X, Y, or Z? Just the numbers, right? I also don't know if anything else in the invincible man script needs changed or not...
The script worked fine before I added it but when I did the load screen wouldn't go away.
 
The coordinates for that script are passed as a parameter when the script is called in the main file

Code: 
run background script ImmortalManScript(marker at {1482.64,1831.37})
 
I just can't it get it to work. The load screen goes down now but the man isn't where he should be. Nor does the unlocker/research script work. And the villagers just go at stay at the town center. Is villager activity done with scripts? Also if I attach the scripts in a zip can somebody look at it for me? Thank for your help.
 
Can you please post the code you're using?

For the villagers hiding under ther town ventre. You need to set the Nav Ribbon. This defines where they can and can't go.

It's the "N" in the top bar of the editor. It's a bit funky to use untill you get used to it. There should be a document on it in the Landscape Editor folder
 
I set the nav ribbon when I made the map. And here's the code.

:sorry I couldn't edit my last post. I checked the map in the editor and the nav ribbon is gone. I'm going to have to redo that...going to take a while.  :cmad
 
You need to run the other scripts from the main script.

Code: 
begin script MainScript
start
	run script NewScript
	run script ResearchStandardBuildings
	run background script ImmortalManScript	
	disable load screen
	set fade in time 1

end script MainScript

The ImmortalManScript is run as a background script since it needs to run continually. The other two need to run only once.
 
Oh.... Also, the imortal guy needs to be run as a background script?[br][br]Added: [time]1253061283[/time]I did that and it crashed the game...
