General Discussion / Toolset Scripting *looks angry and confused*

« on: December 30, 2005, 09:09:00 pm »

Well i have been starting some toolset scripting but i just cant figure it out. I know some basic C++ which has proven invaluable but i can figure out how to make it work. If there is anyone here who might know how to do this please help me. Since the people at Layo seemed to do such i fine job i was hoping for some help. I checked other sites and their search is HORRIBLE. Well here is the problem.

I cant figure out how to use Module variables. I dont even know what they are. Are they like a variable every PC gets when he joins the server? That was what i assumed. So i set a module int with name "Status" to 10. Then i made a trigger. on the "OnEnter" this is the code i put in.

void main()
{
object oPC = GetEnteringObject();
string sBla = IntToString(GetLocalInt(oPC,"Status"));
AssignCommand(oPC,SpeakString(sBla));
}
Why does my person say ""
That makes no sense! Its returning nothing. Shouldnt it be returning "hello"? Im near the end of my tolerance, please someone out there help me

Just for Fun / Math Challenge

« on: November 30, 2005, 06:49:00 pm »

Lets see how intelligent the people who play on Layo are (no offense intended, just a joke!)
Heres some good math.

This is kind of a test im putting on, post the number and the answer next to it. PM me if you want to know your score. I will then PM you the number of questions correct. (if it really bugs you i will tell you which ones you got wrong, but would prefer not to so everyone has the same chance)

It starts easy and gets more difficult as questions increase

Oh and please dont use a calculator, this is a paper and mind test.

1) Evaluate
43921
- 8754
------

2) What is two-thirds of sixty percent of half of seventy-five?



3) What values of z satisfy 2(3-4z)-3(3z-2) = 80?



4) When the digits of a two digit positive number are reversed, the resulting positive two digit number is 72 less than the origional number? What is the number?



5) What is the name foir a line segment in a triangle with endpoints on a vertex and the side opposite the vertex?



6) A well is dug in the shape of a right circular cylinder with radius of one meter and depth of fifty meters. What is the volume of cubic meters, of dirt in the well?




7) What is the sum of the squares of the roots of the equation p^3+2p^2+3p+4=0?
("^" means "to the power of")



8)Express the product of 345 base 8 and 67 base 8 in as a base 8 numeral.




9) What is the sum of the elements of  

[-2    5]^-1
[ 3  -7]
(with "^-1" i mean the inverse of the matrix. hint, hint)


10) A class of 13 students orders ice cream. The oprder is read over the phone to the ice cream store and clerk fills the order and delivers the ice cream to the class. The names of the studetns are not included in the order, just the number of cones of different flavors. There is only one flavor per cone for each student. The possible flavors are vanilla, chocolate, walnut, strawberry, and peach. How many different ice cream orders would be possible for this class?

That's it hope you enjoy it. Ill post a more challenging one if people actually participate in this one.
Hope you have fun, happy thinking!

Development Journals and Discussion / Flamming Fists of Dom

Today was an abseloute disaster. Leo and I decided to make a trip to Berhagen Mountains. We started gathering a party like we always do and we on our way. I knew it was going to be a disaster when i noticed that our party wasnt even close together or talking very much. So Defron,Leo,Shadoe and i decided to just do it on our own. We managed the first part but thats when Sy and her friend decided to finally cach up to us and charge the monsters. They escaped easily but the rest of the party almost died. Leo told them that it was reckles and to refrain from doing it again but they said it was "fun". Yes very fun. So deeper we go to these giant creatures that throw rocks, what is their plan? To charge with abseloutely no tactics. That was a mistake. Several more giants joined the frey and our fate was sealed. Defron was the first to die, then me, then Leo, then Shadoe, and lastly Sy. Leo and I wernt too happy about it so we decided to play some creatures. My deck beat his deck into the ground, he had no chance. But im sure he will improve. I want to start mining a little so i can make the jewlery that Alnusa asked for. I remeber some minor training with weapons and such from my father but i fear i need further develoment in using weapons and such. Im sure Shrubbery will help me since he is a rather skilled fighter. I hope to learn those skills rather quickly for i do not have much time.
