See through a Gm's eyes! - Galens - 01-10-2008

Everyone says Dev's/Gm's are lazy, don't do nuttin, etc. Well I am here to prove you wrong. I spent 6 hours with a half as hard programming system then what the gm's use, just to finally perfect this simple script with no bugs.

I seriously spent 6 hours on this. Code has to be perfect. I drank 4 cups of coffee, ate 5 burritos, and smoked a pack of cigarettes.......

Code:

#ends with .py Example: Practice.py, then save as python file py, pyw, txt. After that, go back to the IDLE (GUI) and -

#hit file, open, and open the file you saved. Now, have fun and enjoy. Do not feel hesitant about editing the script, its a -

This was my first attempt at programming a basic program, with Python, ever. I've only been studying Python for.. 3 days now? Its fairly easy to learn, but a damn cranky ***** if you're not careful.

I hope this program will inspire the other community members to delve into programming.

huh!

whats that lol.

As i have been reading... RunUO can be coded by C#

from "runuo . com" forums i read:

"If you understand C# you won't need a RunUO scripting guide since, its C# and there is no difference between the two."

galen if you know what youre doing. that is nothing...

See through a Gm's eyes! - Galens - 01-10-2008

I understand Run UO is C script.

For studying on and off in Python for 3 days, and doing 1 major attempt, accomplishing it all in 6 hours, is pretty damn good.

If its nothing to you, I really hope you participate with the scripting of the shard. It would be nice to have more developers.

RunUO is C# or Visual Basic, and that code would have taken like 15 minutes ;/

Hahah! I knew it!

Heh Let the man be proud. I remember when I wrote my fist PHP script.. I was so proud.. Ofcause it was just a simple script like the one Calens posted hehe

It's good for his first attempt, give him some credit.

Good work Galens, keep on programming! :]

Yea good job on teaching yourself how to do it.

Seriously bro, good job. Keep it up, I would have never been able to make that up, i just started learning advanced injection scripting, hopefully i get to learn some cool stuff :icon_twisted:.

I got access to the scripts over break, I must say I agree with Galen. Having little experience and trying to learn it is a bit overwhelming, I've already made a few minor changes and will continue to work on it, but its a vast difference between me looking at the scripts with little experience and nasir looking at them with a lot of experience.

Unfortunately my minor changes aren't going to help development much.

Visual Basic?? OMG Worst shit ever invented. Not even portable.

For a really really good introduction to Python programming, go to google and search for:

A Byte of Python

This is a very useful tutorial, extremely easy to understand.

What I found the most interesting, is that, that specific way I wanted to run that, I couldn't figure it out for the longest time. I edited that script so many freakin times to see what worked and what didn't. It was more experimental and learning, than for show. Now that I look at it, I was like, omfg, I cannot believe I didn't think of that before.

A lot of it that was added, was purely experimental to find the way I can push those structures and functions. That is what took me so long. I didn't want to make a few inputs, that would have been the VERy easy part. I wanted to see if I could give all of it some.. intelligence, rather than what I had previously scripted. It worked out.

The hardest part of the entire program, was getting it to recognize, that a player can buy more than 1 of the same item, until the gold runs out. I plan to modify it even further calling defines to make the script even shorter, using some other functions aswell. That shouldn't take long at all though. I also plan to modify it for a value over 0 gold after you buy what you want, and tell python I want it to either have more items to buy, or an option to leave the store. That is kind of tricky using the basics though. We'll see.
