Idea is from: Marsh

Pro Scripter [1/5]

Code:

Place this script in a new case in ScriptedItems or in a hotkey I don't mind where you put it (this example is with ScriptedSpell):

Sub ScriptedSpell(index, Script)
Dim Flying
Select Case Script
    Case 0
        Flying= GetVar("Fly.ini", GetPlayerName(index), "Flying")
        If Flying = 1 Then
            Call PutVar("Fly.ini", GetPlayerName(index), "Flying", 0)
            Call SetPlayerClass(index, GetVar("FlyData.ini", GetPlayerName(index), "NormalClass"))
            Call SetPlayerSprite(index, GetVar("FlyData.ini", GetPlayerName(index), "NormalSprite"))
        Else
            Call PutVar("Fly.ini", GetPlayerName(index), "Flying", 1)
            Call PutVar("FlyData.ini",GetPlayerName(index), "NormalClass", GetPlayerClass(index))
            Call PutVar("FlyData.ini", GetPlayerName(index), "NormalSprite", GetPlayerSprite(index))
            Call SetPlayerClass(index, GetVar("FlyConfig.ini", "Config", "FlyClass"))
            Call SetPlayerSprite(index, GetVar("FlyConfig.ini", "Config", "FlySprite"))
        End If
End Select
End Sub

Create an INI called "FlyConfig.ini" (without the "")
Place the next in it:
FlyConfig.ini

[Config]
FlyClass=#
FlySprite=$

Replace # with the class which is the fly class. Places where you only can fly, put there class blocks.
Replace $ with the sprite which is the fly sprite. If you activated the flying then your sprite will change to this, when you deactivated it then you will change back to normal.

Done.

Function:
This lets players fly :D.

How does it work? 

*Update*
Now understand...
Thats becouse of my bad knowladge of English sorry :(

[Dalfo]

mmmmmh

must already be scripted item or spells in souces to make it works ?  :

[Mr Ryppers]

regretfully I'm no scripter.. how would we apply this to a hotkey? so it responds to a button like shift does for running?
would it be possible to have it so it activates flying at one press.. and deactivates when pressed again (instead of deactivating when it is let go like running)

seems to me like hotkeying like this'd be excellent for simple things like sitting down..  just make the 'fly class' have sprites that are sitting down, and reduce the speed of the class to 0 so you couldn't move. just make sure you don't have the class available on the login screen (would that be changing 'locked' to 1 on the class file?).

[Godlord]

wtf are you saying go read my tutorial "Sadscript: the beginning" and open your main.txt before ever posting I am very confused now.

[Mr Ryppers]

ok.. ok.. with your permission godlord I'd like to play around with your code a bit.. see if I can get it to do what I want it to do before I try re-iterating myself.

[Godlord]

You may modify it but not publicy it as your own made even if you modified it.

[Steveo]

Yes scripting can be confusing.

It is a highly technical subject.

To get scripting to work you must have experience with  the  "Main.as  file  and where to put things.

The script you put in must be exactly correct or it won't work

In your Server the Scripts function must be turned "on"

I myself think all Scripts submitted must show every step from what exactly the Script does, what exactly it will say, where exactly it is placed in the Main.as file, and finally what exactly to do "in game" to get the script to do its thing ( Hot keys, or Scripted tile, or type in a code...etc...)


I put up a Scripting Tutorial on my site, but it is far from perfect, I will be writing a new Tutorial that takes you through every step with clear and simple instructions  ( for nooby scripters)

BTW  Eclipse Evolution the new game engine has built into it many things that previously were possible only through manual scripting...(ex. Quests) Yaaay!

[Godlord]

The scripting was not confusing, what the person said was confusing. I think you need to read my reply again.

[Danz]

He asked if the script could be activated and deactivated by hotkeys

[Godlord]

Yes, he can.

[wilikas2]

I don't understand, what are the class files. I tried this and it does not work.

[Godlord]

class1.ini as example. Classes. :

[lordjeremiahs]

what exactly does it do? change the sprite? or just.. make the sprite look bigger and make a shadow below it? or get past through blocked tiles?

[Carnival]

what exactly does it do? change the sprite? or just.. make the sprite look bigger and make a shadow below it? or get past through blocked tiles?

It makes it so that only the class listed in Fly.ini can pass through the tile.

[HaleBlazR]

Thats actually pretty good scripting.  Pretty good idea too.  I kinda did that, but with guild, see, game developers guild can walk everywhere

[Godlord]

See next to my name stands "Über Scriptorz" lol, explains enough 8). This scripts changes your class and your sprite. To something which is flying. You can also return to normal ;D.

Edit: Saw that there wasn't a sprite change but whatever I will make it later then .

[blitz_9100]

this is a great script but it only makes me walk in place:(


what did i do wrong?

[Godlord]

yea you need the sprite change part for it. This was normally meant for flying but can be used for other stuff.

Edit: I added sprite changing to it .

[Skieth]

this is proboly a stupid question but, couldn't you just make a flying class and put a class block on the places you wanted to let it fly, and if you wanted it really fancy just put something saying "you jump off the ground and start flying"?
