I can't find it for the life of me. God knows. I found some early test scripts when I was developing and prototyping it.

Basically what it does is check each 8x8 block by tile scanning a "strip" or line of 8 tiles in both X and Y directions. It looks for "impassable rock" tiles.

So if it either starts on "impassable rock, and then a few tiles later finds grass, or starts on grass (or whatever) and then finds "impassable rock", it figures out which way the wall is facing. And since it scans both X and Y, it can get all four cardinal directions. Then once that resource grid is mined dry, it follows the wall along and scans the next resource grid in the same way.

Now, if it DOESN'T find "impassable rock" in the next resource grid, then obviously the wall turned, so it scans the grids to the sides of the current one and finds out where the wall has gone. If the wall was going north-south, it'll try the resource grids east and west of the current one and vice versa.

It's a bit hard to explain... Sorry. I'll go through my backup drive over the weekend and find it.

I was working on a mining script before I left, not sure if you guys already have something similar or if there's any interest in it.

What it does is scan tiles and figures out where the mountain wall is, pathfinds to it, mines, and moves to the next 8x8 block. It will follow the edge of the mountain regardless of shape, completely automagically. All you need to do is have a rune marked next to a mountain, it'll recall there, mine until full, recall back and dump ingots. I think it's even got smelt on beetle support. But it's far from finished, a lot of hardcoded stuff that I used for testing and so on.

Is this something the community here would be interested in? Has it been done already? Mainly talking to the resident scripters since you need to be able to read and understand the script to make use of it in it's current shape.

I resubbed, just to check out what was lost when my house fell, see how bad it was...

So, I had a box full of crystaline essences and Berserker's Scythes, from the last two events that I played lots during, which are now worth a crapton of points in the cleanup. So bummer...
Had probably 20+ heartwood bowcrafting kits, and a few assorted other runics, all gone. And of course my chest of gear for my main chars is gone. My set of renewal flutes, all my archer's bows (a couple of which I've been offered 20+ mill for)... mega bummer.
And I think I was moving checks between characters or something so they were all in the house, because I can't find almost any gold in their banks. Fffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

So that's where I'm at now, all 90% complete chars, all with ok suits, no weapons, no runics to craft any new ones, no gold and no house.


Is anyone here ultra stinking filthy rich, and happens to play Pac?

I'm sure we'll both have fun. This is honestly a good thing. You'll go class and object encapsulation nuts, and I'll be an old school procedural programmer nazi. Both ways work, and it expands the community's overall knowledge Yay for diversity. (obviously  classes suck and you're wrong...)

Updated:
Fixed the typo and made it loop until you hit "No" on the ID message box.

Old EUO:
SET %timeout #SCNT2 + 2500
...
IF #SCNT2 > %timeout
  do stuff

How do we achieve the same functionality as simply as possible in OEUO? Least amount of code lines wins!

timeout = getticks() + 2500
...
if getticks() > timeout do
  stuff
... BRAINFART, sorry >.<

Yeah just slap a "while true" around the main body. I'll do that and change the message box to an ok/cancel so you can stop it.

Now how do you read the return from a message box?...
