I'm just in the middle of writing my first script and would like to add a few snippets. Why re event the wheel but I don't want to use them until I understand completely what I am using. An example is I want to make sure my backpack is open and if it is not open to open it to a set position. TM has this snippet that works perfect
gosub TM_CheckBackpack 200 200
sub TM_CheckBackpack
namespace push
namespace local CP
set !cnt %0
set !x %1
set !y %2
finditem * C_ , #BACKPACKID
if #FINDKIND = -1
{
event macro 8 7 ; open backpackid
gosub GumpAndSizeWait container_gump 230_204
if !cnt > 0
{
contpos !x !y
wait 10
}
}
namespace pop
return
Its the set !cnt %0 line. What is the value of %0? I used the search button but didn't find what I was looking for. Thanks in advance!

It's how many arguments your sending to the sub...
gosub somesubroutine one two three four five
that would result a %0 of 5 because you sent 5 arguments to the sub.
gosub somesubroutine cerv really rox
that would result in %0 being 3 because of the 3 arguments sent.
-
%0 is the value of the number of criteria you send a sub. For example if you say:
gosub sub1 %Value %Value2 %Value3
you are sending three values thus %0 = 3
Hope that helps.

<edit> I see Cerv beat me to it LOL. Oh well, there's two examples for ya!

He so sloooow... heh
gosub
The gosub command transfers the execution to a sub with the name given by the parameter.
gosub sub_name
Parameters can be added after the sub name. They will be transfered in the variables %1, %2, and so on. The variable %0 holds the number of parameters passed.

LOL, ahhh parameters was the word I was having a hard time thinking of so I said values. Feels like a Monday.

See I learned them as arguments.
9. Computers. a variable in a program, to which a value will be assigned when the program is run: often given in parentheses following a function name and used to calculate the function.
# Within the script, we refer to the first argument as $1, the second argument as $2, and so on

Thanks for the quick response. I kinda thought that is what it was but was stumped by the
If !cnt > 0 line. Since !cnt is set to 2 it will always be greater then 0. When will it ever fail? If it can never fail why have it?
-
Because one could call the sub with no arguments thus the backpack would still get opened but not moved to !x !y.

Fug me! That almost seems obvious. Need to stop thinking of the specific use of the sub I could use it for and more a general sense of what the sub can be used for. The whole "What if" thing.
Thanks again for all the help!

hmm, I didn't realize that you could pull the value of 0% either. Nice way to control the performance of a sub that accepts varying numbers of arguments/parameters/values/whatevers.
