Zugg Software :: View topic - creating room and zone scripts from command line

Wanderer Joined: 03 May 2005 Posts: 72

I have observed that when I attempt to create a room or zone script from command line that another instance is made of the room or zone class that is separate from the map. The only way I have been able to create a room or a zone trigger is
1) right click the room or zone and edit zone script. This creates a new class under the map.
2) write the triggers on command line and save to a temporary class.
3) go to the temporary class and find the triggers and move to the class that was made by the mapper

I am not sure why somethig like #trigger {^You can't go that way} {#nomap;#nodir} Room3465
creates a new class that is not part of the map.

Because you are putting Room3465 where the class value goes

I'm not sure if there is a way to make a room/zone setting via script.
I am thinking this is because maps themselves were not designed to be shared in the package library, but settings in general are..

Have you considered using the onRoomEnter or onZoneEnter #EVENTs to toggle classes in your package?

I think that would be the ideal method, since I think roomscripts and the like was a feature they were trying to phase out.
