Help, With scripts ?

Post by Russell Ellsworth »

How do you know that scripts are running and which are not. And how do you turn off ones you started but want to change. I don't know how to read what all the different scripts actually do, Is there some way to find that out ? I read and printed the readme files, but they have either different abriviations on the readme then the script list can display. I finally got my computer upgraded video card and the game is really different looking and running great thanks to Moggy2 that Dude knows his stuff ! All of you folks are great in helping and I try not to ask to many Dumb questions and read almost all of the things in forum, but There's like 108 different pagess and I just thought I'd ask.. Thanks in advance ...... Live long and Party !

It can be difficult to tell if a script is actually running. Each one does something different and it's difficult to say this is what to look for to see if scripts are running in general.
There is a screen in the script editor that lists what scripts have been run, and which ones are still running, but I find that difficult to scan for a particular script.

Best thing I can suggest is to read the readmes to see if the say what to look out for if the script is running. and if in doubt ask about specific scripts to see what you should be watching for.

Hey, Moggy2 You was right with the advice on my 1.4 upgrade problem can not thank you enough !!! I have some cool scripts running now and just didn't want to break the thing again... :lol: The scripts with the init. (something ) in the beginning start when you start up? If I load any of my saved games from that messed up time can they mess up my current set-up. I mean that if I had some scripts that conflicted in the game. That's why I asked about that question , I was on page 94 reading some of the other forum inputs . Thanks for being a cool person that Actually helps others ! AGAIN Thanks

all scripts that start with init.*, setup.* and al.plugin.* will load autoatmically when you load a game, as long as the save game has been modifed, ie the Scirpt Editor being enabled in the game.
