GScript Wiki

As a more in-depth scripting resource than the GraalBible, I have created a GScript-specific wiki. It aims to provide a more detailed, organised and human set of documents related to the scripting engine. I hope to provide more PHP Manual-like documentation. The wiki is hosted on my VIP space: http://skyld.vip.graal.net/.

This is far from complete. Therefore, it would be nice if you would contribute some of your knowledge in order to create a more complete set of documents.

Page index

Quick category links:

I would like to remind people that there is still much to be documented and that any help in doing so would be appreciated.

Finally a wiki that isn't a wanna-be wikipedia for Graal! I welcome this effort, and if I find something to add, I'll add it. I was thinking of doing this, but I'm glad someone has more patience than me XD

Well if you know how some functions work, or some events, etc, then you know enough to add to it. ^^

Thumbs up Skyld, I'll do my best to contribute!

Skyld

Started to add more referential material (for example, information on sendtext/requesttext) and will start to add more detailed documentation on things.

Things like functions and events still need documenting, so contribute your knowledge!

HTML Code:

requesttext("weaponlist", NULL); - retrieves the weapon list from the server (Client-RC)

With such commands, does this mean you can only retrieve this list if you're using Client-RC? How would one detect the use of Client-RC if so?

Just edit the URL to point to the new page that you're making by changing the name after ?wakka=.

Edit: I added a new box on the homepage to allow the easy creation of pages. :)

I think most of these will only work if you have Client-RC enabled. Simply speaking before you can use Client-RC, you must try and open a session:

PHP Code:


		
			
requesttext("clientrc", 1);

If you are successfully connected to Client-RC, you'll get a response back:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onReceiveText(temp.texttype, temp.textoption, temp.textlines)
{
  switch (temp.texttype)
  {
    case "clientrc":
    {
      if (temp.textoption == 1)
      {
        // clientrc is working
      }
        else
      {
        // clientrc is not working; the error is sent in temp.textlines
      }

      break;
    }
  }
}

Updated some things recently:

Added a small navigation box on the homepage to take you to major sections in the Wiki. When there are more articles available, I will work on constructing more detailed index pages with lists of things and short descriptions, instead of relying on the category system for finding everything.
Attachment 39388
Added quite a few new articles, and also edited some older ones in order to provide more information.

Pretty much, what's needed:

More information being added to the existing pages, which will help people better understand and use functionality, for example, more details and examples being put into the Notes section of pages.
New pages containing information about functions, events, variables and such which have not yet been documented. In order to create a complete resource, more things must be documented!
Reference materials and tutorials which will walk people through basic scripting stepping stones, and explain more advanced functionality to those who are more competent.

See here for information on contributing.

So far, a large amount of the documentation has been written by myself. It would be nice to see some other scripters in the community contributing; it would be appreciated, since lacking documentation is what people complain most about!

Nice updates :D

Finally got around to adding a more useful page index (http://skyld.vip.graal.net/wikka.php?wakka=PageIndex), which provides a list of relevant documents on the wiki (commands, events, references, etc) and short descriptions to make finding documents easier. I am not certain as to whether this would be a better homepage or not.

Twinny

02-01-2007 08:45 PM

That homepage could be a bit confusing to new people. Atleast it isn't automatically updated ^^.

Perhaps a lovely "New people click here!" link ^^.

Well, this isn't the current homepage. I wasn't sure if it would be a sensible idea editing something like this into the homepage or not, however I felt it was necessary to have a more useful index to accompany the category system.

There are a lot of people here that know enough to contribute; it would be nice to see some people doing so! A lot of the documents that are in place can be expanded on with more behavioural details or examples, and people can feel free to add other scripting articles/pages related to functions, etc.

The wiki has been gone for a while now so all you have left is the graal bible and my pile of poo website

A damn shame.

I accredit this ex-wiki to being the staple source I used when I was learning the basics and the nuances of GS2.

I wish it was still here, so I could use it to relearn them again.

RIP.

it was a vip.graal host,
CJ removed VIP hosts, so no more skyld wiki

Codein

I've got a good free webhost. If we could get a team of developers interested, I'll set a wiki up. If anyone's interested in helping me out, PM me or contact me on AIM or MSN.

If Skyld wanted to continue the thing he could have run it on the former graal wiki host.

I shall see about getting a backup of the SQL database and the wikka files and perhaps someone can reupload it somewhere new, if unixmad has kept backups of it.

If Unixmad made any backups, I am a domain I can host it on to. I set up WikkaWikki on it today, actually. I'm able to access some pages through the Internet Archive, but not everything, so a backup of Skyld's wiki would be neat.

I sent a PM to Darlene, asking permission to post the URL. I could always post it in the Lounge, though, first. :)
