what do you mean by test for functions?

you make functions like this

NPC Code:

---

if(created)

  dostuff();

function dostuff(){

  //coding

}

---

i understood how to do fuctions but what i was unsure of was how to test using 'if' and i found out now ....

NPC Code:

---

if (actionMining) {

//commands

}

you didnt know how to use if?? j/k that looks like it would be used with triggeraction, a flag that starts with action is usually cause by triggeraction from another npc

Or you could be weird and start all your flags with 'action'...Just for the fun of it, you understand.

while on functions.. i am not sure.. on Q basic a funcition does its action and returns a value but on graal useing a function is just like putting the whole function script there.. so it does it all right.. do you guys understand what i am saying..

NPC Code:

---

if (playerenters) {

i dont think thats even possible, just dont make the function occur until you want it to

I'll have to agree with you on that...

Nyght, heres an example:

if you use oh, say this:
if (playertouchsme) {
talk();
}

function talk() {
message Hello.;
sleep 3;
message ;
}
its the exact same thing as using this, the only difference is readability, and some performance issues:

if (playertouchsme) {
message Hello.;
sleep 3;
message ;
}

Got it?
