Development Forum old norn killer .cos file    biohaze      5/26/2008 Hey yall i was wondering if anyone could help me with this ENUM 4 0 0 doif cage <= 4 TARG norn DEAD NEXT for some reason i get the error token "next" next with enum/ETC... but this works: ENUM 4 0 0 TARG norn DEAD NEXT Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/26/2008 If you've got a doif statement, don't you need an endi statement to close it off? My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/26/2008 Yes thank you but now the doif anit working lol no error just wont kill lol Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/26/2008 Well, where did you put the ENDI command? Before or after the NEXT? My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/26/2008 ENUM 4 0 0 DOIF CAGE <= 4 TARG norn DEAD ENDI NEXT o ya and it only kills the norn i have selected Grow Shrooms   biohaze   5/26/2008 P.s. doif cage <=4 wont kill but doif cage >= 4 will kill eggs and other norns WTF Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/26/2008 Please use the little yellow pencil button to edit your posts rather than double-posting. In a doif statement, we have different options: EQ = (equal) NE <> (not equal) GT > (greater than) GE >= (greater than or equal to) LT < (less than) LE <= (less than or equal to) Have you tried using the letters rather than the symbols? Also, looking at my CAOS documentation (you can get this by following the instructions on the Creatures Wiki), it seems that the NORN command sets TARG to the current norn, which undoes the ENUM, which makes the TARG apply to all norns. Try removing NORN from your code and seeing what happens. My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/26/2008 DOIF CAGE GE 4 yes i tried that the command goes completely red and wont work still for some reason when i inject this cos it kill whatever i have selected no matter the age and wont search out another creature Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/26/2008 Try enum 4 0 0 doif cage ge 5 dead endi next as far as I can tell, life stage 4 is the adult stage, not the old stage. My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/26/2008 AHHH it works your a life saver lol the problem was the targ norn command Thank you so much you will get some credit lol Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/26/2008 Lol, thanks, I think. XD So what's this master code for? My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/26/2008 since wolf mate screws up your breeding norns my GWR group wanted me to just make a basic code to kill old norns but since i have made the basic cos script i am probally gonna make an image for it with connections so you can hook it up to a timer or im just going to put in a caos timer and let it just be: ject "old.cos" 4 Probally the later but who knows i got sometime on my hands befor i go back to college Grow Shrooms   biohaze   5/27/2008 Ight so i gusse i still need help!!! lol Ok i spent some time trying to get an image with it but said screw it so im makeing a background agent The only problem is i cant get the timer to work. When i gave up on that i tried to Loop Wait 5000 Ever This crashes the game so can anyone help me with my timer cause i didnt expect the loop to crash my game lol heres what i got so far: inst loop enum 4 0 0 doif cage ge 5 dead kill targ endi next wait 100 ever This loop command will not work and i have tried: inst tick 1000 enum 4 0 0 doif cage ge 5 dead kill targ endi next P.s. does anyone know how to make a agent that has a classifer but still runs in the background with no image to deal with in the caos file so i can still use the remove agent? Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/27/2008 Hum, I don't know. At least you've got the basic code right (the bit that kills all your oldies) so that it can be injected as you please. Have you seen Vampess' useful scripts? She's written one which removes dead bodies quicker than normal. My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/27/2008 ya i got that but its for wolfing runs so our group can leave their comps running in fast tick for a couple of days and it will speed it up i will try looking at other agents for ideas Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/27/2008 Have you considered making it into a toy? So that every time the toy's pushed, the killing script fires? My TCR Norns   biohaze   5/29/2008 no it needs to be automatic Grow Shrooms   Malkin Manager     5/29/2008 A toy is perhaps more doable than an automatic checker, though. Alternately, you could investigate object variables and the WAIT command. My TCR Norns   Mad Scientist clohse     5/30/2008 I have made several invisible agents that I use as emitters and to control environmental agents mostly. You just use the image "blnk.c16" found with DS in Images. The image 1 will show your agent as a red box. Use that to position it where ever you want it to be and then switch it to use image 0, the black box. Code suggestions: Place the tick 1000 up in the install instead of in the timer and try it without the inst. CLohse's Norns at the Creatures Repository
