Action Scripts
Action scripts are small routines that are not really worth coding up as a plugin, but are otherwise very powerful and are executed on the server itself. They can be attached to any object in a region via Fiddle>Modify Actions, or by setting Properties that trigger on certain events. Only super-admins (i.e. Amanda) can create and edit the scripts.
Scripts are triggered in a number of ways.
On purchase from vendo - sets action to that of property defaultAction, after interval of property defaultActionTime
On pick up of item - ditto.
On dropping an item - sets action to that of property dropAction, after interval of property dropActionTime
On sitting on an item - sets action to that of property sitAction, after interval of property sitActionTime
On drinking a potion - if potionType is set to scriptnn where nn is the id of a script, immediately execute script (only tick delay). Properties potionDrinkSelf and potionDrinkOthers hold messages to display to the users.
Current scripts:
| 1 | Quax Carrot | Used in pick-up. Turns item into a carrot if your avatar id is Quax or Qbota. :D | |
| 2 | Fat Potion | Used by potions. Sets you as a.WholesomeFem.img for a while. (Buggy) | |
| 3 | Dead plant | Used in pick-up. Sets plant as dying, then 15s triggers “delete object | |
| 4 | Delete object | Deletes current item. | |
| 5 | Talking objects | Provides chatter from items named “toucan”, “barkeeper”, “frog” or “lincoln” | |
| 6 | Move sideways | Moves item backwards and forwards across the screen, 3px every 30s | |
| 7 | Worms alive | Provides animations and breeding for worms.. | |
| 8 | Fix item | (Used in drop) Swaps Glued to Immobile and removes Engravable flag | |
| 9 | Mark glued | Warns user then sets to run “glue when dropped” | |
| 10 | Glue when dropped | Used in drop. Glues item down, then sets to run “fix item” after 5 mins | |
| 11 | Group spawner | set property “spawngroup”. This then acts like a regular spawner, but only one location for all items with the same value will be allowed to spawn an item. | |
| 12 | old version of #7 | do not use | |
| 13 | LarryWet | Chatter for Larry if it's raining. | |
| 14 | Fairy Potion | used by potions. Makes you a fairy for a while. Buggy. | |
| 15 | skeleton potion | used by potion or sit. Turns you into a skeleton for a while |
