Is there any differnce in the Scription Reference (
http://www.grimrock.net/modding_log1/sc ... reference/)?
I tried to reward a character with a small XP Bonus for an Action. I created a script and tried to call the character but all i receive is an error message.
Code: Select all
function finishedRiddle()
party:getChampion(1):gainExp(100)
end
All i get is
'attempt to call method 'getChampion' (a Nil value)'.
It was working in Grimlock 1 but in Grimlock 2 it's not working anymore.
Did the function name change?

A lot of things on the scripting side have changed. We're working on updating the modding guide and scripting reference

With the component system, you need to also query for the specific component on an entity first. This is just a complete random post from work, but something like...
Code: Select all
party.party:getChampion(1):gainExp(100);
Might do it!

Not sure, but as i seen in the dungeon.lua ( I'm actually manually converting some datas from LoG to LoG2 ) that most of item's option are coded in class form like :
Code: Select all
spawn("torch_holder",14,15,3,0,"torch_holder_1")
torch_holder_1.controller:setHasTorch(true)
spawn("tomb_stairs_down",15,13,0,0,"tomb_stairs_down_1")
tomb_stairs_down_1.stairs:setTeleportTarget(2,16,17,0)
So JohnWordsworth, I think it'll be more like :
party.champion:gainExp(100);
After all, we can look while AH implement the reference part of the website ^^

Great ! I'm already playing with the editor in order to create a mod
. I know, I should play the game before, but I can't fight with myself on this matter...
Do you have by any chance a release date for this updated guide ?
