Tutorials??

[fierop]

Hey guys, would there be any chance of say some advanced scripting tutorials or even samples being published for the authoring kit?

We could probably write 1000 sample scripts and still not cover everything that HL can do. So perhaps you could outline exactly what types of scripts you're seeking examples for. Then we can either write an an appropriate example or point you to a script that already exists as a good example. Tell us what you need and we'll do our best to provide it.

Adding Half Level and Ability Modifier

I have this script for a custom ability (activated, counter)

#trkmax[cArdDram] += (hero.child[aINT].value/2)

and cant figure it out....

hero.child[aINT].field[aModValue].value/2 for the INT bonus / 2 or hero.child[aINT].field[aFinalVal].value/2 for the final value / 2.

You'll also want to round that down:

round(hero.child[aINT].field[aFinalVal].value/2, 0, -1)

round (thing to round, 0 decimals, round down)

In the editor, press help - that will give you the editor manual. There's a "Reference Information" page there that will give you information like this.

For future reference, please post questions that apply to specific game systems in the forum for that game system, rather than the authoring kit forum (which is for creating new game systems with the authoring kit).

Thanks!

Will post under the PF forum although may be valid for any game system.
