<p>Andares: </p> <hr /> <div>NPC scripting (noun) is the act of creating (verb) an NPC using [[GScript]].<br /> <br /> This is normally done in the Level Editor or the NC/NPC-Control portion of RC.<br /> <br /> There are three types of NPC scripting:<br /> <br /> ''NPC scripting''<br /> ''Weapon scripting''<br /> ''Class scripting''<br /> <br /> ----<br /> <br /> == NPC Scripting ==<br /> <br /> An NPC, or Non-Playing Character, is a scripted object in a level, or on a server. This may take the form of a mysterious old man who leads you to a quest, or a light that you can turn on by clicking it. They add detail to the level; however, they must be used sparingly because they generate lots of lag.<br /> <br /> == Weapon Scripting ==<br /> <br /> A weapon, defined in Graal terms, is an NPC that does not appear in a level or on a server; it is carried with the client. Weapons are mainly [[clientside]]. Examples of weapons include GUI's, swords, modified playerlists, and other things that apply to a player. Weapons may also be used as hacker detection devices.<br /> <br /> == Class Scripting ==<br /> <br /> A class is a script that is &quot;included&quot; in other scripts. They are used to unify level NPCs by making sure no alterations are performed (E.g., a coke machine works the same way in every level), and to add scripting functions to weapons and NPCs.</div>
