hi it's me and my questions again

i read the doc about script language but only have sample for make item.

it is possible with script language to make some "macro" ?
like a script who put 1000 random object tree on a zone
or another who , for each objet name like "corridor" , put an mech object torch and a light source at each "corridor"+10 loc

I'm sorry..I dont understand your question(s).

What scripting language are you referring to and what are you trying to do?

Mhhh, we are on openzone section.
Saveus speak about object scripted language in OZ

hi,

iirc, OZ script language is not intended for complex scripting, and does not allow 'macros'.
You can however conditionally (if / else, while, ...) call sub-scripts. This may be a fair way for a start

i hope this helps.

Cannot really help here, never used OZ scripts myself, sorry.

The scripting language is really meant for customizing how a single object appears (e.g. a staircase, torch, chair, or any single object you can think of), not for creating more than one object at a time. As such it can't place objects from the mesh library and it doesn't have a random() function. Writing a script can be really hard for beginners, but the nice thing is that you only have to do it once and then everyone can benefit.
