  • For Honour Update

    From apam@21:1/125 to All on Thu Nov 1 13:20:18 2018
    Hi

    I've been working on my for honour door game today. I've just sent a new version to be hatched sometime.

    New in this version is "Other Places" lua scripted IGMs.

    Included is a basic "Two-Up" script that allows you to gamble your gold.

    I don't expect everyone will race out and write IGMs, but if they want to
    they can. There's no documentation on it, if you want to know what
    functions are available have a look in otherplaces.c it has all the ones implemented so far (Look in lua_push_cfunctions, also look in twoup.lua
    to get an idea).

    A lua script for For Honour starts with the following comment lines

    --name: Name of IGM
    --author: Your name
    --version: Version of mod

    The name is used in the other places menu, the others are used on the
    version info screen. Anything with the .lua extension inside the scripts
    folder will be loaded as an IGM, regardless of if you put those comment
    lines or not.

    If you want to write an IGM and need more functions, let me know and I'll
    look at adding them for the next version.

    Thanks. I was sure I put WIN32 in the win32 version's file_id.diz, but I
    guess I didn't. Oops :)

    Quoting apam to All <=-

    New in this version is "Other Places" lua scripted IGMs.

    Installed and working fine over here on the pi BBS. I'm not adding
    anything new to the Ezycom side unless you specificaly ask me to try
    a win32 native version of something. :)

    A lua script for For Honour starts with the following comment lines

    I don't get lua. :) But I wouldn't write an IGM anyway as I don't have
    time to do anything. Currently working 6 days a week with 1 double shift
    so 7 days a week! ;)

    If you want to write an IGM and need more functions, let me know and
    I'll look at adding them for the next version.

    I will be looking into lua though, I have it "on the list" and have since
    you released Magicka.

    Thanks for this. I haven't done much LUA scripting at all, but it'd be neat
    to check it out, especially as I have For Honour on my BBS. :)

    Cool! You're welcome, if you come up with anything let me know - or need any additional functions added, I figure I'd add them as I go rather than try to anticipate everything.

    No harm. :) Feel free to send me an updated file with the revised .diz and I can send it out to update the one already hatched if you like.
