SRL Archive - News and General

Hey guys, I have a question.

Does each individual script handle randoms in a unique way, or is there like an central SRL method to handling them?

You see, for many of the scripts I use randoms always kill me or break my axehead, and I do understand why. And for gods sake don't tell me download SRL or SCAR includes because I have!

Please, enlighten me. :)

Fine i'll be the one to help i'm showing you the basic find random stuff.

procedure FindRandoms;
begin
  FindTalk;
  FindFastRandoms;
  FindNormalRandoms;
  FindLamp('Woodcutting');
  SolvePinball;
  if (FindFight) then
  begin
    MakeCompass('N');
    RunTo('N', True);
    Wait(7000 +Random(3000));
  end;
end;

Thats usually used in most.

Another.

function FindFastRandoms: Boolean;// credits to fawk? Forgot who...
var
  i: Integer;
begin
  for i:=1 to 10 do
  begin
    case I of
     1:  If FindDead then
           Result := True;
     2:  If FindMod then
           Result := True;
     3:  If FindMime then
           Result := True;
     4:  If FindMaze then
           Result := True;
     5:  If FindQuiz then
           Result := True;
     6:  If FindDemon then
           Result := True;
     7: begin
           if NoGameTab then
           begin
             Result := True;
             Players[CurrentPlayer].loc := 'No GameTab';
             Logout;
             Exit;
           end;
         end;
     8: begin
           if InBlack then
           begin
             Result := True;
             Players[CurrentPlayer].loc := 'InBlack';
             Logout;
             Exit;
           end;
         end;
       9: RC;
       10: Respond;
    end;
    wait(1);
  end;
end;

Oh I see, but why do ents always screw me up?

It depends on how good the script is, more complex scrips handle more randoms better.

Oh ok, I understand now.

No…there's only one way to handle randoms in SRL…it just usually screws up if you don't call them enough.

Oh, so it inst different from script to script! Santa, are you the same santa at fagex?

I thought FindNormalRandoms handles all randoms so you don't have to have that long thing in your script?

Yeah thats what I thought too, but apparently its not the way it works.

Only thing you need to do is to place FindNormalRandoms where you feel that you need to check for randoms.

Though fighting you need to handle seperately.
