SRL Archive - OSR Help

Hello,
Im not a good scripter, but i want to improve myself.
I want to add Overload support to a fighting script.
Maybe someone could give me his way to add Overload.
Sorry for my bad English (German)

Regards

Are you scripting in PascalScript or La-pe?

PascalScript doesn't support overloads, but la-pe does

Lol. He means overload potions (in rs), not overloads (numbers over 2.1b?).

It would be difficult to do this if you do not have any pascalscript knowledge. Is the script yours? Could you posts its code?

Oh yes i mean Overload in Rs.
Hmm okay. This is not my Script. Its called Based Bandits.
Hmm are there any tutourials that could be useful for me ?

Don't feel bad, I was thinking the same thing. :p


Ok let's see, adding potion-handling to a script will be done in this process (roughly):

1) Time to take a sip?
2) Find the potion in the inventory
3) Clicking the potion
4) Resetting a "potion timer"

I'll let you handle Step 1 & 4, but I'll show you how to do Step 2 & 3.

For finding an item in the inventory, your best bet is to use DTMs; these are commonly used as their accuracy and simplicity make them very practical. To learn how to make DTMs you can check out one of these tutorials:
Creating Accurate DTMs
Yohojo's DTM Tut 1(Item finding with DTMs)

Now that you've made your DTM of your potion we'll want to find it & click it. I constructed a small example script of how to do this. It's self-explanatory:

{$I SRL/SRL.Simba}

Var
  Potion: Integer;

Procedure LoadOurVars;
begin
  Potion := DTMFromString('YOUR DTM STRING GOES HEREEEEEEE');  //First, let's define our "Potion" DTM
end;

Procedure FreeOurDTMs;
begin
  FreeDTM(Potion);
end;

Function ClickPotion: Boolean;
var
  x,y,PotionSlot: Integer;
begin
  Result := False;                                             //By default, this function should result False

  if FindDTM(Potion,x,y,MIX1,MIY1,MIX2,MIY2) then              //If our "Potion" DTM is found in the inventory then...
  begin
    PotionSlot := CoordsToItem(X,Y);                           //Convert the X/Y coordinate (that we found the Potion DMT at) into an inventory slot
    MouseItem(PotionSlot, mouse_left);                         //Click the 'PotionSlot' inventory slot with a left-click action
    Result := True;                                            //We found & clicked the potion, so let's make this function result True (success!)
  end;
end;

begin
  SetupSRL;

  LoadOurVars;  //We MUST load our Potion DTM or the script won't know what to look for!

  if ClickPotion then
    Writeln('Took a sip of our potion!')
  else
    Writeln('No potion found...');

  FreeOurDTMs;  //ALWAYS free the DTMs after we're done using them (usually this is called when a script is stopped
end.

I hope that helps.

Edit:
Also as a small reference, MIX1 = Inventory X1, MIY1 = Inventory Y1, MIX2 = Inventory X2, MIY2 = Inventory Y2. Just in case you were wondering.

That's overflow, not overload ;)

And yeah, I thought the same as Zyt3x too :p

@Flight ,
Thanks for your help.
I will have a try adding Overloads.
Best Regards

Edit: I had a look on yohojos Dtm Tutourial, and i have a Question.
When i want to add a potion like Overload flask to my script, there are six different items ( Overload flask (6),
Overload flask (5), Overload flask (4), Overload flask (3), Overload flask (2) and Overload flask (1)).

Do i have to make Dtms of all of them ? Or only of the Overload flask(1)

Thanks

Okay,
I now made a Dtm of an Overload flask (1) and if i try it on other overload Flasks like (2,3,4) it will always find it. So i guess it is right :)

Im now trying to add these to the script ;)
