Black Market at x,y,l coordinates. |
(Black Markets are type 7) A#/$; - Get/set artifact in given slot # - slot (0..6) $ - set/get artifact (Format A1) Setting scroll instead of regular artifact may lead to crash I$; - Get/set index of Black Market's pool $ - index (0 up to Number of Black Markets on Map - 1) You can setup multiple Black Markets to use same pool of artifacts - buying artifact in one will make it unavailable in other one aswell. Technically it's same as OB:C, except it secures type (doesn't work if type <> 7) and index value ( 0 <= index <= number_of_black_markets-1, otherwise error is shown) |
Comments:
In most cases it is inadvisable to try to set up objects using an immediate instruction (!#) at map start-up rather than using a standard receiver that follows a trigger. This is because these object setup commands often don't work as immediate instructions, or worse, will cause the map to crash.
There is one thing that worrys me: for example, Black Markets has allocated memory at map start (between !# and PI) There is one pool (7 slots) for every Black Market on map. OB:C stores index in this list. So, if you have 3 Black Markets, first found (topleft-topright-bottomleft-bottomright) has OB:C = MK:I = 0, next one has 1, last one will be 2.
What exactly happens if you place new Black Market with ERM though? Will it have non-existant pool 3 (this will likely cause segfault when visited) or will it be 0 - the same pool as first Black Market on map?
Same issue might apply to other objects, so be careful. Everything can be managed with smart coding though :)
Now you can not only set but also get the string
parameters. You can use it when M command is used to set name/message.
Example:
!!IFv10:S5;
!!SG4/3/0:M1/v10; set sign message to string var z[v10] or z5
!!SG4/3/0:M1/?z10; get current sign message to z10 string var
Be careful: don't use OB command with an object
with 2 entrance (yellow case)
When you place an object, it will set up only first right bottom
entrance square that will be met. Then you should manually copy a
control word (OB:C) from that square to all other yellow squares of this
object.
The same goes for "Other Objects" receivers - most of those modify control word (OB:C)
How I check if AI visit objects?
When any hero visits an object the AI flag is stored in flag1000. So you can use
it like here:
!?OB...;
!!IF&1000:M^Player^;
!!IF&-1000:M^AI^;
