Is It Still Possible To Script?

ChoobertChoobert Join Date: 2004-09-05 Member: 31395Members
I know that there is the mp_blockscript now, but it seems that people still have pistol scripts. is there a way around it?

    it's a server variable, and some servers choose to allow scripters, others don't

    welcome to the forums by the way <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If people can shoot the pistol very fast on a blockscripts 1 server, MAYBE THEY ARE USING THEIR FINGERS TO CLICK THEIR +ATTACK BUTTON.

    Or the mousewheel.

    Don't say "Scripts!" everytime you see someone do stuff.

    Thank you.

    well said.

    Yes, indeed. I took a pistol script from the "Testing _special" thread and managed to find out that I could fire the pistol a lot faster (Albeit a tad less accurately) without the _special script.

    One thing I did find out, however, is that strobe is fun. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Scripting is technically still possible. However mp_blockscripts blocks certain scripts which repeat commands (+command/-command I think, if I'm wrong someone correct me) and if you just want two different commands together like say... to call for a medpack and say "Medpack Comm" you would have to put into an alias and then bind the alias:
    <!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->alias lolpack "impulse 10; say_team Medpack Comm;"
    bind z lolpack<!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

    I noticed that as well, Moomin. The strobe still works, because it's toggling an impulse (I.E. just impulse 100). But if it tries to toggle a + command, it's blocked.

    The "Scripting is not allowed on this server" appears regardless of which one you use, however.
  • sawcesawce Join Date: 2002-12-14 Member: 10787Members
    Also, binding a key to multiple commands (ie: bind x "impulse 10;say_team need med") for some reason gets blocked by blockscripts, but if you do it like moomin said, it wont get blocked.
  • TOmekkiTOmekki Join Date: 2003-11-25 Member: 23524Members
    ive understood that having more than 1 command in a bind will get blocked.

    feel free to correct.

    To be honest, what does it really matter if some guy on a public server is using an omgscript anyway?

    Yeah, it doesn't matter at all. It's like telling someone they have eyes and expecting them to be ashamed.

    Ok, not that has had it's own unique thread but I'm pretty sure there are several reply posts that answered that question in both the new player forum and the general discussion forum. They're a little hard to find so perhaps I should "take my own advice" and not have been so harsh.

    I'm really just tired of seeing the same argument ofver scripting over and over and over again wasting bandwidth and memory. That's all.

    This wigglewalk script is really unbelievable! You can run like mad as a marine, and a skulk with celerity is like rocket.
    Works only on mp_blockscripts 0 servers.

    Btw, there was a thread about *this* script some topics below, when i try to acces it i only get the "you are not permited to view this document" type of error.
    Did *they* made it dissapear?

    DUN DUN DUN!!! It's a conspiracy!!1

    I like my scriptzors. Scripts are part of the half-life engine, they help streamline and simplify gameplay. If you don't like them so much don't use them, no one is forcing you too. In the same way don't force your beliefs onto others.

    I had a thought that it would theoretically be possible to alias out the "+attack" command to something different (Like, "shoot"), rebind your mouse, then instead of having +commands in that pistol script, it would instead execute a regular command (Which happens to execute a + command).

    But it seemed like a lot of trouble to go through just to get a crappy wigglewalk or bhop script set up.

    Does a server have mp_blockscripts enabled?
    Make a bind like "+jump;-jump;+jump;-jump". Press the key and you will see a message displayed.

    You can still bind multiple commands (maybe maximum two) but you cannot use multiple + commands in a row. You cannot use aliases or files to hide those commands. Only one + command can be bound to a key.

    Hello Delphi, I was playing in a server with you earlier today. Perhaps you remember Mr. Flashlight.

    None of my ubar-leet special scripts work on blockscript servers except my flightlight commands, special strobe, and text/impulse binds. Which are largely useless.
