Recently I've been compiling scripts I've found useful in NS, and I'd like to share it with my fellow forumites. I've attatched a .zip with a scripts .cfg file in it, and a readme with instructions. I'd like you guys to suggest any scripts I'm missing, and any improvements to my current scripts. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

What scripts are included?
oh you should be aware of the new work around to display text on screen, DragonMech. It's really helpful for toggles and such. It uses motd_write to display a message with developer enabled, but keep it from interfering with the stock motd.txt you simply switch motd files in the string:
developer 1;motd_write Hello word, whatever whatever..;developer 0
or to preserve the original motd
motdfile "echo.txt"
developer 1;motd_write Hello word, whatever whatever..;developer 0
motdfile "motd.txt"
neat, huh?
EDIT: Few more things, I was looking at the .cfg and you didn't make the change suggested by me and mentioned in the readme to the chat script.

@ redbaron: I've replaced the attatchment with a fresh .zip - see if it works.
@ MrRadicalEd: Yes I'd like to see your script and thank you for the MOTD hint - I'll play with that and see what I can make.
@ Urd: The echo command works fine if you alias the developer command like 'alias dev0 "developer 0" etc. Also, thanks for catching that mistake of mine - I had to restore an older version of my script file and I missed redoing that change.
*Post work edit*
MrEd, I've gotten the MOTD trick to work - I'll start adding it to my current scripts. Thank you. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
It works for me - have a look at my console when I use my voice toggle script:
I see - I didn't realize that it was supposed to put text on your screen.
o Added MOTD commands to display on-screen text. This will let you see things like 'Duck Toggle On' without having to open your console.
o Added crouch-jump scripts (2 versions).
o Added Sensitivity scroller script - lets you change your sensitivity on the fly.
o Added MrRadicalEd's Alien structure selector script, which lets you cycle through and build the 4 alien chambers with only a few keys.
o Reorganized the order of the scripts, added individual sections for each alien class, etc.
I'm waiting on Tyr to send me a yay/nay on adding his alien upgrade script before I release the next version. If anyone wants one of the mentioned scripts though, I'll be happy to post it. <!--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-->
One thing I do need it onos scripts - if you have any that help you play, please share them. <!--emo&::hive::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/hive5.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='hive5.gif' /><!--endemo-->
EDIT: And is the download changed? It is the same file for me.
He posted it on a scripting forum a while ago, thats where I saw it.

You need to make a echo.txt file in your ns folder, or cut out the motdfile bits to use the default file.
@ kardoffel: You need to have an echo.txt file in your ns folder, or your machine will lock up. To use a MOTD command, write something like this:
<!--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-->dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Duck Toggle Enabled; MOTD; motdfile motd.txt; dev0;<!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
alias -zenoleap "slot3; wait; +attack; wait; -attack; wait; +attack; wait; -attack"
i made that for myself when im lazy, its been a while since i used it, but i belive it has a bug.
all it does is xeno then befor you explode, leaps twice. this is all you can do, even with adren i didnt see a purpose for more.
hope its used <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It does have a bug, but I fixed it. I also modified it slightly; this is how the entry in my script pack will read:
<!--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-->//XenoLeap Script
//This script lets you push a button to switch to Xeno, then release it to trigger xeno and
//leap at your targets. If you don't want to use Xeno, just swap to another weapon while
//holding down the selected key and you won't blow yourself up.
alias "w2" "wait; wait"
alias +xenoleap "weapon_divinewind"
alias -xenoleap "+attack; w2; -attack; wait; weapon_leap; w2; +attack; wait; -attack; w2; +attack; wait; -attack"
bind "Key" "+xenoleap"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
Here is the list of changes I've made that were included:
o Added XenoLeap Script
o Fixed wrong message being displayed in voice and chat toggle scripts bugt
o Added very-much-WIP guide to writing scripts
The last point is a project that I've only spent a few minutes on, but is already showing some progress. In essence, it's a beginner's guide to writing scripts that I've only written a couple of paragraphs of. I'd be happy for any criticism, suggestions, or people telling me to SUMF (shut up my face) because it's obvious I'm a n00b and have no idea what I'm talking about. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Actually '-hook' refers to the hookmod that lets a gorge throw a rappeling line of web - very fun, it out of character for gorges. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
