How to Self Code skills!!!!!! By: zero

[MikeHORROR]

Yeah, I know this may be a n00b question but I don't really understand the RaceAlias part.
Could you explain me how to make a racealias for extra damage?

Thanks in regards

racealias is just an ectra cmd line

you could say it's an extention

A racealias, is just like an alias. It's a kind of shortcut, which leads to another code. It allows you to make your code more readable, or write more than 1024 chars per skill

Guys i am in need
I dont really understand it so i need some kind of explanation :/
Could someone talk to me on msn or translate to swedish ?
It would help me a lot

[Inky]

I loved it and it really helped. But there's still a few things unclear to me, the thing is I can't place them, but there's just this sort of 'what?' feeling.

Really, REALLY nice guide. It helped me alot to understand the coding in many skills TY alot,

Im a total newbie my self, but I _guess here you could find something for starters.

And about the tutorial, few points if you dont mind?
Its a good tutorial, over the average, but could you cut the quite useless parts of it, and improve the more interesting ones? Like, I doubt there is really need for explaining what "if" is. Then again, I would like to know what on earth might server_var be? What does it do? Could we name our temporary variables with some other names than wcs_tmp? (I mean, wcs_vAmmo, wcs_aAmmo would be easier to remember and more logical as in victim/ attackerAmmo. Also, I'd love to drop the wcs_ coz thats not too informative in anyway... is that possible?)
Someone mentioned something about 1024 character limit, what is that?

Thanks anyways, good tut ^^

I'll answer in finnish: 1024 kirjainta per rivi on maximi.

I tried adding this to my server just to learn how to code more, and it doesn't seem to activate at all.

Code: (eventscripts) [Select]

  "20"
  {
    "name"              "Test Race"
    "author"            "zero skills"
    "required_level"    "0"
    "maximum_level"     "0"
    "allow_only"        "<STEAM_0:1:8461570>"
    "teamlimit"         "0"
    "preloadcmd"        "0"
    "player_spawn_cmd"  "0"
    "round_start_cmd"   "0"
    "round_end_cmd"     "0"
    "numberofskills"    "1"
    "numberoflevels"    "4"
    "skillnames"        "does nothing"
    "skilldescr"        "Does Nothing"
    "skillcfg"          "player_spawn"

"skill1_setting" "es_xset wcs_chance 60|es_xset wcs_chance 40|es_xset wcs_chance 20|es_xset wcs_chance 10"
"skill1_cmd" "if (server_var(wcs_chance) <= server_var(dice)) then racealias_ammosteal"
"racealias_ammosteal" "es est_getammo wcs_tmp event_var(userid) 1;es est_getammo wcs_tmp2 event_var(attacker) 1;if (server_var(wcs_tmp) >= server_var(wcs_tmp2)) then racealias_ammosteal2;if (server_var(wcs_tmp) < server_var(wcs_tmp2)) then racealias_fail1"
"racealias_ammosteal2" "es est_setammo event_var(userid) 1 server_var(wcs_tmp2);es est_setammo event_var(attacker) 1 server_var(wcs_tmp);es_xtell server_var(wcs_userid) #Lightgreen Swaped Ammo."
"racealias_fail1" "es_xtell server_var(wcs_userid) #Lightgreen You have more ammo then your target!"
"skill1_sfx" "0"
 }
Problem is it just doesn't activate at all.  I'll admit I'm still just jumping into learning how to code.

Put player_attacker... not spawn
