Job selector and starter pack distributor (npc)

[Novak]

Hi there,

This script is a result of me exploring the possibilities of NPC scripting.
It's not meant to be as much of a short / effective script, as it is an interesting script showing a few things I think are cool that can be done in npc scripting.

And yes, I know there are multiple releases allready that adress job selecting and starterpacks, this one is kinda up to date though, and as stated, had no purpose as to making those other releases obsolete, it was just me trying some things.

Do with it as you please ;)

Any feedback or know of other 'cool' things I can do with npc scripting? Lemme know xD

-- Some credits to some other posts, like the job advancer which gave me the idea, and some starterpack npc released somewhere which had some nice packages to use

[TamixPro]

Nice Release!

I respect the amount of time and effort put into this.

Some suggestions:
Use variables. For example, var job = cm.getPlayer().getJob(). Not doing so makes the code way longer than it has to be.
Use a switch case in proccespackage so that you can improve the readability.

Might be a challenge to dramatically shorten this script given the sheer amount of work this npc is trying to do, so honestly not bad for a beginner.

Ah ofcource, why use a switch in one place, and not in the other? Ill be doing that now, and post a new one after a while :D
And the variables are also a good call ;)

Allright! Posted a new one ;) So what do you think of this one? :p

I never tested it in JavaScript, but in Java you can't do:

case 100 || 1100 || 2000 || 2100 || 3100 || 5100 || 6000:

Instead, you're supposed to do:

case 100:
case 1100:
case 2000:
case 2100:
case 3100:
case 5100:
case 6000:
    break;

Nonetheless, great script. I don't see many people using multiple functions in NPC's, usually they just have a very large start or action method repeating a long if statement or whatever upon selections.

.

Ah you're right. I just so happened to test one of the jobs that was first in line xD Let me fix that!

Thanks for the feedback! :p

And yeah, when I noticed I could actually do multiple functions, I started using them more often. They can really help make things easier.

Allright, fixed up the cases, should work again now :p
