Intermediate Guide to Scripting Discussion

[alpaca]

Ya that was exactly what I meant ;)
However, you should theoretically also be able to differentiate different sequential parts of a script (for example PreEvent and AfterEvent parts) by specifying a counter loop like this example:

declare_counter event_triggered
.
.
.
monitor_event
set_counter event_triggered 1
terminate_monitor
end_monitor

while I_CompareCounter event_triggered = 0
end_while
.
.
.
while TrueCondition
end

What this does is loop the first part until event_triggered is set to 1, which happens when you reach your desired event, and then starts looping the second part. This struct is what I meant with "escape condition"; if you want to use it, make sure that all your monitors in the first part look like this:

monitor_*
if I_CompareCounter event_triggered = 0
...code...
end_if
if not I_CompareCounter event_triggered = 0
terminate_monitor
end_if
end_monitor

So that they are destroyed when we hit our event.
I'm not sure whether monitors are pre-loaded when the script starts executing, but if they are, you also need to make the monitors of the second part look like this:

monitor_*
if I_CompareCounter event_triggered = 1
...code...
end_if
end_monitor

Might be useful for some stuff, I don't know ;) I just derived this from my programming skills.
