who cares

The expression I want to use is this : total = x + (( y * 3 ) / 10) + ( z * 6 ) - a - b; Somehow, total gets assigned 0 even when x,y,z,a and b are non zero. Are the brackets causing any error? Also are staments like m = 0.3 * t; supported. Or will the 0.3 be rounded off to 0?

Thanx, that worked. Didn't know that barriers were "objects".

There's a barrier and I need to clear it through the script. Like what used to happen in Fort Dranlon in Av2. I don't think block_entry will work. I want the barrier to disappear. Is it possible?

I had a question - Can we put town entrances in a town? I mean, like a pathway from town A leads to town B?

Thanx for the help. And the only reason I found the Editor documentation too lengthy was that I never actually read it completely.(I hope you understand what I mean) Plus, I wasn't (and still aren't) planning to learn scripting anytime soon due to terribly hectic schedules. I was just wondering if I could have a little fun with the editor without learning any coding right now. I'll try learning scripting in the summer vacations.

I know this is a question that has been asked time and again. But I need help on some specific questions. 1)Do I need to learn scripting? Or can simple scenarios be created without scripting? 2)How difficult is scripting? I know a decent amount of C++ (arrays, loops, pointers, functions classes, polymorphism,etc). Will I find it difficult to learn scripting for BOA? 3)Where should I begin? I found the tutorial that comes along with BOA a little too lengthy. Is there any other tutorial available? 4)How long does it take to (somewhat) finish the learning part? Thanx.
