BREAK; CONTINUE; - Skul - 08-08-2014 06:12 AM

Just wondering about this new feature. I'm wondering if there is a DELAY we can input> Example:

Code:

forinstances c_man

  local.x += 1

  if (<dlocal.x>==<eval <eval <local.x> /100> *100>)

    break

      serv.allclients sysmessage Break

      delay xxx //delay being 10th of seconds

    continue

  endif

endfor

Just wondering if we can have a delay (in 10th of seconds) so we can break and send commands while performing large and lengthly loops.

Break and continue are not used "for stopping and/or restarting" a loop.

Break allows you to "terminate" a loop, when the script execution will reach a break statement, Sphere will "jump out" from the current loop.

Continue instead allows you to "skip" the current iteration of the loop and "jump" to the next loop iteration.

As dark said break and continue are not meant for that, however you can easily do it with something like this:

Code:

local.delay=<serv.time>+10

forinstances c_man

  local.x += 1

  if (<dlocal.x>==<eval <eval <local.x> /100> *100>)

   if (<local.delay>< <serv.time>)

     break

   endif

   serv.allclients sysmessage Break

   local.delay +=10 //delay being 10th of seconds

   continue

  endif

endfor

i tried looking info about "break" and "continue" at wiki, couldnt find it... what are they?

Here you have an example using continue when there's no reference related to the specified layer, as you can see the for will go to the next loop. (Be sure you have some clothes or armor equiped before using it)

Code:

[function f_test1]

for 0 24

 ref1=<findlayer.<local._for>>

 if !(<ref1>)

  continue

 endif

 say Layer <dlocal._for>  = <ref1.name>

end

say Function finished

Here you have the same example but using break instead of continue, I think you'll see the differences if you test both.

Code:

[function f_test2]

for 0 24

 ref1=<findlayer.<local._for>>

 if !(<ref1>)

  break

 endif

 say Layer <dlocal._for>  = <ref1.name>

end

say Function finished

The break will stop permanently the loop and continue with the rest of the script.
