| I wasn't able to completely understand the definitions in the helps and tutorials.
What are the big differences of:
Script
Aliasses (this one i know a bit. it's about what i type, and what happens then)
Plugins
Triggers (this one i know a bit. it's what the game sees in my screen, and triggers an event that i created.)
what i don't understand inside creating something, is why to put an alias/trigger to script/world. what is the difference?
please steer me to the correct help info if the explanation is too big to put in here :P
Thnx in advance
J. Postma

Spaces only help us read the code. Lua does not care about them. |

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indent_style
Script - lines of code interpreted by the script engine
Aliases - a mechanism for linking predefined behaviors to user input
Plugins - a portable container for aliases, triggers, and other script lines
Triggers - a mechanism for linking predefined behaviors to game output

"to script" means the lines get interpreted by the script engine as code.
"to world" means the lines get sent directly to the MUD |
