#Make Templates

what
And anyone in the community can make templates for starters!
Idk if you're a beginner you should make scripts
That way you'll learn
The thing is like
Showing examples for people to get better
If you just get spoonfed everythin'
you wont really learn much
It’s not spoon fed though
That’s the thing
It basically is
isn't this just what snippets is?
Idk
Snippets is anything
But this is a new deal
Think about it
I start and watch tutorials and read the documentation
That still doesn’t do much
So I go and copy and paste a template
Then make what I want while remembering the beginning of a started script
What if I am not new but like a normal scripter, I want to get to be experienced. Let’s make a template that is like a fill in the blank.
“Suggestions don’t have to be added, they are just here. So no need of deletion or criticism because at the end of the day, it’s making the community stronger one piece at a time.” - Waffle
I think #skript-snippets along with the examples that come pre generated with skript should be good. Shane also has a repo of more stuff
Plank suggests that you read Shane's snippets
i think what he means is something around the lines of component based logic, so instead of effects expressions etc it would consist of small bits of code to put together some logic
That’s the closest it is
Being honest this is hard and not really pratical for written code
BUT
I've had this idea in the back of my mind to make a drag and drop skript website, kinda like scratch but maybe more like blender nodes, this would easily allow for "snippets" of "code"
yeah, are you making it?
idk
maybe
wait lemme shower rq
The problem is that there is alot of stuff to add, all events etc. and im not sure if i want to do all that
😐
(also my current drag and drop code is dogshit, and it breaks 99% of the time D:)
are you using skripthub's docs tool to get the elements?
So you mean fetching the elements from them, and importing them?
https://github.com/SkriptHub/SkriptHubDocsTool
do you really think me or any other addon developer does documentation manually?
yeah
np
lemme use that instead :3
Thank you, this is going to make my life unlimited times easier!! 😄
Yess!!
Well i imported all of them now, now just to fix all of the many errors 😄
Alright, the events are fixed now.
honestly that's a great idea
the hardest part though is being able to support any addon
Yeah
you could make each draggable element have some sort of button to show similar elements
how serious are you about making this anyway?
on a scale from 1-10 probs a 4?
now make it in rust
i have 2 that look like that, they're a bit bigger though and all they do is scream in anybody's presence
that looks nice
Ig
this is gonna be such a pain
wait do i make it like this (dont mind my poor drawing skills)
it outputs it like this
on join:
if something:
if something:
because it might be better
why not like scratch?
hm
I currently have this (dont mind the white box i havent added styling)
i get where you're going with it but this isn't good because the order becomes vague
i myself now think these two steps are running in parallel
To be honest I think jakes idea would be the simplest for beginners, i'll probs start somewhere tommorow
how about you do it like this?
(rough sketch)
or use the scratch-like code blocks (which is probably easier to use)
you could make it like
( event ) -> ( send effect) -> ( give )
| | | |
| v | |
| ( a string ) | |
| | |
( event-player )-----------------^ |
( iron ingot)```
but this looks more complicated than it should
I still think jakes idea is best atm
i think my earlier idea is overall best as a starter
other stuff can be implemented later if you want
lemme check it out
oh yah that's nice
Yes ofcourse :)!!
😄
btw what are you making this in
the problem is that it won't be intuitive to most people
I'd probably use a framework for something like this, but you do you :D
you're at least using jQuery though, right?
..
RIGHT!?
nice, i use these too when i want to do similar stuff
thats why i said it could be a second style
Hmm ill just stick to the scratch like code blocks, it's easy to understand etc.
and make a second style as jake said later
Id pay for something like this
If it allows me to import addon that is
Ill probs do something likethat, i havent touched it in a while tho
there's potential in it
yea
Alright, í'm continueing again..
Interesting topic
i agree its def interesting tbh
Yeah tbh this makes it look like there are two things branching out idk
I would use this tho
Great idea!
I feel like the main reason I learned was because I WASNT spoon fed how to do things
it encouraged me to read docs
I like being spoon-fed it gives me the feeling of supermecy
But I don't do that because stealing code makes me feel better
you mean supremacy?
Yes
sounds extremely toxic
If it's public unprotected expect theft to happen
never said it was illegal
Its not illegal?
????
Damn that removed some fun
I often scrape old code and update it
To use it personally
Or sometime release it
nice
lol
could you make it work with reflect somehow? maybe in an advanced mode only. It's a very important tool for skripting (able to use paper methods that aren't in addons and integrate with plugins)
would need to get all methods and be able to attach them onto expressions/variables
I would totally use this, and yeah I agree scratch ui is best
you should make a thread for this in #1019709064621600808
