 Script Classes
I'd like to start a new round of TWX scripting classes, starting in the next week or two. I'll be testing out blogtalkradio for the hosting, since Skypecast is no more. I've started a poll. Please add suggestions or vote on existing ones if you plan on attending. Suggest here as well, but be sure to vote there eventually. I'll firm up dates shortly. Vote here.Regards, +EP+

 Re: Script Classes
You'll get a lot of the basic stuff probably, but I'd like to cover more advanced text processing stuff. Like the way xide sends macro loops to the server and manages to keep track of everything in pack 2 stuff. Advanced script timing stuff provides a real edge in many game situations.

 Re: Script Classes
I *think* recording is inherent with blogtalkradio. One way or the other though, it will be recorded.

 Re: Script Classes
I think it is an excellent idea that could help a lot of people. Reading code is one way, but to understand the why that it is being done is a lot better way to learn.
The subjects I've posted on are written for people who have had little or no exposure to writing anything, and it would be good for others to proof read to make sure I'm not sending people down the wrong path and clarify as they see fit. I see a need for very basic examples and then mid to higher level information.

 Re: Script Classes
Well, Im roaming through some interesting posts and came across this one. Will this happen one day?? I know it used to happen a bit more but should be fun. Maybe come up with a packet then have the class including it.
