Enums

[Rykor]

I have read all i can find on enums and there doesn't seem to be much. They look very useful and i would like to figure them out here is what i am trying. I keep getting error missing reference i am not sure how to do that.

namespace Server.Items
 
{
 
    public enum Sharpness  // i realize a bool would be better but this just example
    {
 
        Sharp,
        Dull
 
    }
 
        private Sharpness mSharp;  // this is the instanced one?
        public Sharpness Sharp  // this one is public in order to change the instanced one?
        {
            get { return mSharp; }
            set { mSharp = value; }
        }
 
        Sharpness Sharp = Sharp.Dull; // this is how i use the enum?
 
}

 

[_Epila_]

Sharpness Sharp = Sharpness.Dull;

Being this was posted in the tutorial topic. I will attempt to turn it into a tutorial.

Assuming the enums are in the item script.

In Item script add

        public enum Sharpness  // i realize a bool would be better but this just example
        {
 
            Dull, // You always want the default to be first.
            Sharp
 
    }

Within (best just under the class).
As seen below within the SharpDagger.cs

        private Sharpness m_Sharp; // this is the instanced one?
 
        [CommandProperty( AccessLevel.Administrator )]
 
        public Sharpness Sharp  // this one is public in order to change the instanced one?
 
        {
 
            get { return m_Sharp; }
 
            set { m_Sharp = value; }
 
        }

In your Method.

        if ( Sharp != Sharpness.Sharp )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

or

        if ( Sharp != Sharpness.Dull )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

or

        if ( Sharp == Sharpness.Sharp )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

or

        if ( Sharp == Sharpness.Dull )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

If in PlayerMobile.cs
Add to PlayerMobile.cs

        private Sharpness m_Sharp; // this is the instanced one?
 
        [CommandProperty( AccessLevel.Administrator )]
 
        public Sharpness Sharp  // this one is public in order to change the instanced one?
 
        {
 
            get { return m_Sharp; }
 
            set { m_Sharp = value; }
 
        }

To reference it from another script in your method.

        if ( from is PlayerMobile && ((PlayerMobile)from).Sharp != Sharpness.Sharp )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

or

        if ( from is PlayerMobile && ((PlayerMobile)from).Sharp != Sharpness.Dull )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

or

        if ( from is PlayerMobile && ((PlayerMobile)from).Sharp == Sharpness.Sharp )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

or

        if ( from is PlayerMobile && ((PlayerMobile)from).Sharp == Sharpness.Dull )
        {
                        //Your code here
        }

For this one I will post a working script.
If Enums in a script all by them selves. Say Sharp.cs

Add to your item script.

using Server.Sharp

In your Method.

if ( Sharp != Sharpness.Sharp )
{
//Your code here
}

or

if ( Sharp != Sharpness.Dull )
{
//Your code here
}

or

if ( Sharp == Sharpness.Sharp )
{
//Your code here
}

or

if ( Sharp == Sharpness.Dull )
{
//Your code here
}

Sharp.cs

using System;
using Server.Items;
 
namespace Server.Sharp
 
{
 
        public enum Sharpness  // i realize a bool would be better but this just example
        {
 
            Dull, // You always want the default to be first.
            Sharp
 
    }
}

SharpDagger.cs

using System;
using Server.Network;
using Server.Targeting;
using Server.Items;
using Server.Sharp;
 
namespace Server.Items
{
 
    [FlipableAttribute( 0xF52, 0xF51 )]
    public class SharpDagger : BaseKnife
    {
 
        private Sharpness m_Sharp; // this is the instanced one?
 
        [CommandProperty( AccessLevel.Administrator )]
        public Sharpness Sharp  // this one is public in order to change the instanced one?
        {
            get { return m_Sharp; }
            set { m_Sharp = value; }
        }
 
        public override WeaponAbility PrimaryAbility{ get{ return WeaponAbility.InfectiousStrike; } }
        public override WeaponAbility SecondaryAbility{ get{ return WeaponAbility.ShadowStrike; } }
 
        public override int AosStrengthReq{ get{ return 10; } }
        public override int AosMinDamage{ get{ return 10; } }
        public override int AosMaxDamage{ get{ return 11; } }
        public override int AosSpeed{ get{ return 56; } }
        public override float MlSpeed{ get{ return 2.00f; } }
 
        public override int OldStrengthReq{ get{ return 1; } }
        public override int OldMinDamage{ get{ return 3; } }
        public override int OldMaxDamage{ get{ return 15; } }
        public override int OldSpeed{ get{ return 55; } }
 
        public override int InitMinHits{ get{ return 31; } }
        public override int InitMaxHits{ get{ return 40; } }
 
        public override SkillName DefSkill{ get{ return SkillName.Fencing; } }
        public override WeaponType DefType{ get{ return WeaponType.Piercing; } }
        public override WeaponAnimation DefAnimation{ get{ return WeaponAnimation.Pierce1H; } }
 
        [Constructable]
        public SharpDagger() : base( 0xF52 )
        {
            Weight = 1.0;
        }
                public override void OnDoubleClick(Mobile from)
                {
            if ( Sharp == Sharpness.Dull )
            {
            //Would probably like to make a sharpening stone and have it target it to sharpen.
            Sharp = Sharpness.Sharp;
            }
        }
        public SharpDagger( Serial serial ) : base( serial )
        {
        }
 
        public override void Serialize( GenericWriter writer )
        {
            base.Serialize( writer );
 
            writer.Write( (int) 0 ); // version
        }
 
        public override void Deserialize( GenericReader reader )
        {
            base.Deserialize( reader );
 
            int version = reader.ReadInt();
        }
    }
}

You would most likely want to Serialize/Deserialize in order to keep the properties of the Item/Mobile. That is another tutorial.
