1.0->2.0RC1 Conversion miniFAQ

[daborg]

So you decided to try to convert your scripts to the RC1 and now all those errors pop out? Here are the most common errors that you will run into, regardless if you are using custom scripts or not..

Note this FAQ is provided as is, you must know what you are doing, or you will break more then you will fix

Error :

The type or namespace name 'CommandEventArgs' could not be
found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Solution:
The name space of Commands has changed
Old namespace Server.Scripts.Commands has to be replaced by

using Server.Commands;

Error :
The type or namespace name 'Register' does not exist in the namespace 'Server.Commands' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
the proble is caused by this line:

Server.Commands.Register( "yourcommand", AccessLevel.Administrator, new CommandEventHandler( yourcommand_oncommand ) );

Solution:
replace with

CommandSystem.Register( "yourcommand", AccessLevel.Administrator, new CommandEventHandler( yourcommand_oncommand ) );

Error :

'Server.Mobiles.FightMode' does not contain a definition for 'Agressor'

Solution:
some typos were fixed in new release including this one. just replace FightMode.Agressor in your failing script with

FightMode.Aggressor

Error :

The name 'Controled' does not exist in the current context

Solution:
Another typo has been fixed, replace Controled with

Controlled

Error :

'Server.Items.YourItem.Dupe(int)': no suitable method found to override

Solution:
the dupe method is no longer supported, find the dupe code in your script and remove it. example dupe code:

public override Item Dupe( int amount )
		{
			return base.Dupe( new Ingot( amount ), amount );
		}

Error :

Server.Mobiles.YourMobile.GetContextMenuEntries(Server.Mobile, System.Collections.ArrayList)': no suitable method found to override

Solution:
the ArrayList has been replaced with the type of List<YourType>.
find this line in your mobile code

 
public override void GetContextMenuEntries( Mobile from, ArrayList list )

and replace it with

   public override void GetContextMenuEntries( Mobile from, List<ContextMenuEntry> list )

Error :
I did what you told me to do and now I have a new error(s)

The type or namespace name 'ContextMenuEntry' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Solution:
Make sure your code contains:

using Server.ContextMenus;

Error :
I did what you told me to do and now I have a new error(s)

The type or namespace name 'List' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Solution:
Make sure your code contains:

using System.Collections.Generic;

Nice, but... why don't you put this in the FAQ board?

***EDIT***
Here's something I remember:

	public enum AIType
	{
		AI_Use_Default,
		AI_Melee,		//old was AI_Meelee
		AI_Animal,
		AI_Archer,
		AI_Healer,
		AI_Vendor,
		AI_Mage,
		AI_Berserk,
		AI_Predator,
		AI_Thief
	}

Awesome! A Real Life Saver.. How about this one or two :S

The type or namespace name 'CommandPrefix' does not exist in the namespace 'Server.Commands' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

'Server.Accounting.Accounts' does not contain a definition for 'Table'

The type or namespace name 'DopplegangerFlesh' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

"CommandPrefix" : Replace with "CommandSystem.Prefix"

Table was replaced with a private Dictionary<string, IAccount>. To access the list of accounts, use...

ICollection<IAccount> GetAccounts()
