RunUO Scripting Warm-up Competition #1 - RunUO

**Jeff** · 07-14-2008, 01:09 PM

Create a simple, yet interesting script. The script may be an item, mobile, command, system. Do not make the script to intricate as this is just a warm-up.

The General Competition Rules apply

Rules
All code must be commented. This ensures you wrote the code and understand it, it also helps when others are looking over your code to learn, and see what your intentions were(right or wrong)

All code will be considered open source and will be made public to the RunUO Community.

You have 2 weeks starting Tuesday July 15th 2008 and ending Monday July 28th 2008

All entries must be submitted to scriptcompetition (at) runuo (dot) com by 11:59pm on Monday July 28th to qualify for the warm-up competition

You cannot steal, use, modify, submit, etc anyone elses RunUO Scripts as your submission. Only original scripts will be accepted.

All entries must be made for RunUO 2.0 RC2 or SVN

Stupid question, but what version do these have to be compatible with? Latest SVN? 2.0? Just curious because I think I'm going to put together a submission for some fun

Not for this one. Perhaps the next.

Lokai · 07-22-2008, 11:37 AM

Do we release the scripts ourselves in Script Submissions forum, or will you be releasing them for us?

Also, if we make improvements on them, will the submission be in our name so we can edit them?

Nah, I will post all the code in this forum.

Radwen · 07-24-2008, 07:43 PM

I guess there is no preventing it, but theoretically can the submission just be an old script that wasn't publicly released retouched for the competition? Or should all scripts be made purely for this event?

Ill leave that up to you.

Radwen · 07-27-2008, 12:08 AM

Are we allowed to submit multiple submissions?

Mideon · 07-27-2008, 10:33 AM

Can our script accompany a distro change? I have to make a small change to a base class to make my script as simple as it can be. Just curious if this is a no no or not.

So, was that "yes, it can accompany a distro change"? or "yes, it's a no no"?
