: Alternative logical branch, in case the '?' condition is false (else).
E.g.
?loc = caves
loadout 1
:
loadout 2
:? Alternative logical branch, with additional conditions (else-if).
E.g.
?loc = caves

//The above equips loadout 1 for Caves of Fear
/* */ Block comment. All text between the symbols has no logical effect when the script executes.
E.g.
/*

·:·:· Commands ·:·:· These tell the game to do something.
activate (ability) Activates an item ability. (ability) can have these values: potion, P, left, L, right, R.
E.g.
activate R
(activates the ability of the item equipped on the right side, such as the Hatchet)
brew (ingredients) Refills the potion bottle to the specified combination of ingredients. Executes only at the beginning of a run, at time 0. Ingredients can be stone, wood, tar or bronze and should be separated by +. Ingredient names can be written in English or in the language selected in the settings.
E.g.
?loc.begin
brew bronze + tar
equip (str) Equips an item. (str) has a limit of 7 criteria. Two-handed items must use this form of the equip command.
E.g.
equip vigor crossbow *8 +5
equipL (str) Equips an item to the left hand that best fits the given criteria.
E.g.
equipL poison d_sword
equipR (str) Equips an item to the right hand that best fits the given criteria.
E.g.
equipR vigor shield
equip @var@ Equips an item based on criteria from a string variable. Equip and other item search commands support subtractive criteria.
E.g.
var weaponName = "poison sword *10 -big"
equipR @weaponName@
loadout (n) Equips a specific loadout number.
E.g.
?loc = caves
loadout 1
?loc = deadwood
loadout 2
> (str) Prints a string to the top of the screen.
E.g.
>Hello World!
> @varName@ Prints a string with the value of a variable inserted. Multiple variables can be inserted into a single print. To insert, surround the variable's name with @.
The following example prints information about the currently targeted foe:
var foeInfo
foeInfo = foe
>FOE = @foeInfo@
>(abcd Shows a custom facial expression on the player. Requires Big Head.
E.g.
>( OwO
>oX,Y,[#rrggbb,](str) Advanced print relative to the player's position. X and Y are the coordinate offsets. #rrggbb is the color of the text in hexadecimal notation. Color can also be set with these constants: #white, #cyan, #yellow, #green, #blue and #red. To print in rainbow use #rainFF where the last 2 characters define the brightness.
The following example writes "Let's go!" in red font, relative to the player's position, 6 to the left and 3 down:
>o-6,3,#red,Let's go!
>hX,Y,[#rrggbb,](str) Similar to ">o", however, draws on the same layer as the Big Head. Ideal for accessories such as hats.
The following draws a yellow hat on the player. Works best if Big Head is enabled:
>h-2,-3,#yellow,ascii
##_
#| |
_|_|_
asciiend
>`X,Y,[#rrggbb,](str) Advanced print relative to the upper-left corner of the screen.
The following prints "Hello World!", but uses variables for the coordinates and the color:
var posX = 10
var posY = 5
var color = rainE1
>`@posX@,@posY@,#@color@,Hello World!
>cX,Y,[#rrggbb,](str) Advanced print relative to the center of the screen. Similar to ">`". Note that in all these the color is optional.
This example demonstrates how the color is optional and defaults to white:
>c0,0,Hello World!
>fX,Y,[#rrggbb,](str) Advanced print relative to the target foe's head position.
The following draws a red crosshairs on the targeted foe:
>f-2,0,#ff0000,ascii
##!
-#·#-
##¡
asciiend
var (variable) Declares a variable that can be used in math, logical and string operations. See the variables section for details about their lifecycle and behavior, that may differ from other languages.
E.g.
var message = Hello World!
>@message@
func (function) Declares a function that can be called later.
E.g.
func Print(message)
>@message@

Print(Hello World!)
for v = a..b Creates a loop that iterates a variable 'v' from value 'a' to value 'b'. Code that appears inside the loop's scope will run multiple times.
E.g.
var a
a = 0
for i = 1..5
a = a + i
>a = @a@
import (script) Loads and executes a singular copy of an external script.
This example imports the fishing mini-game located at
(save-file folder)/Stonescript/Fishing.txt

import Fishing
new (script) Loads and executes an external script similar to 'import'. However, objects loaded with 'new' are each an individual copy and their script body will only execute one time.
This example creates and prints a vector object:
var v = new Components/Vector
v.Init(10, 5)
>Vector = @v@
disable abilities Prevents activation of potion and weapon abilities. Also greys out the HUD buttons.
enable abilities Restores activation of abilities that were disabled by a previous call to "disable abilities".
disable banner Prevents rendering of the horizontal banner that appears with the location name at the beginning and end of a location.
enable banner Restores rendering of the horizontal banner with location name.
disable hud (opts) Hides and disables the gameplay user interface elements. Accepts optional parameters, specifying the set of elements to disable: p = player health and debuffs, f = foe health and debuffs, a = ability buttons, r = resources, b = banner, u = utility belt.
E.g.
disable hud // Disables all hud elements
E.g.2
disable hud ru // Disables only resources (r) and utility belt (u)
enable hud (opts) Brings back the user interface elements hidden by previous "disable hud" commands. Accepts the same optional parameters as the disable command.
disable loadout input Prevents weapon loadouts from being saved or recalled with input keys.
enable loadout input Restores the saving or recalling of weapon loadouts by means of input keys.
disable loadout print Hides the messages that appear when a loadout is recalled.
enable loadout print Brings back the printing of loadout messages.
disable pause Hides the pause button user interface. Pause is still available with the [P] shortcut.
enable pause Brings back the pause button hidden by a previous "disable pause" command.
disable player Hides the player. Has no effect on combat, this is only cosmetic.
enable player Brings back the player rendering if it was hidden by a previous "disable player" command.
play (sound) (pitch) Plays a sound effect with an optional pitch value. The pitch default value is 100 with higher numbers increasing the pitch and smaller numbers lowering it.
E.g.
?key = primary
play buy
?key = up
play buy 200

E.g.2:
var pitch
?time%30 = 0
pitch = rng/100 + 50
>@pitch@
play buy @pitch@

·:·:· Search Filters ·:·:· These are used when evaluating foes, locations and items. E.g.: ?foe = insect | foe = poison loadout 3 poison vigor aether fire air ice arachnid serpent insect machine humanoid elemental boss phase1 phase2 phase3 spawner flying slow ranged explode swarm unpushable undamageable magic_resist magic_vulnerability immune_to_stun immune_to_ranged immune_to_debuff_damage immune_to_physical *[number] star level (location or item) +[number] enchantment bonus (item only) ^Back to top
·:·:· Comparisons ·:·:· Used in conjunction with game state to make decisions
= Compares values equal or string contains.
E.g.
?hp = maxhp
loadout 2
! Compares values not equal or string does not contain.
E.g.
?foe ! poison
equipL sword
& Logical AND operator.
E.g.
?loc=caves & foe=boss
| Logical OR operator. If '&' and '|' are mixed in a single complex expression, all '&' operate first.
E.g.
?foe=slow | foe.count>3
activate potion
> Greater-than compare. Can be used with a location's difficulty, number of foes, health, etc.
E.g.
?foe.count > 10
equip shiny bardiche
< Less-than compare.
E.g.
?hp < 6
activate potion
>= Greater-than or equal compare. The combination of '>' and '=' into a single comparison.
The following two examples are equivalent:

?loc.stars >= 6
equipR vigor shield

?loc.stars > 6 | loc.stars = 6
equipR vigor shield
<= Less-than or equal compare. The combination of '<' and '=' into a single comparison.
E.g.
?hp <= 6

·:·:· Variables ·:·:· Variables are a way of storing value to use later. Declare a new variable with the keyword 'var'. E.g.: var myVar = 10 (myVar is the name of the variable, and it's initialized with value 10) myVar = myVar + 5 (myVar now equals 15) var secondVar = 3 myVar = myVar - secondVar (Many variables can be combined in math operations. myVar now equals 12) When a variable is declared it is initialized only once, the first time 'var' executes. E.g.: var i = 0 i++ >i = @i@ In this example, variable 'i' is declared and starts with value 0. During each frame of the run, the value of 'i' increases by 1 and then is printed to the screen. Variables only reset to their initial value if you leave a location and begin a new run manually. They do not reset when the Ouroboros loops or when the Mind Stone is opened then closed again. String variables can optionally be declared with quotes. This allows special symbols and trailing spaces. E.g.: var a = 10 var b = 5 var myVar = a + " x " + b + " = " + (a * b) >@myVar@ (This example also demonstrates how to join strings with the '+' operator) Variables in imported scripts are contained within those scripts and their names won't collide with variables or functions in other scripts. ^Back to top
·:·:· Math Operations ·:·:· Operators modify numbers. Can be used in conjunction with variables or directly in game state expressions.
+ Adds two numbers or variables together.
E.g.:
var a = 2 + 3
(a equals 5)
- Subtracts two numbers or variables from each other.
E.g.:
?hp < maxhp - 5
equip vigor sword dL
* Multiplies two numbers or variables together.
E.g.:
var a = 2
var b = 5
a = a * b
// a equals 10

E.g.2:
var a = 2 * 0.4
// a equals 0.8
/ Divides one number or variable by another. In the case of integers, the result is rounded down.
E.g.:
var a = 8
a = a / 4
// a equals 2

E.g.2:
var a = 5.0
a = a / 2
// a equals 2.5
++ Increments a variable.
E.g.:
var a = 3
a++
// a equals 4
-- Decrements a variable.
E.g.:
var a = 3
a--
// a equals 2
% Modulo. Gives the remainder of dividing one number by another.
E.g.:
var a = 5 % 4
(a equals 1)

E.g.2:
?time % 8 < 4
> \O)
?time % 8 > 3
> (O/
// this draws an animated emoji
( ) Parenthesis can be used to prioritize operations.
E.g.:
var a = 2 * (3 - 1)
// a equals 4
! Negation. Inverts the value when used in front of a boolean expression.
E.g.:
? !ai.enabled
>The AI is not enabled.

·:·:· Functions ·:·:· Custom functions serve an important organizational purpose to scripts as they grow in complexity. They make scripts easier to read and reduce repetition. When a function is declared its contents are not executed immediately. Instead, lines of script inside a function execute when the function is called at a later point. This example creates a counter that increases by 1 each frame. When any custom input key is pressed, ResetCounter() is called and the counter value goes back to zero: var count = 0 count++ >Counter = @count@ func ResetCounter() count = 0 ?key=begin ResetCounter() Another aspect of functions is that they can return a value. In this example we declare a simple function that calculates the duration of the main location (non-boss area): func NonBossDuration() return totalTime - time var duration duration = NonBossDuration() >Time was: @duration@ Functions also accept any number of arguments/parameters, making them even more powerful, with the ability to operate on arbitrary input. Here, we declare a utility function that generates a random number within a range, then we use it to generate random numbers between 5 and 10: func RandomRange(min, max) ?min >= max return min return min + rng % (max - min + 1) var randomValue randomValue = RandomRange(5, 10) >RNG: @randomValue@ The prefix 'this' can be used inside a funtion when referencing variables that belong to the outside script. Use of 'this' is optional, and script variables can be accessed by a function without the prefix. However, in the following example the variable 'a' appears both inside and outside of the function, so 'this.a' is used for differentiation: var a = 1 func TestScope(a) >Script var = @this.a@, function var = @a@ TestScope(3) When functions call other functions, or themselves, this creates an execution stack that can build in size until the application crashes. To safeguard computer resources Stonescript has a stack limit of 215 and will throw an error if the limit is exceeded. ^Back to top
·:·:· Native Functions ·:·:· While scripts can define their own functions, Stonescript comes with a set of pre-defined/native functions that behave similar to commands, but differ in that they are more clearly grouped by subject, can accept parameters and sometimes return a value.

key
‾‾‾
The key namespace allows for the customization of standard game inputs and shortcuts. This system is based on actions (abbreviated "act") and keys, where each action corresponds to a type of input/shortcut and each key corresponds to a physical key press. The list of all possible keys that can be assigned to actions can be found here. Changes to action bindings persist between runs (they currently do not save to storage). For optimization purposes, it is recommended to not change bindings every frame.

// Breaks up the string into: "He", " ", "o", "Wor", "d", "!"

E.g.3
var a
a = string.Split("Hello World !","l","r",true)
for i = 0 .. a.Count()-1
>`0,@i@,［@i@］ = @a［i］@
// Breaks up the string into: "He", "o Wo", "d !"
string.Sub(str, startAt)
Returns string		 Takes a string variable and a starting index as parameters and splits the string from that point forward.
E.g.
var a = Hello World!
var subString = string.Sub(a, 6)
>substring = @subString@
// subString equals "World!"
string.Sub(str, startAt, length)
Returns string		 Takes a string variable, a starting index and a length as parameters and splits the string from that starting point, stopping at the given length.
E.g.
var a = Hello World!
var subString = string.Sub(a, 6, 3)
>substring = @subString@
// subString equals "Wor"
string.ToLower(str)
Returns string		 Changes all letters in a string to lower-case.
E.g.
var a = "Foo"
a = string.ToLower(a)
>@a@
// Prints "foo" to the screen
string.ToUpper(str)
Returns string		 Changes all letters in a string to upper-case.
E.g.
var a = "Foo"
a = string.ToUpper(a)
>@a@
// Prints "FOO" to the screen
sys
‾‾‾		(The sys namespace is not functioning as intended at the moment)
sys.cacheRemoteFiles
boolean		 Indicates if files imported remotely should be cached between runs. Default is true. If set to false, then remote scripts will re-download when you begin play from the Locations screen. It can be useful to change this during development and iteration of new scripts that are deployed remotely. This global property persists between runs.
E.g.
// We use the "up" key as an input to toggle
// remote caching on/off during rapid iteration
?key = upBegin
sys.cacheRemoteFiles = !sys.cacheRemoteFiles
?sys.cacheRemoteFiles
>Remote caching ENABLED
:
>Remote caching DISABLED
sys.fileUrl
string (get only)		 Getter for the current file path to be used when importing scripts. The default value depends on your device. On PC the default value is local. On mobile the default is https://StonestoryRPG.com/stonescript/
E.g.
>`0,1,fileUrl = @sys.fileUrl@
sys.SetFileUrl(str)
No return value		 Changes the origin of imported scripts when using the commands import or new. Can only be called on the Mind Stone and will error if written on an imported script. Accepts any URL as a remote location, but also accepts the values "local" and "remote" as shortcuts to easily point at your local drive or to the official Stone Story RPG repository, respectively. If null is passed as parameter, then the file URL resets to the default value for your device. This global property persists between runs.
E.g.
sys.SetFileUrl(
^"https://MyCoolDomain.com/scripts/")
import MyCombatScript
sys.os
Returns string		 The user's operating system, such as "Android", "iOS", "Linux", "OSX" or "Windows".
sys.isMobile
Returns bool		 Returns true if the users is on Android or iOS.
sys.isPC
Returns bool		 Returns true if the users is on Win/Mac/Linux.
Text Localization
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾		Stonescript supports 12 languages as of this writing. A few operations allow custom scripts to adapt to the player's chosen language.
te.language
string		 The code for the language selected by the player in settings. Possible values: EN, PT-BR, ZH-CN, ZH-TW, FR, DE, RU, ES-LA, ES-EU, JP, KR and TK.
E.g.
var lang = te.language
>Language = @lang@
te.xt(str)
Returns string		 Translates a given English text into the player's selected language. If a translated version is not found, then the input text is returned instead. Alternatively, a text identifier (TID) can be used as input--albeit the exhausting list of TIDs is beyond the scope of this manual.
E.g.
var button = ui.AddButton()
button.text = te.xt(Play)
// Change your language in settings to see this example at work
te.GetTID(str)
Returns string		 Returns the text identifier (TID) for a given text. The input text is expected in the language selected by the player.
E.g.
var tid = te.GetTID("Play")
>`0,1,@tid@
// Prints tid_button_play to the screen
te.ToEnglish(str)
Returns string		 Translates a given text from the player's selected language into the original English text. If a translated version is not found, then the input text is returned instead.
E.g.
>`0,1,@te.ToEnglish("Jogar")@
// If Portuguese is chosen in settings it will print "Play"
// otherwise it will print "Jogar"
time
‾‾‾‾
time.FormatCasual(int)
time.FormatCasual(int,bool)
Returns string		 Converts an amount of frames into a human-readable string representation of time, such as "1m 23s". The second parameter (bool) is optional; If 'true', then precision is maximized in the result.
E.g.
>`0,0,Current time =
^ @time.FormatCasual(totaltime, true)@
time.FormatDigital(int)
time.FormatDigital(int,bool)
Returns string		 Converts an amount of frames into a human-readable string representation of time, such as "1:23". The second parameter (bool) is optional; If 'true', then precision is maximized in the result.
E.g.
>`0,0,Current time =
^ @time.FormatDigital(totaltime, true)@
UI
‾‾
See the User Interface section for details about Stonescript's advanced UI system. Miscellaneous functions of the ui namespace:
ui.OpenInv()
No return value		 Opens the inventory screen.
ui.OpenMind()
No return value		 Opens the Mind Stone screen.
ui.ShowBanner(str)
ui.ShowBanner(str,str)
No return value		 Displays the animated banner with up to two messages. The banner animation restarts each time ui.ShowBanner() is called.
E.g.
?time = 120
ui.ShowBanner("Hello World!")
Other
‾‾‾‾‾
Type(var)
Returns string		 Evaluates the type of a variable and returns a string representation. Possible types include 'string', 'int', 'bool', 'function', 'object' and 'null'.
E.g.
var a = 0
?Type(a) = int
>Variable 'a' is an integer.

·:·:· Importing External Scripts ·:·:· Your script doesn't have to be all in the Mind Stone. Stonescript supports the loading of external files through the 'import' and 'new' keywords. For external scripts to work they must be located in your save-file folder, inside a /Stonescript folder and end in '.txt'. In the most basic example an external script is imported and runs as if it were directly in your Mind Stone, making this a convenient way to organize farming scripts: import Rocky import Deadwood import Caves import Forest When a script is imported it's copied into its own container and returns as a reference. Variables declared in the external script are isolated and don't interact with variables in other scripts. In this example, a printing utility script offers simplified services: // PrintUtil.txt func LowerLeft(x, y, color, message) y = y + screen.h >`@x@,@y@,@color@,@message@ func LowerRight(x, y, color, message) x = x + screen.w y = y + screen.h >`@x@,@y@,@color@,@message@ // Main script in Mind Stone var print = import PrintUtil disable hud print.LowerLeft(0,-1,#ffffff,"Health: " + hp) Advanced solutions can import the same script multiple times using the 'new' command, for example, to implement componentization or an Object Oriented paradigm: // Vector.txt var x = 0 var y = 0 func init(_x, _y) x = _x y = _y func subtract(otherVect) x = x - otherVect.x y = y - otherVect.y // Main script in Mind Stone var vectFrom = new Components/Vector var vectTo = new Components/Vector vectFrom.init(5, 4) vectTo.init(8, 2) vectTo.subtract(vectFrom) >x = @vectTo.x@, y = @vectTo.y@ External scripts can implement a 'ToString()' function, allowing their direct use in advanced print commands: // Vector.txt var x = 0 var y = 0 func init(_x, _y) x = _x y = _y func ToString() return "(" + x + ", " + y + ")" // Main script in Mind Stone var v = import Components/Vector v.init(3,5) >Vector = @v@ External scripts can be imported from subfolders: import Games/Blackjack import Cosmetics/PetFrog import Cosmetics/Hats While similar, there are two important differences between 'import' and 'new'. With 'import' the same object is returned each time. If you import the same script from multiple places they will all be using the same object. Scripts imported with 'new' are unique copies, but their script body will only run 1 time as opposed to every frame. ^Back to top
·:·:· ASCII-art ·:·:· In Stonescript, custom ASCII-art can be embedded within the scripts and drawn on screen with the advanced print commands. There are a few methods to do this and some glyphs have special behavior: # - Blank space. Transparency. Does not draw. \n - Line break. Causes the draw to continue on the next line. WARNING: This is an expensive operator and should not be used for breaking lines in large drawings. Use the ascii/asciiend block instead. Method 1 - Advanced print This example draws a green circle to the top-left of the screen. >`1,0,#green,ascii #.-. ( ) #`-´ asciiend Method 2 - Variables This example saves the art for a spooky fish into a variable, then draws it to the top-left of the screen in red color. var fishSprite fishSprite = ascii ###(°_## #_/_ o\# #´ `'"# asciiend >`0,3,#red,@fishSprite@ ^Back to top
·:·:· Loops ·:·:· Loops allow a section of code to run multiple times. To create a loop use the 'for' keyword in the form: for v = a..b The variable 'v' begins the loop with value 'a' and increases in value until it reaches 'b', then the loop ends: for i = 1..5 >`0,@i@,i = @i@ The iteration variable 'v' should not be declared prior to the 'for' and is contained to the scope of the loop. However, the begin and end values 'a' and 'b' can be declared prior to the loop: var min = 1 var max = 4 var sum sum = 0 for j = min..max sum = sum + j >sum = @sum@ Loops can also go in the opposite direction, as well as use negative numbers: var g g = "" for k = 5..-2 g = g + k >g = @g@ Loops can be nested inside each other, as well as inlined with math expressions to form complex algorithms: for x = 1..9 for y = x/2 .. x/2 + 6 >`@x@,@y@,* To break out of the loop early, modify the iteration variable so that it's out of range: var n n = "" for i = 1..5 ?i = 3 i = -1 n = n + i >n = @n@ Similarly, break out of the loop with the break command: for i = 1..5 ?i = 3 break Loops also support the continue command. When called, instructions below the continue are skipped and the loop continues looping: var n n = "" for i = 1..5 ?i = 3 continue n = n + i >n = @n@ It's possible to loop through elements of an array using this form: var a = [1, 2, 3] var n n = "" for value : a n = n + value >n = @n@ ^Back to top
·:·:· Arrays ·:·:· Arrays are a special type of variable. They provide a way to sequentially organize values and objects into a collection that is assigned to a single variable.
Operation
---------		 Description
-----------
a = [] Initializes a new array. See below for more information.
a[integer] Reads the value at a given position.
E.g.:
var myArray = [10, 3]
?myArray[1] = 3
>Yes, the value at [1] equals 3
a.Add(value) Adds a new value/object to the end of the array.
E.g.:
var myArray = []
myArray.Add(10)
a.Clear() Removes all elements from the array, making it empty. This is more efficient than re-declaring the array with [].
E.g.:
var myArray = [10, 3]
myArray.Clear()
a.Contains(value) Determines if a given value is inside the array. Returns true if found; false otherwise.
E.g.:
var myArray = [10, 3]
?myArray.Contains(3)
>Yes
a.Count() Returns the number of elements in the array.
E.g.:
var myArray = ["apple","banana"]
var size = myArray.Count()
>Array size = @size@
a.Emplace(integer, value) Replaces the value at a given position with a new value.
E.g.:
var myArray = [10, 3]
myArray.Emplace(0, 4)
var value = myArray[0]
>Value at [0] is now @value@
a.IndexOf(value) Searches for a given value inside the array. Returns an integer indicating the position of the first occurrance of the value. If the value is not found returns -1.
E.g.:
var myArray = [10, 3]
var index = myArray.IndexOf(3)
>Found at position @index@
a.Insert(integer, value) Adds a new value/object to a specific position of the array. Elements to the right are shifted to the next position.
E.g.:
var myArray = [10, 3]
myArray.Insert(1, "apple")
// The array is now [10, "apple", 3]
a.RemoveAt(integer) Removes an element in the array from a specific position. Returns the value removed.
Zero-based: myArray.RemoveAt(0) removes the first element.
Elements to the right are shifted to the previous position.
E.g.:
var myArray = [1, 2, 3]
myArray.RemoveAt(1)
// The array is now [1, 3]
a.Sort() Organizes the array's elements into ascending order. If the array contains objects of different types it will still be sorted, but no expected results are defined and elements are not guaranteed to be grouped by type.
E.g.:
var myArray = ["Cherry", 2, "Apple", 1, true, false, "Banana", 3]
var value

myArray.Sort()

for i = 0 .. myArray.Count() - 1
value = myArray[i]
>`0,@i@,@value@
Here are some of the different ways to initialize and use arrays: var emptyCollection = [] var magicNumbers = [10, 3, 0, 15, -7] var someStrings = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] var sameButMultiLine = [ "apple", "banana", "cherry", ] var redeclaredEachFrame redeclaredEachFrame = [] // Not good for the PC var clearedEachFrame = [] clearedEachFrame.Clear() // Better for CPU & memory var clearedEachLoop = [] ?loc.begin | loc.loop clearedEachLoop.Clear() var multiDimensional = [[], [], []] var objectCollection = [ new Components/Float, new Components/Float, new Components/Vector, ] var animationFrames = [ascii ───┼ O/ /| / \ asciiend ^,ascii ---. O \ /|\┼─── / \ asciiend ^] Looping through arrays: var myArray = ["Apple", "Banana", "Cherry"] var count var value count = myArray.Count() ?count > 0 for i = 0 .. count - 1 value = myArray[i] >`0,@i@,@value@ // This example prints fruit names to the left of the screen Multi-dimensional access: var a = [[1,2], [3,4]] var value value = a[1][0] >Found value @value@ at (1, 0) ^Back to top
·:·:· Custom Input ·:·:· Stonescript can read player inputs by use of the ?key game state. This can be used to drive advanced behaviors, such as different modes for the AI, but custom inputs allow the creation of entirely new experiences layered on top of Stone Story. In this example, the @ symbol can be moved across the screen like the main character in a classic Rogue-like game. The key codes (leftBegin, etc) refer to the initial downpress of the button. var x = 0 var y = 0 ?key = leftBegin x-- ?x < 0 x = 0 ?key = rightBegin x++ ?key = upBegin y-- ?y < 0 y = 0 ?key = downBegin y++ >`@x@,@y@,#ffffff,@ Table with all the available key codes:

·:·:· User Interface ·:·:· Buttons, text, animations... Stonescript provides a system for building complex layouts and high performance User Interfaces. An invisible "root" Panel exists by default, at the base of the system. Various other UI elements can be added to the root Panel, including additional Panels, forming a tree structure. All elements are drawn together, in a single step, in the order in which they are added. root │ ├─ Panel │ ├─ Text │ ├─ ASCII-art │ └─ Button │ ├─ Panel │ ├─ Panel | | └─ Text ...
UI
‾‾		Call functions in the ui namespace to build the interface.
ui.root
Panel		 The base UI object on top of which the entire tree is built.
E.g.
disable hud
ui.root.visible = true
ui.AddAnim(string)
Returns Anim		 Adds an Anim object to the root Panel. Accepts an animation sprite sheet as parameter.
E.g.
?loc.begin
ui.AddAnim(ascii
\o)
%%
(o/
asciiend)
ui.AddButton()
Returns Button		 Adds a Button object to the root Panel.
E.g.
func OnPressed()
> Hello World!

?loc.begin
var button = ui.AddButton()
button.y = 1
button.text = Press me
button.SetPressed(OnPressed)
ui.AddPanel()
Returns Panel		 Adds a Panel object to the root Panel. Panels are an important object type, serving as containers for other elements.
E.g.
?loc.begin
var p = ui.AddPanel()
p.color = #red
ui.AddStyle()
Returns int		 Adds a new style that can be used for drawing rectangular Components such as Panels and Buttons. Returns an ID number of the new style. Is protected against the same style being added multiple times, in which case nothing changes and the same ID is returned. Because different scripts may all call ui.AddStyle(), it's recommended to save the ID as a variable instead of hard-coding style numbers into the script.
E.g.
var customStyle = ui.AddStyle("
^123
^456
^789")
?loc.begin
var p = ui.AddPanel()
p.style = customStyle
ui.AddText()
ui.AddText(string)
Returns Text		 Adds a Text object to the root Panel.
E.g.
?loc.begin
var t = ui.AddText()
t.text = "Hello World!"
ui.Clear()
No return value		 Removes all UI elements from the main container.
E.g.
?key = backBegin
ui.Clear()

Component
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
Component is a base type for all other UI types. This means that other elements (Panels, Text, Buttons and Anim) all have the following properties:
component.x
integer		 The X position of the component relative to its docked position.
component.y
integer		 The Y position of the component relative to its docked position.
component.w
integer		 The component's width. Default value varies by object type.
E.g.
button.w = string.Size(button.text) + 4
// Sizes a button to fit its current text, +2 on each side
component.h
integer		 The component's height. Default value is 5.
E.g.
panel.h = panel.parent.h
// Sets the height of a panel to match the height of its parent panel
component.absoluteX
component.absoluteY
integer
read-only		 The component's position relative to the screen.
E.g.
var t
?loc.begin
var p = ui.AddPanel()
p.anchor = bottom_right
p.dock = bottom_right
t = ui.AddText("Foo")
p.Add(t)
`0,1,Relative pos = @t.x@,@t.y@
>`0,2,Absolute pos = @t.absoluteX@,@t.absoluteY@
component.anchor
string		 Auto-layout property representing the internal pivot of the component. This guides the UI system on how to position the component relative to itself. Default value is "center_center". Possible values: top_left, top_center, top_right, center_left, center_center, center_right, bottom_left, bottom_center and bottom_right.
component.dock
string		 Auto-layout property similar to anchor. However, dock represents the external pivot, or position inside the parent where to position the component. If in doubt, use the same value for both anchor and dock, which is the most common situation.
E.g.
?loc.begin
var p = ui.AddPanel()
p.anchor = top_right
p.dock = top_right
p.w = 20
p.h = 9
var t = ui.AddText("HelloWorld!")
t.anchor = left_bottom
t.dock = bottom_left
t.x = 2
t.h = t.lines.Count() + 1
p.Add(t)
component.ax
string		 The X part of the anchor. Possible values: left, center and right.
component.ay
string		 The Y part of the anchor. Possible values: top, center and bottom.
component.dx
string		 The X part of the dock. Possible values: left, center and right.
component.dy
string		 The Y part of the dock. Possible values: top, center and bottom.
E.g.
var p
?loc.begin
p = ui.AddPanel()
p.ax = right
p.ay = top
p.dx = right
p.dy = top
component.parent
Panel
read-only		 Reference to the component's parent Panel. May refer to the root Panel if the component was created but never added to another Panel. When panel.Add(component) is called the component's parent changes.
component.visible
multi type
bool/string		 Visibility of the component. Default value is "inherit". Possible values: true, false and inherit. If set to 'true', the component will always be visible, ignoring the status of its parent. If set to 'false', the component will be invisible, regardless of its parent. However, if set to 'inherit', the component will follow the visibility of its parent.
component.Recycle()
No return value		 Removes the component from its parent Panel. It will be repurposed in future ui.Add_() calls. Any variable references to the recycled element should be nulled or reassigned to avoid bugs.

Panel > Component
‾‾‾‾‾
Panels are rectangular Components that serve as containers for other Components. A chain of Panels added to each other form a tree structure.
panel.children
Component[]		 Array with all the child components that have been added to the Panel with panel.Add().
panel.clip
bool		 Indicates if the bounds of Panel should be used to contrain the drawing of child components. If true, parts of child components that fall outside of the Panel's bounds will not draw.
E.g.
var p
?loc.begin
p = ui.AddPanel()
p.w = 4
p.h = 3
var t = ui.AddText("The quick brown fox jumps
^ over the lazy dog.")
p.Add(t)

?time%30 < 15
p.clip = true
:
p.clip = false
panel.color
string		 The panels color, in RGB hexadecimal format.
panel.style
int		 ID number of the Panel's current style. Default value is 1. Possible values from -8 to 8. Additional styles can be added with ui.AddStyle()
panel.Add(Component)
panel.Add(Component, int)
No return value		 Adds a Component to a Panel. The Component becomes a child of the Panel and the Panel becomes the parent of the Component. The order in which elements are added to a Panel affects the draw order. Components may be inserted to a specific sorting position by use of the optional integer parameter. No integer parameter means the Component is added as the last child of the Panel. This function can also be used for changing the draw order of Components that are already children of the Panel.
panel.Clear()
No return value		 Removes all UI elements from the Panel. Components removed this way are recycled into the UI system and will be repurposed in future ui.Add_() calls. Any variable references to those elements should be nulled or reassigned to avoid bugs.
panel.Remove(Component)
panel.Remove(int)
No return value		 Removes a specific Component from a Panel or removes the Component at a specified index number. Components removed this way are recycled into the UI system and will be repurposed in future ui.Add_() calls. Any variable references to those elements should be nulled or reassigned to avoid bugs.

Text > Component
‾‾‾‾
Multi-line text box. Supports color metadata.
text.align
string		 The alignment/justification of the text inside the box. Default value is "left". Possible values: left, center and right.
text.color
string		 The color of the text, in RGB hexadecimal format.
text.lines
string[]		 Array of strings that are the broken-down lines of text after the Text box has formatted its contents. Excludes color metadata.
text.text
string		 The full contents of the Text box. A subsection of the text may be colored with the metadata [color=#rrggbb][/color].
E.g.
?loc.begin
var t = ui.AddText()
t.text = "Hello [color=#red]World[/color]!"

Button > Component
‾‾‾‾‾‾
button.text
string		 The text that appears inside the button.
E.g.
button.text = player.name
// Put your name on the button!
button.tcolor
string		 The color of the text inside the button, in RGB hexadecimal format.
E.g.
button.tcolor = #ff0000
// Sets the button text color to red
button.bcolor
string		 The color of the button's border, in RGB hexadecimal format.
E.g.
>@button.bcolor@
button.bcolor = #880000
// Prints the border's current color, then sets it to a dark red
button.hcolor
string		 The color of the button's highlight when it's pressed, in RGB hexadecimal format.
E.g.
?loc.begin
var b = ui.AddButton()
b.hcolor = #yellow
button.sound
string		 The sound effect that plays when the button is pressed. Default is "confirm".
E.g.
button.sound = buy
// Changes the button so it plays the buying sound when pressed
button.style
int		 ID number of the Buttons's current style. Default value is 1. Possible values from -8 to 8. Additional styles can be added with ui.AddStyle()
button.SetPressed(f)
function callaback		 Assigns a function to be called when the button is pressed. The function can have any number of parameters (even no parameters). When the function is called, the first parameter will be a reference to the button itself.
E.g.
var button1
var button2
func OnPressed(btn)
?btn = button1
>Button1 was pressed
:
>Button2 was pressed

?loc.begin
button1 = ui.AddButton()
button1.y = 1
button1.SetPressed(OnPressed)

button2 = ui.AddButton()
button2.y = 6
button2.SetPressed(OnPressed)
button.SetDown(f)
function callaback		 Similar to .SetPressed(), .SetDown() assigns a function to be called when the button press begins (first user contact).
button.SetUp(f)
function callaback		 Similar to .SetPressed(), .SetUp() assigns a function to be called when a depress ends on top of the button (last user contact).
E.g.
func OnDown()
> Down!

func OnUp()
> Up!

?loc.begin
var button = ui.AddButton()
button.y = 1
button.text = Press me
button.SetDown(OnDown)
button.SetUp(OnUp)

Anim > Component
‾‾‾‾
ASCII sprite-sheet animations that can be added to UI.
anim.color
string		 The animation's color, in RGB hexadecimal format.
anim.duration
int		 Time length of the animation, in frames.
anim.flipX
bool		 If true, flips the art horizontally, over its pivot.
anim.flipY
bool		 If true, flips the art vertically, over its pivot.
anim.frame
int		 Current animation frame being drawn. Can be changed to set an animation to a specific frame.
anim.gamePause
bool		 If true, the animation automatically pauses playback if the player pauses the game and resumes playback if the player exits the pause screen.
anim.loop
bool		 If true, the animation will restart from the begining as soon as it reaches the end of its duration.
anim.playing
bool
read-only		 True if the animation is currently playing.
anim.paused
bool
read-only		 True if the animatino is playing, but has been paused with a call to anim.Pause().
anim.pivotX
anim.pivotY
int		 Additional pivot offset that can be used for fine-tuning where the ASCII-art draws in relationship to its position.
anim.playOnStart
bool		 If true, the animation will begin playing as soon as possible.
anim.AddLayer(string)
Returns Anim		 Adds a new ASCII sprite on top of this one. As the animation plays (or its frame is changed with anim.frame) all layers stay in sync. Each layer has their own set of properties for color, pivot, etc. Advantages of using animation layers for complex ASCII-art include improved performance and better code quality. If the animation is recycled all layers clean up simultaneously.
E.g.
var a = ui.AddAnim(asciiArtA)
var layer2 = a.AddLayer(asciiArtB)
layer2.color = #bbbbbb
anim.Load(string)
No return value		 Assigns a new ASCII sprite sheet.
anim.Pause()
No return value		 Suspends playback of the animation at its current frame. A subsequent call to anim.Play() resumes playback.
anim.Play()
No return value		 Begins playing the animation, or resumes playback in case it had been paused.
E.g.
var dance
?loc.begin
dance = ui.AddAnim(ascii
(O/
%%

·:·:· Tips ·:·:· Space (indentation) matters when defining what happens as a result of '?' comparisons (scope). The script can be changed in the middle of a run by pressing 'M' on your keyboard. The Power button in the top-right of the Mind Stone turns the script ON/OFF. If multiple equip Commands are called, whichever comes last will occur. The script executes 30 times per second (once per frame). To experiment with different scripts it's recommended to copy them into an external text editor, such as Notepad. Common shortcuts such as Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V are useful. Holding the Tab key in-game gives you a lot of information about game state and shows a list of recent Stonescript errors. A print command can be broken into multiple lines by using '\n' in the text. ^Back to top

·:·:· Appendix - Sound Effects ·:·:· Stonescript can play sound effects from the game, based on custom logic. In this example, the 'unequip' sound is played whenever the player loses health: var lasthp = hp ?hp < lasthp play unequip lasthp = hp Most sounds have variations that either play randomly or sequentially. If the same sound is played more than once in a single frame it will be ignored. If more than 5 sounds are played per second they will be throttled.
