There's a good scripting reference at TBA, but there are differences with 4D's scripting commands. These pages aim to give an overview of these commands.
One notable difference is crafting, for which several new commands and fields have been added.
To give an example of the terms used in these pages, consider this line:
nop %actor.exp(1000)%
Here nop is the command, actor is the variable, exp is the field and 1000 is the subfield.
A character is a mob or player. The examples usually use actor when it concerns a character.
In scripts, a uid is the character '}' followed by a number. The number is the id of a character, object or room. A uid is used to manipulate what it points to, from any script.
To make it easier to debug scripts, a scripting debugger is available. It can set breakpoints, view or change variables, step through a trigger, and show the result of any scripting expression.
The commands, fields and variables are grouped alphabetically:
