Well, I've got a reasonable knowledge of ZScript nowadays.

Let's make it just the Fire Rod to start with.
When you say 'just like the Fire Rod in LA', I have played LA but not for a number of years so I was hoping you might be able to provide a description of how you want it to work.

Oh, my bad.

It shoots a ball of fire. The fire keeps travelling through enemies and bushes and stuff like that until it hits a solid surface, then it burns for about two seconds where it hits before it disappears.

EDIT: Hey, I've also got a couple script-related questions. Is there a script made that lets you talk to someone, and you can buy something from them? Not exactly a shop, but if you go up to someone, talk to them and they say "I've got a ______, would you like to buy it for ___ rupees?" Second, how do you create working shops? I don't really understand how to get that to work, and I've seen it done with a script. Lastly, what about a bunny hood item? This seems like a really easy one to make but I'm also not sure about changing Link's appearance so he's wearing the hood.

Again, all the help is really appreciated.

Hey Joe, are you still working on this? I don't know how long it takes but when you said "real quick" I assumed you'd be done by now. Sorry if I sound impatient, just want to see if you're still doing it.

[Joe123]

Oh yeah, sorry.
I was putting it off for some reason, then I was doing a load of bug verifying for ZC, and I've been out the last couple of days.
I'll see if I can write it in a few minutes when I reboot into Windows.

EDIT:
Tell you what, I lied earlier O.o
This is turning out to be damned akward to write, what with the going through enemies and the re-looping lweapons and things...

EDIT:
Alright, give it a go and let me know what you think

[Rossk]

Thanks! That's great.

It's giving me an error though. Not sure if I did something wrong or what, but it says "ERROR S10: FUNCTION CANWALK IS UNDECLARED." Hopefully that's easy to fix....

[Joe123]

Make sure to put import "std.zh" at the top of your script file. It says that in the instructions.

[Rossk]

I did. I'll double check, I might have typed it wrong or something.

[Joe123]

Oh.
What build are you using?
It'll only work in 1057 or 1065 I'm afraid.

[Rossk]

Oh, then I'll just update the build I'm using. That's no problem then. Thanks.

BTW, I've got a question. Is there some way to alter Link's speed? I'd like him to move slower normally, but I'd also like there to be a bunny hood item. If you could just make me a script to make him slower (just leave how slow blank and I'll figure it out), and then I can figure out the bunny hood.

[Joe123]

Not easily, no.
