I've been wondering is there a tradewars script that buys fuel and a product at one port twarps to another and sells it. Buy more fuel ore and product and twarp back repeating this. This is because the ISS has 3 turns per twarp and 4 turns per move in my game. Can anyone help with this???

Thats strange, I dont think you can set a ship to have different turns per warp with twarp vs manual. That script would only really be usefull early in the game before you explore much anyway.

The game I'm in is edited so I have basically an ISS but I can be evil[}:)]. It has 4 turns/warp and 3turns/Twarp. I find it odd but it works for me [:)] but where could I find info on creating a script like this if one doesn't exist???

Depends on the helper you use. Swath uses Java scripts and Rexx scripts. TWX Proxy uses its own language, easier than Java I think. J-twat only has Rexx scripts that are available separate from the program itself. Zoc uses Rexx also. Personally Rexx appears to be as confusing as Java to me.

I'm using Swath where's the best place to learn to create scripts???

I would say go to Swath's web site and post under scripts for help with it. Or try to get ahold of Mongoose, he is the king of Swath scripts.

thanx

Unless your a java nut or want to sit down for weeks to figure out java your prolly better off to see if someone will write it for you. It would be a pretty complicated script for a beginner to attempt. Good luck.

Go to: http://www.swath.net/cgi-bin/ubb/swath/ ... tion=intro and ask the SWATH Scripters for help writing it. I visited an edited game not long ago where with unlimited turns, I thought this may work... But definately not for every game...

When you say 3 for Twarp...are you referring to the ore usage? Because the different turns per warp thing for manual and Twarp sounds weird.

Like I said earlier, I dont think you can make it be different between them. A move is still a move by twarp or manually and it still uses the same turns. I think your looking at something else. I still dont think its even worth writing this script.

There is no way to set them different. I agree, I think he's looking at something else.
