I asked Suma about our idea and this is what he replied with: | |||
Our guidelines are: | |||
sqs = old syntax | |||
sqf = new syntax | |||
There are even many instances where you can either use a sqs or a sqf file, and both are scrips (init.sqf, initintro.sqf, exit.sqf). | |||

I will post more detail within this article. It's contrary to my original thoughts, but I guess anything is fine by me as it is all cosmetic. I will try and be as detailed as possible in my explanation for the newbies. It probably should be spread around via word of mouth a little also. - [[User:CrashDome|CrashDome]] 15:48, 15 December 2006 (CET) | |||
Revision as of 15:48, 15 December 2006
Sleep can be used only in functions, not scripts
Functions - SQF:"Starting with Armed Assault even function based scripts can wait suspended using sleep or waitUntil." --Djura 11:03, 24 July 2006 (CEST)
Confusing: sqs and sqf Scripts
Alot of people talk about how old scripts versus new "SQF-tyle scripts" are confusing everyone. Perhaps we delineate what we are refering to by addressing them as OFP Scripts and ARMA Scripts? I only say this because a disclaimer on a page that led me here was really confusing even to me (confusing disclaimer). --CrashDome 19:01, 12 December 2006 (CET)
- Yep, you're right on that one, I was also already thinking about it. Problem: Even in the ArmA community sqs scripts are rather wide spread, only advanced scripters seem to use or even know sqf scripts...
- True, but by refering to ArmA related sqs files as "OFP scripts" we are even suggesting the inherent age of them. Perhaps it will further boost the idea that they suck compared to the other styles ;) --CrashDome 18:43, 13 December 2006 (CET)
