Created page with "'''Block( [Variable])''' Prevents a block of code from being executed in parallel. The variable specified will be set to 1 the first time the block is entered and will not ru..."

New page

'''Block( [Variable])'''

Prevents a block of code from being executed in parallel. The variable specified will be set to 1 the first time the block is entered and will not run the code block again until the variable is reset to 0 with an Unblock command.

If the variable is already blocked, or set to 1 otherwise, the block will not execute. It's important to unblock this variable in script 0 while initializing other variables so that the first execution will work.

'''Unblock( [Variable])'''

Resets a variable used in a block to 0 in order to allow execution to continue.

===Arguments===

'''Variable''' - Variable used to track block status.

===Code Example===
<nowiki>
defnum NOT_COMPLETE 0
defnum COMPLETE 1

// Variables are defined with defvar and you have 1..255 of them
defvar ExitSwitch 1
defvar Block1 2

Initialize:
0: // Script run when the level is loaded
Set(ExitSwitch, NOT_COMPLETE);
Unblock(Block1);
End()

40: // raise exit floor with switch
Compare(ExitSwitch, COMPLETE);
If (Equal, 99);
Block(Block1);
ChangeSideTexture(1373,"SWIT1U");
AreaSound(6007,-2943,-12,300,255);
SlideFloorNice(114, -400, -64, 100, -1);
Set(ExitSwitch, COMPLETE);
Unblock(Block1);
End()

99: //Escape function
End()
</nowiki>

		+	Use the Block and Unblock command in situations where the same code can be run multiple times.

		+	* If a [[ScriptDelay\|Delay]] command is used, the code will not finish executing before the player has a chance to activate it again.
		+	* Scripts 0-200 run for all players in multiplayer. It's possible for two players to hit a switch or activate a floor plate close enough to cause parallel scripts.
		+	* Scripts commands that call another script, such as [[ScriptIf\|If]], [[ScriptGosub\|Gosub]], and [[ScriptSlideFloorNice\|SlideFloorNice]], can call the same script recursively, within loops, or as parts of other scripts that load the same script into scope multiple times.
