Revision as of 00:18, 15 December 2010
I found that the script failed to work as-is. The condition in the onactivate block:
if xObject == 0
wasn't firing so the initial variables weren't set. I rectified it by changing the line to checking a DoOnce condition. Could someone else confirm that the original script doesn't work for them as well before I update the script? --Lanceor 10:31, 14 December 2010 (EST)
- Since the very next line of code sets xObject to something not-zero, the "if xObject == 0" acts exactly the same as a DoOnce, with the advantage (??) of not using an extra variable. Can't see how this could not work.QQuix 16:12, 14 December 2010 (EST)

- References are initialized to a null value, but that value is zero (thus if ( refVar ) is an effective way to test if a variable has been set). What is your modified code?
- PS. extra spaces between comments do make things much easier to read in the plaintext, and looks the same on the page.
