Apply Action Scripts as Content Scripts

[Rodak]

This is useless.

I mean, I only stumbled upon the need while making the VFX Editor Guide.

But... If you have an action script you want to put in the content slot of an event without wasting the memory to copy and paste it, then convert it to a content script... I have a way.

Just go to the Action script, change it to a content script and then put it in the content slot of your event (Thank You so much Island Jack for pointing out the suggestive nomenclature we've all been using without openly discussing!).

Then go back to the script and change it to an Action script again.

It is still in the content slot (tee-hee) of the event and Not greyed out.

I tested this in both "Test Play" and "Real Play" and it works.

The reverse, of course, does not work.

This only saves a little memory, and has limited uses... But it's Nifty Darn It!

Peace.

well thats pretty neat, but what kind of action script did you make? It all depends if you can do the same thing in the content script as well.

Yup, limited use.

Yeah, It's just a memory saver for those who like to recycle scripts.

I obviously was using it for screen displays of VFX as I stumbled on it while making the VFX Editor Guide.

Peace.
