The Scrolling Game Development Kit supports VBScript and COM. That means you can write script files (in Notepad or your favorite text editor or VBScript editor) that has a fine level of control over how your game operates. And the COM support means that you can access and control your game and its data from external compiled applications (for instance, applications or DLLs written in Visual Basic 6). If you're interested in getting into scripting, here are some good starting points.
- Refer to existing projects (http://gamedevprj.sourceforge.net). Nothing beats learning by example. Look for files with the VBS extension.
- Scripting resources in the online documentation (http://gamedev.sourceforge.net/Help/Script.htm) (Press F1 or look in the Help menu)
- Use the Scripting Wizard in the Tools menu of the kit.
- See the scripting section within the SourceForge documentation list (http://sourceforge.net/docman/index.php?group_id=9970)
