Beginner Tutorial: Layout of the Editor

 

D. UnrealScript

  UnrealScript is a big part of UnrealED's layout.  It is integrated into the editor, and just about everything you can think of is scriptable.  When you open up the script for something, it looks something like this:

UnrealScript

As I said, everything is scriptable.  UnrealScript is similar to C++.  If you have no education about programming whatsoever, you probably need to read a few C++ books, take a class or two, or do something before you will be able to figure out UnrealScript.  However, if you do know C++ or a similar language, UnrealScript should be very easy for you to catch on to.   Using UnrealScript you can edit every aspect of the game, make your own characters, script unique and amazing effects in your levels, and overall add to the experiance of your level or addon.

UnrealScript and the integration of it into your level, the creation of new objects, characters, and other things is an advanced topic that will be covered in the Advanced Edtiing tutorials here.

This tutorial has been completed!  Now you have been introduced to some main parts of UnrealED, so it will be easier when you start editing very soon.  The next tutorial explains the concept of 3D editing, and how to go about editing in three dimensions.  If you have never edited in 3D before, you should read it.
