Introduction:

A powerful command that allows you to create roofs for houses in about 3 clicks. A gump is provided allowing the user to select both type, direction, and the base z-height of the roof. The base z-height is the height of the lowest portion of the roof, the first row of tiles. Then you select opposing corners of the structure you wish to build the roof on. Currently you can only create rectangular roofs in either direction.

Syntax:

".createroof"

Description:

• You can target any two corners of the "box" to select items.
  
• Uses a "nudge tool" which is a gump interface that after roof creation allows manipulating the items in any direction as many times as needed.
  
• Has a detailed help section built into the gump to assist users.
  
• Can create a roof of the following types:
  • Log Roof
  • Palm Frond
  • Blue Slate
  • Blue Tent
  • Grey Tent
  • Thatch
  • Red Tile
  • Wood Shingle

Tip: If the file looks "jumbled" or "messy" in your text-editor of choice, scroll down for an alternative version saved in PC-format. Download and try this one first though!

quickie, if you change those SendDialogGump calls (just remove the 2 zeroes (0)) it works 100% on pol095

Good to know.

I didn't have the resources, or really the time to make sure if it would work on 95, so I just thought it safest to say 96 only.

I was thinking about using this after what DeiviD but holy shit its a mess, id rather not look thru the file... I wish it wassnt so messy though thats an awesome command!

What exactly do you mean by a "mess"?

All I can say is WOW. This is very nice, the one thing I hated about building made alot easier, now that is nice.

The script does everything one would need and the changes to make it work with 95 is nothing. It took me roughly 3 minutes.

maybe he opened it on notepad hehe
Seems to be stored in unix format I guess.

Yes, it is stored in UNIX format.

I suppose if someone wants it, and all they have is Notepad (should seriously get a better text editor!), then here is a copy stored in PC format.

Created roofs are very simple, I rarely use this command. But you made great function and gump for moving roof, I used this part of code in many other commands (eg. makeset). Thanks!
