I script from 3 years but I have never used "enum".
Someone can explain me how to use it?

I am not sure what you are talking about here.

Can you explain a little better what you mean by enum?

Is it EnumerateOnlineCharacters?
Is it EnumerateItemsInContainer?

Those are the only things I can think of that have that in it.

enumerator is a language feature used to define a set of constants. It is usually used when you have to declare more than 4 constants, instead of typing const a hundred times, you define an enumerator in the form:

Code: Select all

enum <enum_name>
	CONST_NAME1 := <value>,
	CONST_NAME2 := <value>,
	CONST_NAME3 := <value>,
	CONST_NAME4 := <value>
endenum

<enum_name> any string value name such as MY_ENUMARATION, and <value>, whatever can be defined as a constant.

edit: you can check the distro SVN repository for more examples.
