Related means that this cue and the referenced cue have a common ancestor instance, and the referenced cue is a direct (non-instantiated) descendant of that common ancestor.
Example chart:
This chart represents a script of 5 cues: Foo, Bar, SubBar, Baz and SubBaz. Continuous arrows denote parent-child relationship. Foo and Baz are instantiating cues (highlighted with red border). The static cues always exist, although static children of instantiating cues can never become active. Instances only exist as long as they are needed.

Here is the complete list of numeric data types and corresponding unit suffixes:
Data type | Suffix | Examples | Description |
---|---|---|---|
null | (none) | null | Converted to non-null data type of value 0 when needed. |
integer | i | 42 | 32-bit signed integer. Default for integer literals, so the suffix is not required for them. |
largeint | L | 0x1ffffffffL | Large 64-bit signed integer. |
float | f | 3.14 0x100f | 32-bit float (single precision). Default for floating point literals, so the suffix is not required for them. |
largefloat | LF | 1.5e300 LF | Large 64-bit floating point number (double precision). |
money | ct (default) | 200Cr | Money in Credits or cents, always stored in cents. Do not forget to write Cr when working with Credits. |
length | m (default) km | 500m 2.3km | Length in metres or kilometres, respectively. A length value is always stored in metres. |
angle | rad (default) deg | 90deg 3.14159rad | Angle in radians or degrees, respectively. An angle value is always stored in radians. |
hitpoints | hp | 100hp | Hit points |
time | ms s (default) min h | 800ms 1.5s 10min 24h | Time in milliseconds, seconds, minutes, or hours, respectively. A time value is always stored in seconds. |
Note |
---|
All unit data types are floating point types, except for money, which is an integer data type. |

You can build expressions by combining sub-expressions with operators. For Boolean operations, expressions are considered “false” if they are equal to zero, “true” otherwise. The following operators, delimiters, and constants are supported:
Operator / Delimiter / Constant | Type | Example | Result of example | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
null | constant | null + 1 | 1 | Null value, see above |
false | constant | 1 == 0 | false | Integer value 0, useful in Boolean expressions |
true | constant | null == 0 | true | Integer value 1, useful in Boolean expressions |
pi | constant | 2 * pi | 6.2831853rad | π as an angle (same as 180deg) |
() | delimiter | (2 + 4) * (6 + 1) | 42 | Parentheses for arithmetic grouping |
[] | delimiter | [1, 2, 2+1, 'string'] | [1, 2, 3, 'string'] | List of values (see below) |
{} | delimiter | {101, 3} | 'Some text' | Text lookup (page ID and text ID) from TextDB |
+ | unary | +21 * (+2) | 42 | Denotes positive number (no effect) |
- | unary | -(21 * -2) | 42 | Negates the following number |
not | unary | not (21 == 42) | true | Yields true if the following expression is false (equal to zero), false otherwise |
typeof | unary | typeof null typeof 0 typeof 'Hello world' | datatype.null datatype.integer datatype.string | Yields the data type of the following sub-expression |
sin | unary | sin(30deg) sin(pi) | 0.5 1.0 | Sine (function-style, parentheses required) |
cos | unary | cos(60deg) cos(pi) | 0.5 0.0 | Cosine (function-style, parentheses required) |
sqrt | unary | sqrt(2) | 1.414213LF | Square root (function-style, parentheses required) |
exp | unary | exp(1) | 2.71828LF | Exponential function (function-style, parentheses required) |
log | unary | log(8) / log(2) | 3.0LF | Natural logarithm (function-style, parentheses required) |
^ | binary | 10 ^ 3 | 1000.0LF | Power |
* | binary | 21 * 2 | 42 | Multiplication |
/ | binary | 42 / 10 | 4 | Division |
% | binary | 42 % 10 | 2 | Modulus (remainder of integer division) |
+ | binary | 1 + 1 'Hello' + ' world' | 2 'Hello world' | Addition String concatenation |
- | binary | 1 - 1 | 0 | Subtraction |
lt < (<) | binary | 1 lt 3 1 < 3 | true | Less than |
le <= | binary | 1 le 3 1 <= 3 | true | Less than or equal to |
gt > (>) | binary | 1 gt 3 1 > 3 | false | Greater than |
ge >= | binary | 1 ge 3 1 >= 3 | false | Greater than or equal to |
== | binary | 1 + 1 == 2.0 | true | Equal to |
!= | binary | 1 + 1 != 2.0 | false | Not equal to |
and | binary | true and false | false | Logical AND (strict semantics) |
or | binary | true or false | true | Logical OR (strict semantics) |
