ByteBuffer

The ByteBuffer is the replacement for the old Stream functions it is more robust, has more features and is resistant to crashes/errors from bad information etc it works similar to the ByteBuffer in Java

NBT (Named Binary Tag)

Functions on par with Minecrafts NBT system but greatly expanded to include many additional features and improvements specific for Sputnik.

Old GUI Functions

All the functions below are part of the SputnikOldGUI.dll basically these functions are *to be* depreciated and replaced with something much better in the future.

However you can still use these and even after they have been replaced with a new GUI system you will still be able to use these functions (and GUI programs made with them) anyway by using the SputnikOldGUI.dll into your project.

To use any of these functions you must include the SputnikOldGUI.dll to do that you must add this code to the top of your script.

use('SputnikOldGUI.dll', true);

Here is an example of using "GUICreate" in a full example and including the SputnikOldGUI.dll

// Load the old GUI system
// Since this an old GUI example
use('SputnikOldGUI.dll', true);
// Create the GUI
Global $GUI = GUICreate("Window", "My Title", 200, 200);
// Create a button -- This button will simply display a message
Global $Button = GUICreate("Button", $GUI, "Press Me!", 8, 8);
// Add a link to the button
GUILink($Button, "Click", 'myFunction();'); // Call function
// Show the GUI
GUILoad( $GUI );
// Keep the GUI running as long as long as the window is open
While ( GUIStatus( $GUI ) ) 
	DoEvents( ); 
// This function is called when the button is clicked
Function myFunction()
{
	MsgBox("Hello from the button");
}

Make note however that the examples below do not include the SputnikOldGUI.dll in their scripts you must do that part yourself!.

  • Throw( <expression> ) -- Throw an exception
  • Die( <expression> ) -- Gives an error and terminates the program
  • Break( <scopes> ) -- Ends execution of the current loop
  • Continue( <scopes> ) -- Continue the execution of a loop at its next iteration
