Creating custom script objects

[libertasmens]

Is it possible to create custom script object classes? I want to be able to call class.function() from any script. Is this possible, or could I import the functions?

I would also like to know this.

I have not looked at this yet. The beth tutorials may have something on it.

I've been tooling around with more "conventional" programming, sort of OOP style stuff. Not sure how vast your knowledge is on Papyrus, seeing as it's relatively new, but I figured I'd report some of what I've found in case you don't.

(This is on the wiki, but just FYI) Extending a script works as follows: ScriptChild extends ScriptParent. This allows ScriptChild to access ScriptParent's functions/events. You can also override parent functions/events from the child, and you can still call the parent by using the class prefix parent.function()

Now the newer stuff, without using extend (such as with a new Utility). Using the Global flag you can have a standalone function/event which doesn't get called on an object. This is used with the scripts like Utility and Debug.

To call those functions, you just use import followed by the script name, which you're most likely aware of, or you can simply call NewScript.function()

The part that I haven't figured yet is how to get a hold of forms from within global standalone scripts.
