What is the "metadata" keyword?

[maxi031]

I think you can not, i tried before it is declared as "something" without error but i too could not initialize it.

Try :

Code: Select all

declare metadata Integer[][][] MetaIntArray3 for Map = [[[1,10,23],[3,6,9]],[[1,2]]];
declare metadata Integer[][][] MetaIntArray4 for Map = [[[0, 1],[2, 3],[4, 5]]];

concerning

Code: Select all

// declare metadata Ident  MetaIdent  for Map;

Try:

Code: Select all

declare metadata MetaIdent  for Map = Ident;

Not sure you can store an Ident after in script (my tests on this part of maniascript are from 2012...)
Tell me if you can
Hope this help

Try :

Code: Select all

declare metadata Integer[][][] MetaIntArray3 for Map = [[[1,10,23],[3,6,9]],[[1,2]]];
declare metadata Integer[][][] MetaIntArray4 for Map = [[[0, 1],[2, 3],[4, 5]]];

This syntax works. Thank you!

It's still not possible. Do you know the declaration of Ident and NullId?

For what i know, it's possible to initialize empty type also, like spaii wrote earlier:

Code: Select all

declare persistent Vec3[Text][Text][Text] eXp_widgetLastPos = Vec3[Text][Text][Text];

works for normal persistent variables, i'm not 100% sure how it works on metadata.

you should be able to declare Ident and NullId as type:

Code: Select all

declare metadata Ident MetaIdent for Map = Ident;

This works :

Code: Select all

declare metadata Ident MetaIdent for Map = NullId;
declare metadata MetaIdentTest for Map = NullId;
declare metadata MetaIntArray3 for Map = Integer[][][];
