The Dink Network

Well, the Dink engine is capable of running more than one script at the same time. If you have two sprites with the same script attached and you'll let them say something (so they'll both do it), both sprites talk so &current_sprite works like it should. Same thing when spawn()-ing a script, it'll run simultaneously as the script it was spawned from. Like you can see in redink1's Savegame Editor; a variable has a variable-name but also a scope: the scope is either 0 meaning a global variable or the number of the script that uses it. Same thing applies to the global ones I think. I haven't tested a script that fires two arrows when Dink fires (you'd also have to set the same distance to both target sprites and so on) but I don't think it'll cause trouble for the variables involved.. but it would have to be tested to be sure.
