    No thanks. The line limit is a huge put-off for me. I couldn't abide attempting to write something whilst conforming to such a seemingly pointless restriction.

    We're using the SRL-6 include, after all. It's a lot bigger than 250 lines.
    Using that logic, I could throw all my routines in a separate file, include it in my main script, and it'd be no different.

    Anyway, what do I know? Good luck to all that enter, and to the winner: share i tbed.

    That's handy to know, could easily save quite a few lines by using single lines for short if statements.

    It's not a pointless restriction, it's the restriction placed for the purpose of competition. If there were no line restriction, or if it were 1000 lines, then we'd all just be writing regular long-ass scripts and there's nothing that makes it a competition in the first place. Go take a look at one of your scripts and actually take a look at how much 250 lines really is. It's nothing to scoff at, you just have to limit your use of custom functions and procedures that make life easier but really do unnecessary things. I don't know how many scripts I've seen from various people that have functions such as "bankOpen" which then just use bankscreen.isOpen to return their variable, it's completely pointless and a waste of space.

    Maybe you could take the competition as a way to challenge your knowledge of SRL-6 as opposed to it somehow limiting you and your creativity.

    You bring up a good point about includes though, @The Mayor, would a custom include that has some basic procedures like SetupScreen()/etc be allowed? Or would every line of it count towards your script anyway?

    Quality and efficiency not quantity People write 100 line colour finding functions thinking they are l33t yet mainscreen.findObject achieves the same result.

    No! Only 1 script allowed.

    I see how it is, ignoring the rest of my comment to pick out something even I felt needed an adendum

    I couldn't find anything about using self-made includes, would this be allowed and, if it is, would this also count towards the 250 lines?

    It can't be any script that you've previously released. If it's an unreleased script, then I can't see why you can't enter it as long as it's below 250 lines.

    Well, my knowledge of scripting is getting a bit rusty because I haven't scripted intensively for about 90 days. I can't promise I'm going to deliver a nice script and I still have to figure out what I could be making that's under 250 lines... But yeah, I'm in.
