Script source code layout
In order to make it easier to find scripts, we have agreed on a fixed naming scheme for directories and scripts.
Directories
- battlegrounds: contains scripts used in the Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch battlegrounds.
- eastern_kingdoms: contains scripts for area triggers, creatures, dungeons, instances, etc. related to the Eastern Kingdoms continent. Instances located on Eastern Kingdoms are grouped in sub-directories by instance name.
- kalimdor: contains scripts for area triggers, creatures, dungeons, instances, etc. related to the Kalimdor continent. Instances located on Kalimdor are grouped in sub-directories by instance name.
- world: contains scripts which are used on every map, and not limited to one specific zone. This includes scripts for area triggers, game objects, items, and some creatures which can be found over the world. Also, scripts for spells are stored here. Contains scripts for anything that is not related to a specified zone.
Naming Conventions
Source files should be named type_objectname.cpp where
- type is replaced by the type of object,
- and objectname is replaced by the name of the object, creature, item, or area that this script will be used by.
AddSC functions used for registering scripts to the server core should use the
form of void AddSC_filename(void);.
