This not a location. These are coordinates. I'm not going to tell you how to turn the coordinates into a locat<FONT SIZE=1>e(x,y,z)</FONT>ion. You have to figure that out for yourself.

It's true what they say: subliminal messages don't work. That's what they say, isn't it? Or maybe they say you're a moron. Either way, I'm sure that it's true.

Aside from your stupidity in not picking up on the major hint I dropped, you're also displaying your stupidity in another fashion: you're right, there's no tutorial for exactly what you're trying to do. But there is a very simple FAQ entry that shows how to make something occur at a specific set of coordinates. Yes, it's not exactly the same thing as you're trying to get to occur at your coordinates... but the point is this: it shows you how to access the location stored at a set of coordinates. If you'd think like a coder (or even just THINK), you'd realize that this is exactly what you need.

And don't tell me, "I'm just a newbie, I don't know any better." You're a newbie BECAUSE you don't know any better, and you don't know any better because you don't bother knowing any better. I come here every day, every chance I can, and tell you people these things... and you don't listen. Your problem, your stupidity. If I didn't know you were more frustated than I am, I wouldn't bother.

Since you missed my first hint, here's a sample chain of thought you might have had, if you were inclined to THINK.

Oblivian: "Oh, me. Oh, my. I'm trying to get something to happen at a particular location. I wonder how I could do that. Maybe I should check the Reference or Help File for topics that look like they have something to do with locations. Hey, that's pretty smart of me. Oh, what's this? A whole proc called locate()? Hmmm... that doesn't sound like what I need... but it does sound like it has something to do with locations, and since I can't find what I'm looking for anywhere else, I guess I should probably check it. Oh, what's this? Hey, it is exactly what I need! I guess it paid off, taking a look at this. Gosh, that was much smarter than what I usually do, which is look for something that says 'The answer to Oblivian's question', and then go and whine because I can't find it.' Gee."

Nothing, it has to do with my answer. The word you should be blindly stumbling around in search of is "Thanks."

What does this have to do with my question?

Lexy has answered your exact question twice and you haven't figured it out yet.

Your name is very appropriate.

I guess it is, and im just slow.. because i still dont get it :P

First off, I am stupid for not seeing your locat because i figured it was just a screw up. Another I overlooked looking up locate(which probably makes no sence). And finally I'm sure there have been times in your life to when u forgot about doing something(even though it is repeated about 300 times)..
Take it easy on us kids.

I used to do that. I used to be a nice person answering questions and constantly pointing out where to find basic information.

No one paid the slightest attention.

Lexy yells at people, and they pay attention.

Ya gotta go with the results.

Agreed. The problem is, when people come to the forum they expect if they post "How do I make my character fly" that instantly, 10 minutes after some hero will come and give them exact code to copy down and use. They dont expect that this forum is there so you can ask questions and LEARN from the answers, and discuss the answers. Not copy them down.

People need to grow up and learn that everything wont be handed to you on a silver plate. As for Oblivian, the hints were so obvious that a 2 year old kid could point it out. If someone makes a mistake on a forum, most likely it will be corrected. Typing in bold, a word, and bold end I have a hard time seeing how someone could make that mistake. Twice even

Like I said, I am stupid for not seeing it. I wasn't sure what to look for since(like you said) usually someone just types out the code, so I can use that. For now on though I will know what to look for :P

P.S. A two year old kid doesn't even know to speak, so don't tell me he/she can code.

I could speak when I was 2, hell, I spoke danish and english when I was 3. And what I meant was, anyone could point out that it was location you were supposed to look for

Alathon

I still haven't heard that "thank you."
