In experimenting with the Quickscript functions I found a number of errors in the documentation which can cause significant issues for users:
Spin Rotates the objects in a frame in turn.
Syntax: spinCycle(inObject, animLength, scaleAmnt, trail)
"scaleAmnt" is erroneus in the above.
Fade Rotates the objects in a frame, in turn.
Syntax: scaleCycle(inObject, animLength, trail)
"Rotates" is erroneous, and the function name is "fadeCycle, not "scaleCycle."
Flare Applies a flare of a chosen colour to each object in a frame in turn
Syntax: flareCycle(inObject, animLength, flareColour, trail)
Script function is "flareWave," not "flareCycle"
While the last one may be operator error, spinCycle calls this error:
Welcome,Cycle - Spin 11 [22] : Object Not Found : The called object is not a valid object type (undefined? null?)
I've attached a demo program with these functions working properly and the referenced error.
There is a lot of potential for these functions and I appreciate their inclusion. It would help to have these documentation errors corrected.
