NOTES ABOUT ADDING PAGES: try not to add new pages here. Find a category in which your code fits and add it to that page.
Most of the things found here are macros (see PreprocessorRef) that must be copied into a scenario file or another file included first by the campaign, and then used in the scenario (or multiplayer map). Remember that a macro cannot be used at a point before it is defined.
Some things not to do here:
- Don't add macros that duplicate things in the core macro library.
- Don't add macros that are trivial syntax shortcuts.
- Don't write macros that generate unbalanced syntax fragments.
