Experimental Features

Experimental features can be used to enable syntax and other behavior on a per-script basis. Some of these features are new proposals that we are testing while others may have unsafe or complex elements that regular users may not need.

While we have tested the available experiments to the best of our ability, they are they are still in development. As a result, they are subject to change and may contain bugs. Experiments should be used at your own discretion.

Additionally, example scripts demonstrating usage of the available experiments can be found here.

For-Each Loop

Enable by adding using for loops to your script.

A new kind of loop syntax that stores the loop index and value in variables for convenience.

This can be used to avoid confusion when nesting multiple loops inside each other.

for {_index}, {_value} in {my list::*}:
    broadcast "%{_index}%: %{_value}%"

for each {_player} in all players:
    send "Hello %{_player}%!" to {_player}

All existing loop features are also available in this section.

Queue

Enable by adding using queues to your script.

A collection that removes elements whenever they are requested.

This is useful for processing tasks or keeping track of things that need to happen only once.

set {queue} to a new queue of "hello" and "world"

broadcast the first element of {queue}
# "hello" is now removed

broadcast the first element of {queue}
# "world" is now removed

# queue is empty

set {queue} to a new queue of all players

set {player 1} to a random element out of {queue} 
set {player 2} to a random element out of {queue}
# players 1 and 2 are guaranteed to be distinct

Queues can be looped over like a regular list.

Script Reflection

Enable by adding using script reflection to your script.

This feature includes:

• The ability to reference a script in code.
• Finding and running functions by name.
• Reading configuration files and values.

Help Us Test

We have an official Discord community for beta testing Skript's new features and releases.
