This is a | One of the unique aspects of ZZT is its capacity to be used as a medium for publishing about ZZT itself. Various company magazines, best-practice guides, and reference encyclopedias (collections of cool things you can do) were created throughout the years. However, the drawback of publishing information in this way is that you can't get to it easily without loading the world files in ZZT and actually playing them. The Museum of ZZT File Viewer helps greatly with this visibility problem, but the content is still spread across several publications. | ||
This page will list out the topics of such files, specifically focusing on how-to guides. | |||
For company magazines, see: [[ZZT Magazine Directory]] | |||

Description: "By the time you finish playing this tutorial, you should be able to create your own simple games to start out with." | |||
Notes: Demonstrates various ZZT-OOP commands with some commentary on usage. Unlike many other worlds about ZZT, the player does not walk through the demonstrations, but rather observes from a corridor along the bottom of the screen, pressing buttons to activate the demos. Curiously, not all topics include object demonstrations. | |||

Description: "This Zzt World shows you examples of nearly every command, message, and item on the Zzt Editor!! It goes from simple to complex so no prior use of the Zzt Editor is needed to understand." | |||
Notes: This covers built-in creatures and terrain, but stops short of describing how objects work. There are multiple topics per board. There are two copies of this on the museum dated [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/EDITRAIN.ZIP 1994] and [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/ia.zip 1995], but the ZZT files are identical. | |||

Description: "Welcome to the ZZT Learner! Once you have completed your journey through this land, you should know the basics of programming objects!" | |||
Notes: This is an overview of basic ZZT-OOP object scripting. This file was locked, such that the original board names have been overwritten. The final board contains no additional content and has been omitted here. | |||
* Museum of ZZT: https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT | |||
== Contents == | |||
=== Board 1: Insane Monster === | |||
* [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT&board=1#13,22 Intro sign]: describes how to enter ZZT-OOP code in the editor and how to access the editor help. | |||
* [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT&board=1#45,4 An object called "Insane Monster"] which shoots and throws stars. | |||
=== Board 2: Moving your ZZT-OOP objects === | |||
* [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT&board=2 Intro sign]: describes object movement and the '''#cycle''' command. | |||
* A [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT&board=2#26,23 ticket booth] and a [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT&board=2#36,20 ticket taker] are present on the board, requiring you to collect 5 gems in order to access a room containing objects which in turn control the demo object. These objects do not appear to be pedagogical (which is to say, they don't necessarily teach the user how stores and ZZT flags work), since the world file is locked and nothing about their operation is described by other objects or scrolls on this board. | |||
=== Board 3: Make your objects talk! === | |||
* [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zztlearn.zip?file=ZZTLEARN.ZZT&board=3#13,22 Intro sign]: describes marquees, message boxes, and the '''/i''' command to make objects wait. | |||

Year: 1998, 2001 | |||
Description: A compilation of tricks, glitches and engine boards. | |||
Notes: There are multiple versions of this preserved, and also earlier versions which are listed in a history file but don't seem to be available. The old version lists Chronos30 and JDMSonic as authors, but Chronos30 is the only author listed on the museum. I'm going to put off looking into this for now, and just list out the contents of [https://museumofzzt.com/file/z/zeol2002.zip the latest release] as that seems to have the most utility. Descriptions and cross-referencing will have to wait another day. | |||

* Description: "The Mystical Winds Encyclopedia is a collection of various engines and some information about how they work." | |||
Notes: There are versions [https://museumofzzt.com/file/m/mwtk-enc.zip 1.0], [https://museumofzzt.com/file/m/mwencv11.zip 1.1], [https://museumofzzt.com/file/m/mwencv12.zip 1.2], [https://museumofzzt.com/file/m/Mwencv13.zip 1.3] and [https://museumofzzt.com/file/m/Mwencv14.zip 1.4] preserved on the museum site. I compiled a list of board links of the latest version, as with the Chronos30 encyclopedia. More detailed breakdowns will have to wait another day. Part C is just toolkits without commentary, but I've gone ahead with listing them because they include ZZT sound effects as well. This package also contains a number of reference docs and object libraries, which are listed out at the end of this section. | |||

Description: | Description: "Here are many kinds of tricks and techniques that may be used in ZZT. Some of them need external editors such as ZZTQED (which was used to make this world file). There are a lot of possibilities! Look at many of these programs using the editor to see how they work. If you are reimplementing ZZT, it might also help to look at these things, to see if they function properly." | ||

Latest revision as of 19:50, 25 August 2019
One of the unique aspects of ZZT is its capacity to be used as a medium for publishing about ZZT itself. Various company magazines, best-practice guides, and reference encyclopedias (collections of cool things you can do) were created throughout the years. However, the drawback of publishing information in this way is that you can't get to it easily without loading the world files in ZZT and actually playing them. The Museum of ZZT File Viewer helps greatly with this visibility problem, but the content is still spread across several publications.
This page will list out the topics of such files, specifically focusing on how-to guides.
For company magazines, see: ZZT Magazine Directory
Notes and Warnings
- For inquiries on this list, you can contact me. Keep in mind that this is mostly just hyperlinks to content on Museum of ZZT, which I have donated and submitted games to, but do not own or administer.
- The Title, Author and Year fields are taken from the Museum of ZZT directly, and could potentially change at any time. In-game copyright notices and such may be different. Worlds are listed by release date of the first version preserved.
- Files linked here may contain offensive or NSFW content. They may also contain incorrect information, or just plain bad advice (please do not use any of the ZZT anti-cheat measures described herein).

Learn ZZT
Author: Chris Jong
Year: 1992
Description: "By the time you finish playing this tutorial, you should be able to create your own simple games to start out with."
Notes: Demonstrates various ZZT-OOP commands with some commentary on usage. Unlike many other worlds about ZZT, the player does not walk through the demonstrations, but rather observes from a corridor along the bottom of the screen, pressing buttons to activate the demos. Curiously, not all topics include object demonstrations.
Contents
- Commands: Covers naming objects with @ and the :touch label.
- Commands [1]: Displaying messages (marquee text) and the #bind command.
- Commands [2]: Directions, stacking movements together (/e/e to move east twice), and the #send command.
- Commands [3]: #become and #change
- Commands [4]: #clear and #set. (Note: the ZZT flag limit is 10.)
- Commands [5]: #if, #char
- Commands [6]: #cycle, #endgame
- Commands [7]: #go, #die
- Commands [8]: #give, #idle
- Commands [9]: #play, #lock and #unlock
- Commands [10]: #put, #restart
- Commands [11]: #try, #shoot
- Commands [12]: #take, #throwstar
- (There is no 13)
- Commands [14]: #walk, Movement shortcuts
- Commands [15]: (Outro text)

ZZT Learner
Author: Mike Smith
Year: 1996
Description: "Welcome to the ZZT Learner! Once you have completed your journey through this land, you should know the basics of programming objects!"
Notes: This is an overview of basic ZZT-OOP object scripting. This file was locked, such that the original board names have been overwritten. The final board contains no additional content and has been omitted here.
Contents
Board 1: Insane Monster
- Intro sign: describes how to enter ZZT-OOP code in the editor and how to access the editor help.
- An object called "Insane Monster" which shoots and throws stars.
Board 2: Moving your ZZT-OOP objects
- Intro sign: describes object movement and the #cycle command.
- A ticket booth and a ticket taker are present on the board, requiring you to collect 5 gems in order to access a room containing objects which in turn control the demo object. These objects do not appear to be pedagogical (which is to say, they don't necessarily teach the user how stores and ZZT flags work), since the world file is locked and nothing about their operation is described by other objects or scrolls on this board.
Board 3: Make your objects talk!
- Intro sign: describes marquees, message boxes, and the /i command to make objects wait.
- Flashing Text 1
- Flashing Text 2 (consecutive marquee messages)
- Scroll Text 1
- Slow Flashing 1
- Necessary commands: Covers the following: #die, #endgame, #restart, #change, #become, and #send.

The UNOFFICIAL ZZT Programming Guide
Author: Corey "Des" Garriott
Year: 1996
Description: "Want to begin ZZT programing? This game may silence some discordant items in your games!"
Notes: Describes itself as an 'intermediate' tutorial. The preserved copy seems to start on the wrong board. This is divided into a beginner section and then an intermediate section, both available from the intro board. Additional authors listed in-game: Mark McIntire and Others.

ZZT Programming Tricks and Techniques
Author: zzo38
Year: 2018
Description: "Here are many kinds of tricks and techniques that may be used in ZZT. Some of them need external editors such as ZZTQED (which was used to make this world file). There are a lot of possibilities! Look at many of these programs using the editor to see how they work. If you are reimplementing ZZT, it might also help to look at these things, to see if they function properly."
Notes: Boards contain multiple subsections arranged by category.

What is this strange stuff???
- (Board intro) - This board links back to the Centipedes section, but I wasn't able to find a link to it in the other direction. I may have missed it, or it may be well-hidden. This board demonstrates a very odd behavior when a player is linked to a Centipede.
