There are two uses for the this keyword.
1. Accessing members of the current struct
When you are creating custom structs, you use the "this" keyword inside member
functions to refer to the current struct. For example:
Suppose you had this in your script header:
struct MyStruct {
int myValue;
import function MyMethod();
};
Then, in your main script, you could put this:
function MyStruct::MyMethod()
{
this.myValue = 5;
}
The MyStruct::MyMethod tells AGS that you are defining the function MyMethod
which belongs to the struct MyStruct (the :: operator means "belongs to").
The code above will mean that when the MyMethod function is called, it sets
the myValue variable to 5.
