63    @brief
64        The Script class lets you execute a piece of code, either the normal way or in lua, through XML. It can be specified whether the code is executed upon loading (creation) of the object. Additionally the code is executed each time a trigger event comes in.
65        There are three parameters:
66        - @b code The code that should be executed.
67        - @b mode The mode, specifying whether the set code should be executed the normal way (<em>normal</em>) or in lua (<em>lua</em>). Default is <em>normal</em>.
68        - @b onLoad Whether the code is executed upon loading (creation) of this object. If this is set the code is executed ofr all players, regardless of the value of parameter <em>forAll</em>. Default is true.
69        - @b needsGraphics Whether the code needs graphics to be executed or not. Default is false.
70        - @b forAll Whether the code is executed for all players each time the Script is triggered or jut for the player triggering the Script. If forAll is false, which is default, the event that triggers the Script must come from a @ref orxonox::PlayerTrigger "PlayerTrigger".
71
72        Here are two examples illustrating the usage:
73        @code
74        <Script code="showGUI QuestGUI" needsGraphics=true />
75        @endcode
76        This would show the QuestGUI opon creation of the object. The <em>mode</em> is <em>normal</em>, not specified here since that is the default, also <em>onLoad</em> is true, also not specified, since it is the default as well. Also <em>needsGraphics</em> is set to true because showGUI needs graphics to work.
77
78        @code
79        <Script code="hideGUI QuestGUI" mode="normal" onLoad="false" needsGraphics=true >
80            <events>
81                <trigger>
82                    <DistanceTrigger distance=10 target="Pawn" />
83                </trigger>
84            </events>
85        </Script>
86        @endcode
87        This would hide the QuestGUI as soon as a @ref orxonox::Pawn "Pawn" got in range of the @ref orxonox::DistanceTrigger "DistanceTrigger". The mode is <em>normal</em>, it is specified here, but could be ommitted as well, since it is the default. <em>OnLoad</em> is false, that is why it can't be ommitted. Also <em>needsGraphics</em> is set to true because showGUI needs graphics to work.
