Parameters

Most of the commands require additional information to work. For example, the command create_car requires a model of the car and the coordinates of the spawn location. This additional information is called parameters. Parameters are separated from the command name by a space:

set_time_of_day 12 30

set_time_of_day sets the game clock. It needs two integer numbers, one for the hour and one for the minute, which is why it's followed by 12 and 30. When the game encounters this instruction, it will set the time of day to 12:30.

Parameters can be numbers, strings, or variables. We will discuss variables later. For now, let's focus on numbers and strings. For the purpose of this tutorial, we will call them literals.
