variable values in string names

[excaliber7388]

Why won't this work? The trigger and parameter is being received fine, it's just not writing it in to the player's strings right:

PHP Code:

for(this.i=0;this.i<26;this.i++)
      {
        if(client.varr_@this.i==0 || this.i==25)
        {
          client.varr_@this.i=params[2];
        } 
      } 


[Admins]

Must be
client.("varr_" @ this.i)

See http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Crea...ring_variables

And also, you might want to improve your styling..

[excaliber7388]

Also is it possible to add strings, like in C++ client.string1 may be 'hel' and client.string2 is 'lo' and client.string1+client.string2='hello'?

[Luigi203]

client.string1 = "hel";
client.string2 = "lo";
player.chat = client.string1 @ client.string2;

Thats what @ is. It appends two strings together.

[excaliber7388]

Well, I'm trying this, Shouldn't this work?

PHP Code:

      client.e_mail_messages=(client.e_mail_messages @ " Message: " @ client.("e_mail_" @ this.i)); 


[Bl0nkt]

You don't need parenthasis on the outside of the value.

NPC Code:

---

client.e_mail_messages = client.e_mail_messages @ " Message: " @ client.("e_mail_" @ this.i);

---

that would work.

What the hell, Hachi? It doesnt matter if he has 100 parentheses as long as he closes them up on the other side.

client.e_mail_messages=(((((client.e_mail_messages @ " Message: " @ client.("e_mail_" @ this.i))))));

would do the same thing as


client.e_mail_messages=client.e_mail_messages @ " Message: " @ client.("e_mail_" @ this.i);

To the author, what exactly are you trying to do? if client.e_mail_messages is a string list and you want to add to it use

client.e_mail_messages.add(" Message: " @ client.("e_mail_" @ this.i));

so, it will add to the actual list rather than appending to the end of the last thing in the list.

As Stefan said:

PHP Code:

this.index = 3;
client.("foo_" @ this.index) = 4; 


... would be the same as doing:

PHP Code:

client.foo_3 = 4; 


Also.

PHP Code:

this.index = 3;
client.("foo_" @ this.index).bar.baz = 4; 


... would be the same as doing:

PHP Code:

client.foo_3.bar.baz = 4;

Well, currently, I have a few problems. First, the quotes around all the variables, second word wrap isn't working, and finally, the "none" string for an empty message space isn't being read.
Test for none:
for(this.i=0;this.i<26;this.i++)
{
if(!client.("email_"@this.i)=="none")
{
client.email_messages.add(" Message: " @ client.("email_" @ this.i));
}
}
Screen shot of problem is below:

XD Still, the "" confuse me, since they seem to be comming out of no where, ad not all the strings have extra ""

The new engine, during array to string conversion, makes arrays take on an old engine "string list" appearance, i.e.

PHP Code:

this.foo = {"bar", {"baz", "rtr"}}; 


... is essentially:

PHP Code:

setstring this.foo,"bar,"baz,rtr""; 


[excaliber7388]

Is it possible to inturupt this list to make it a vertical list?
ex:
Message: "hey",
Message "whatever",
etc

[xXziroXx]

Uh..

NPC Code:

---

this.var = {"message1", "message2"};

for (i = 0; i < this.var.size(); i ++) {

  chat = this.var[i];

  sleep(3);

}

---

I dont really get what you need help with..

[excaliber7388]

it's for displaying the string in the gui, I want it to seperate, so that each new message is on a sepperate line

[xXziroXx]

If you use a GuiMLTextCtrl you can do:

NPC Code:

---

new GuiWindowCtrl( "window" )

{

  new GuiMLTextCtrl( "text1" ) {

    x = 10, y = 10;

    width = 150, height = 150;



    text = "";

  }

}

---

and to add text..

NPC Code:

---

text1.addtext( "text here", 0);

---

And will that work serverside, this is also for a chat window for an ingame DR chat, and every player will need to see what is changed.

To add to an array
obj.add("lols");

to delete
obj.remove("lols"); <--Must be inside the array

to display
message( format("%s is the first index of the array", obj[0]) );

normally, you get left over "" for some reason, it's best to trim the obj
temp.trimmedaccount = player.account.trim();
obj.add( temp.trimmedaccount );
