Embarassingly easy script I can't figure out

[CyanideSR71]

Why won't this work?

// NPC made by Cyanide SR71
if (playerenters) {
show;
timeout=0.05;
}

if (timeout) {
tokenize level.room1names;
message #v(tokenscount);
for (i=0;i<tokenscount;i++) {
if (strequals(#s(#t(i)),#a))hidelocal;
}
if (strequals(#s(level.owneracc),#a)) hidelocal;
timeout=0.05;
}

=/ First time using commands after 1.41....

PHP Code:

// NPC made by Cyanide SR71
if (playerenters) {
show;
timeout=0.05;
}

if (timeout) {
tokenize #s(level.room1names);
message #v(tokenscount);
for (i=0;i<tokenscount;i++) {
if (strequals(#s(#t(i)),#a))hidelocal;
}
if (strequals(#s(level.owneracc),#a)) hidelocal;
timeout=0.05;
} 


Maybe that should work...

[CyanideSR71]

Nope =/. I know what the problem is... Graal won't tokenize level.room1names for some reason, but I know not how to fix it so it will.

Jadis:

dont use #s(#t(i))
just use #t(i)
it still might not work, but that is how you use tokens

Okay... Is there ANYONE here able to tokenize a defined string?

[grim_squeaker_x]

NPC Code:

---

if (created) {

  setstring test.string,a b c d e f;

  tokenize #s(test.string);

  message #v(tokenscount);

  for (i=tokenscount-1;i>=0;i++) setstring test.string,#s(test.string) #t(i);

}

---

That should make test.string into "a b c d e f f e d c b a" once it's been run...

[toad1413]

I'm guessing I should learn how to use strings...

[CyanideSR71]

Thanks!!!!
Will that work if the string is set by anohter NPC?

Of course. Your problem was that you weren't actually parsing the string - you were parsing the string variable's name because you didn't use #s.

Huh? Could you leave an example, Kai... I don't quite get what you say. You use too much jargon that we of lesser vocabulary and knowlegde of wording cannot quite grasp, and without use of simple examples; we are left in the dark...

What he's trying to say is that you were tokenizing the word level.room1names instead of the string level.room1names.

"trying"?

Alright, failing miserably.

Which could be said to mean failing miserably in the case of the average understanding threshold here.

I think it would be more accurate to describe those with such thresholds as failing miserably to understand.

Perhaps, yet the explanation is also failing miserably due to the fact that it fails to explain what you were trying to explain to a large number of people.

You assume that my intention was to help people understand, whereas in reality their confusion is no bad thing to me. If anything, it makes me appear to be more intelligent.

In that case it was the opposite of a miserable failure.

[CyanideSR71]

Ah, but those who are truely intelligent know to be able to speak to the sharper and slower alike. Being obnoxious and attempting to make yourself look better than everyone else in such a way has both been admonished by those who teach English, and makes you look like an ass.
*Waits for you to come back with some witty comeback I won't understand again, so I'll just call you an ass.*

Thanks Lady Midnight! That helps a lot!

[CyanideSR71]

Haha, I just realized I said 'come back with some witty comeback.' Redundency is fun!

}

if (timeout) {
setstring level.room1name,#a bob;
tokenize #s(level.room1names);
for (i=0;i<tokenscount;i++) {
if (strequals(#t(i),#a)) hidelocal;
}
if (strequals(#s(level.owneracc),#a)) hidelocal;
timeout=0.05;
} 


Why doesn't this work? It still won't tokenize...

[Brady2]

Jadis:

setstring level.room1name,#a bob;
tokenize #s(level.room1names);

look at it and think hard.

[CyanideSR71]

HAHAHAHA!!!! NICE!!!
Okay, it works now, but I want another NPC to set the string, and this NPC to recieve that string and follow through, but it doesn't seem to work. Would this work in online mode? (Please tell me if this is too confusing)

Indeed, and I am proud to consider myself able to do this.

No, you babble jibberish to those 99% of the people who wouldn't care to be an wordy as you are, But thanks for the tip on not tokenizing.

[CyanideSR71]

Okay, now you are an ass.

He was talking some coder jargon, Rogue. And nevetheless, if I am forced to use that, what he said was uneffective.

Your delivery of what you said.

Odd... I always though you learned from mistakes... And it helps if you know th mistake...
