ok i have 4 chars
my leader tank is going to say role call and the other chars all respond here.
it comes in on 3 different lines
what i want to do is if they don't all answer have my mage run a macro called gather party which teleports him to the leader then summons the other 2 chars.

You say: role call
> << Night >> here
<< Memphis >> here
<< Trixen >> here

some times it looks like this some times there are other lines of text between the responses.

Thanks for any help.

The approach I would take is to do this.

1. Make a list of every one in your party
2. Just before role call make a copy of that list
3. Trigger the role call and remove each member from the temp copy
4. If after roll call the temp copy is not empty, call you macro to gather the party.

i did what you suggested and it works marvelous. i create string list and add all the names then call role and delete everyone who answers.

how to i then get the vaules out of the array of unknown length and stop when i am done?

i would think that i need to look at the first index and summon that person then delete them then ????

is there a command that will check the array to see if its empty?

#DELITEM varnamewithoutthe@ member

#IF (@arrayname) {will return true if it has any value other than 0}

could also use #WHILE (@arrayname >0) {dostuff}

You could also use %numitems(@arrayname) to check the size, and to look at first index then access it and delete it use the %pop() function. Does exactly what you want.
