Problems with #IF |
Ok really sorry about 3 posts in a row but I thought that if I have a new question I should have an appropriate title. This will be my last post (for the day : ]). This has been a problem for awhile. #IF continuously does not work for me. Instead of doing the appropriate action depending on which #IF condition is satisfied, it does everything in the trigger. Here is today's example:
Trigger line: $A salve of mending sloshes about in it.$
Script:
#IF (@./Elixirs/Mending = 0) {./Elixirs/Mending = 1}
#IF (@./Elixirs/Mending = 1) {./Elixirs/Mending = 2}
#IF (@./Elixirs/Mending = 2) {./Elixirs/Mending = 3}
#IF (@./Elixirs/Mending = 3) {./Elixirs/Mending = 4}
#IF (@./Elixirs/Mending = 4) {./Elixirs/Mending = 5}
What it should be doing is when it sees mending in a vial, it will raise the number to 1 if it was previously 0, 2 if it was previously 1, etc. What it IS doing is just setting the variable to 5 (With what I'm doing it should only go to 3). Obviously I'm guessing that #IF works fine and I am doing something stupid.
For the curious I am trying to make a kind of Elixlist for people without it.
Tl;dr: What am I doing wrong with #IF? |

Because each line is firing, thus making it true for all statements. Each line in an alias/trigger/whatever is processed individually, with updated results.
Why are you not using something simple, like:
#IF (@./Elixirs/Mending>5) {#ADD @./Elixirs/Mending 1}
?

That did nothing to the variable. I think you misunderstand what I am trying to do. For example:
I have 3 mending vials in my inventory and no other vials. I probe one and get the A salve of mending sloshes about in it. line. Previously the /Elixirs/Mending variable was 0. Now I want it to be 1. If I probe another mending (or the same one) I want the variable to go from 1 to 2. Etc. |

Use the ADD without the @ something like:
Trigger line: $A salve of mending sloshes about in it.$
#ADD ./Elixirs/Mending 1 |

For what it's worth, I knew exactly what you were doing, which is why I suggested my way. :P I just made the mistake of adding the @ sign in the #ADD command. :P Oh well.
