I've solved this problem by zs.cmd.execute (or zs.exec).
This command lets you do anything, but I don't think that it's efficient due to additional parsing.
I think that there could be functions zs.sys.x1() .. zs.sys.x99() returning two values (XStart XEnd).
Then Lua code could be like that:
| Code: |
xstart, xend = zs.sys.x1()
zs.cmd.pcol(color, xstart, xend)
|
or
| Code: |
zs.cmd.pcol(color, zs.sys.x1())
|
What do you think? |

From what I'm seeing in the docs, it appears you can get at those predefined variables simply via zs.x1(), zs.x2(), etc. When using the zs object, it will look for commands first of that name, then functions, then predefined variables. So long as you haven't created any commands or functions with the name x1, zs.x1() should find it - or you can get at it specifically just as you described via zs.sys.x1().

I doesn't work. I've just used "print(zs.sys.x1())" and got error.
Does it work with you? |

Thank you Daagar for putting me on a track to finding the solution. For anyone else searching for this, this does work in Lua for GMCP (if you have GMCP enabled and the GMCP package on your MUD is like this of course):
| Code: |
| local channel = zs.gmcp.Comm.Channel.Text.channel |
The predefined variable equivalent would be %gmcp.Comm.Channel.Text.channel in zScript. So this is an example as a guide.
Note, this does not work with the parentheses:
| Code: |
| local channel = zs.gmcp.Comm.Channel.Text.channel() |
|
