#IF scripting problem
|
If @people is a string array
why doesn't the expression
#IF ((@bot = 1) & (@people !=~ %1))
work?
It also sends a bunch of junk that looks like part of the array screen to the mud |

Probably because %1 isn't a string array. What's the rest of the script?

%1 is a value in the string array
What I'm trying to do is this if I have
Bob, Joe, and Sue as values in the string array if %1 wich will be a string doesn't match bob, joe, or sue and the bot value is true I want it to execute certain commands |

%ismember is the answer.

Perhaps he means a list. In which case he would be much better served using the %ismember function. Example:
#IF ((@bot = 1) & !(%ismember("%1",@people))) |

Don't forget that case matters with %ismember.
#SH %ismember("bob","Bob|Mary|Sue")
0
#SH %ismember("Bob","Bob|Mary|Sue")
1

indeed, that can be a pesky problem. If I read you right, you're having it first see if the Bot is on (@BOT=1)
You had #IF ((@bot = 1) & !(%ismember("%1",@people)))
I would use
#IF (@bot) {#IF (%ismember( %lower( %1), @people)) {
TRUE
} {
FALSE
}}
This is basically "IF @Bot <> 0" then check "IF %1 (lowercase) is a member of @people." Still, it's case-sensitive, but if all your entries of @people are lowercase, wouldn't be a problem.
Hope this works for you
