Stringlist / Expanding Variables
|
Is there a way to expand variables in a stringlist? I've spent the better part of 2 hours reading help's / faq's / and testing.... It's late here, can someone point it out so I can smack my forehead and say "DOH!"
ex.
#VAR ATTACKMOVES {@flyingkick|@barefists|@leadpipe}
#1 {%item( @ATTACKMOVES, %random( 1, 3))}
I tried " " { } [ ] ( ) < > and varied combos.
Laugh at me if it is simple, laugh at me if it can't be done :)
Thankyou again in advance :)

What you have there, #VAR ATTACKMOVES {@flyingkick|@barefists|@leadpipe} should work. it should expand the variables automatically and set @Attackmoves properly.

If your wanting to send it to the mud you could try
#EXEC {%item(@AttackMoves,%random(1,3))}
other wise try %exec(), %expand() may also be helpful. |

If don't want the variables to be expanded before you select one of the three variables at random, and then expand them, you could try this:
#1 %eval(@%item( {flyingkick|barefists|leadpipe}, 3)) |
