[3.31] [SOLVED] Help debug my script
|
I have this alias, it adds a portal to the mapper and tells the mapper how to use it, the port alias works as needed if the db is correct.
the addport alias used to work.. here is the alias
| Code: |
<alias name="addport" id="129">
<value><![CDATA[#if (!%len( $Bag))
{
#if (%len( $Portal)) {
addport $Keyword $Portal %db(@PortalData,"Default Bag")
} {
#if (%len( $Keyword)) {
addport %replace(%replace(%zoneName( )," ",""),"'","") $Keyword %db(@PortalData, "Default Bag")
} {
#say @ansiPrefix("Portal")%ansi(11)"AddPort <Keyword> "%char(34)"<Portal Names>"%char(34)" "%char(34)"<#.Bag Names>"%char(34)" [Level] [Chaos Portal]~(244173~)is your portalbag"
}
}
} {
#addkey Portals {$Keyword} {$Portal|%if(%pos(.,$Bag),%left($Bag,%pos(.,$Bag)-1),1)|%char(34)%if(%pos(.,$Bag),%right($Bag,%pos(.,$Bag)),$Bag)%char(34)|%if(%len( $Level),$Level,1)|%if(%len($Chaos),$Chaos,0)|1|%roomkey()}
#portal {port $Keyword}
#say @ansiPrefix("Portal")@ansiHighlight("Portal Added", 11)%ansi(12)" ("@ansiHighlight(%zoneName(),15)%ansi(12)")"
}]]></value>
<arglist>Keyword, Portal, Bag, Level, Chaos</arglist>
<notes>Add A Portal To The Mapper</notes>
</alias>
|
here is what happens when I do
| Quote: |
| addport acad2 "aylorian academy portal" "1.lug" 1 |
| Code: |
| aylorian academy portal|1||lug"|1|0|1|13857 |
it is supposed to look like this
| Code: |
| aylorian academy portal|1|lug|1|0|1|33847 |
Any suggestions? The last number isnt important. its the room number its the 'bag' 1.lug
I believe it has something to do with the '.' in it but I cant seem to debug it.. |

The %if function necessarily returns a string, so explicitly adding quotes around it actually produces something like
How it ends up processed may or may not be a bug, I'll let Zugg make the final call on that.
Changing your addkey line to the following should correct the problem.
| Code: |
| #addkey Portals {$Keyword} {$Portal|%if(%pos(.,$Bag),%left($Bag,%pos(.,$Bag)-1),1)|%if(%pos(.,$Bag),%right($Bag,%pos(.,$Bag)),$Bag)|%if(%len( $Level),$Level,1)|%if(%len($Chaos),$Chaos,0)|1|%roomkey() |
Some general programming advice. You could while technically accurate, is somewhat convoluted. It makes it more difficult to debug and more prone to errors. Oftentimes you miss other efficiencies. In many cases I, and I'm sure many others, do not respond as quickly to a posting with complex code because of the time investment usually necessary to figure what it's trying to do. |

I wish I wrote this, it would make more sense to debug it if I knew what was going on.
Thanks for your help Tech |
