String variable question.
|
I've looked over a lot of string variables, but have not found the answer to what I need. So, hopefully I'm not reasking a question thats been asked a ton of times.
I have a string variable I have been making called "Afflictions". Below are is an example of afflictions in it.
Sadness
Dementia
Confusion
Paranoia
I need to be able to check the variable "Afflictions" and cure those items in a certain order. Lets say this order is:
Confusion
Paranoia
Sadness
Dementia
After picking through the order, I then have to be able to check the affliction for the right cure.. Lets say this is a cure list:
Confusion is cured by goldenseal
Paranoia is cured by skullcap
Sadness is cured by valerian
Dementia is cured by bloodroot
Summary: I need to check an afflictions list against an affliction order and then pick the right cure.
Thanks a ton, you guys have been great. |

#IF (%ismember("Confusion". @affliction)) {do this}
it is case sensative
then just
#DELI affliction Confusion
to remove it when it gets cured |

Set up an alternate afflictions variable, such as:
#VAR orderedafflictions {Confusion=goldenseal|Paranoia=skullcap|Sadness=valerian|Dementia=bloodroot}
Then do this:
#ALIAS cure {#LOOPDB @orderedafflictions {#IF (%ismember(%key, @affliction)) {use %val;#DELI affliction %key}}}
That'll go through the list in order. :P
