afflictable

Replace every instance of "#abort 2" with "#EXIT".
The #ABORT command in zMud was very bad, and I would never have reccommended anyone use it. I would have structured that code as an if-else chain. CMud introduced #EXIT to leave a script immediately, #BREAK to end a loop immediately, #CONTINUE to jump to the top of a loop as its next iteration immediately, #RESULT to set the return value of a function, and #RETURN to preform a combination of #RESULT and #EXIT. These are all similar to things that have existed in C and Pascal for years, and some programmers don't even know how to write code without them.
If the snippet you posted belongs to a larger script with many more %ismember checks then you might want to look at the #SWITCH command. The purpose of this command is to make an if-else chain in a more readable fashion. It also gains some speed over the repeated #IFs because it has a smaller compiled size reducing how much interpretaion is required to find the result. Using #SWITCH would eliminate the need for #EXIT within each of the got a match script portions. |
