simple variable expansion issues |
this one is probably really simple but i cant figure it out.
Code: |
#button @character_name @character_name {@character_name+login} |
the button name and id expand properly but the command comes out as @character_name+login not player+login.
it's also occuring when i'm trying to create an alias...
Code: |
#alias @character_name+login {#class @character_name 0} |
neither variables expand either.
i've used %concat and %expand to expand the #alias name successfully but they dont work inside the {}... i'm missing something fundamental here.

Buttons are best made in the gui for this very reason.

Would this help?
#alias @character_name+login {#var Exec_charname "~#class ~@character_name 0";#exec @Exec_charname} |

nods shalimar, that was my work around, but it's the variables inside the {dostuff} string that are giving me problems.
scirkhan, i see what you're aiming at but i cant get it to work yet, the {dostuff} still comes out #class @character_name 0 instead of #class player 0. i'll keep plugging. |

Try using a #FUNC instead of a #VAR?
