I'm not a coder so I keep my stuff pretty simple, I play Duris and I have a problem with getting a var to assign. I have an alias for a spell lets say "ab" for "cast 'acid blast' " so the alias reads ab %1;%1 = @tar ; then i have buttons for my attack spells using that variable so on the command line I should be able to put "ab mob" then all my subsequent attacks using buttons, the buttons work but the variable has nothing in it. The part that really baffles me is it worked for awhile now it don't work at all. So, whats wrong?

First of all, when assigning variables, the sytanx is:

variable=value

Second, when assigning variables, you never use the @ symbol, so...

tar=%1

instead of

%1=@tar.

That should fix your problems. If not, you'll need to post more on what's happening.

Can you post the actual code from your button? Best is to copy the XML version of the button and post it here, within code markers, like this:

I just tried the code and it worked fine for me, so me guess is that the @tar variable is no longer visible to the button or is no longer defined.

The easiest way to tell this is to look at the code for the button. If the variable shows up as red, it's not visible/accessible.

Here's the code I had
