Help with a script
 
Ok, i'm working on a script for a btech MUX that will show the damage I inflicted, but i'm having a problem expanding variables that are made during the combat in the showing of damage.. Probably a really easy fix, but I can't seem to find the problem.

Here it is.

think ~[space(8)~]FRONT~[space(19)~]REAR~[space(18)~]INTERNAL~%r%t(%ch%cg$dih%cn)%t%t%t(**)%t%t%t(%b%ch%cg3%cn)%r%b%b%b%b%b/%ch%cg10%cn|%ch%cg14%cn|%ch%cg10%cn%%t%t~[space(5)~]/%b%ch%cg3%cn|%b%ch%cg4%cn|%b%ch%cg3%cn%%t%t~[space(5)~]/%b%ch%cg8%cn|%ch%cg11%cn|%b%ch%cg8%cn%%r%b%b%b%b(%ch%cg10%cn/%b||%b%%ch%cg10%cn)%t~[space(4)~](%b%b%b|%b%b|%b%b%b)%t~[space(4)~](%b%ch%cg6%cn/%b||%b%%b%ch%cg6%cn)%r%b%b%b%b%b%b/%b%b/%%b%b%%t%t%t/%b%b%%t%t%b%b%b%b%b%b/%b%b/%%b%b%%r~[space(5)~](%ch%cg13%cn/%b%b%b%%ch%cg13%cn)%t~[space(7)~]/%b%b%b%b%%t%t~[space(5)~](%b%ch%cg8%cn/%b%b%%b%ch%cg8%cn)

Ok, that's a lot of stuff there, but for those of you unfamiliar with MUX, anything following the % signs is formatting, either color, spaces, tabs, etc. I Bolded the variable i'm trying to get expanded. Once I get that one expanded, there will be many more in this scrip. Note also, my variable character is $ instead of the standard @

How about a %concat?

think %concat("~[space(8)~]FRONT~[space(19)~]REAR~[space(18)~]INTERNAL~%r%t(%ch%cg",$dih,"%cn)%t%t%t(**)%t%t%t(%b%ch%cg3%cn)%r%b%b%b%b%b/%ch%cg10%cn|%ch%cg14%cn|%ch%cg10%cn%%t%t~[space(5)~]/%b%ch%cg3%cn|%b%ch%cg4%cn|%b%ch%cg3%cn%%t%t~[space(5)~]/%b%ch%cg8%cn|%ch%cg11%cn|%b%ch%cg8%cn%%r%b%b%b%b(%ch%cg10%cn/%b||%b%%ch%cg10%cn)%t~[space(4)~](%b%b%b|%b%b|%b%b%b)%t~[space(4)~](%b%ch%cg6%cn/%b||%b%%b%ch%cg6%cn)%r%b%b%b%b%b%b/%b%b/%%b%b%%t%t%t/%b%b%%t%t%b%b%b%b%b%b/%b%b/%%b%b%%r~[space(5)~](%ch%cg13%cn/%b%b%b%%ch%cg13%cn)%t~[space(7)~]/%b%b%b%b%%t%t~[space(5)~](%b%ch%cg8%cn/%b%b%%b%ch%cg8%cn)")

Something like that - untested.
