Possible way to do this?
|
I want to embed some MXP triggers into some auction bidding.. so far, so good.. now comes to fun part..
I want to condense the trigger some, and user-defined functions *seem* to be the way to go.. so here is the question.
lets say I do @minbid(500), (where 500 is the current bid)
now, if it's less than 5000, I want @minbid to return 500+100, or 600, however, if it's between 5001 and 50000, I want it to return the bid+1000, etc.. so I can modify the function if I want, without having to modify it in 3 or 4 different places (because the auction text changes, depending on the state of the auction)
For now, I've just put #IF statements in each trigger, but thats a kludgy way of doing it, when I am pretty sure it's possible to remove the #IF and just use a user-defined function.
But, the helpfile is quite sparse on how to actually USE a user-defined function.
Thnx

User-defined functions don't eliminate the #IF statements, they just move them to the function where they become %if. Unless you can figure out an actual formula, the only choice is to define ranges.
#FUN minbid %if( %1 < 5000, %eval( %1 + 100), %if( %1 < 50000, %eval( %1 + 1000), too much)) |
