Hi all!

I love this place. Everybody knows waaaay more than me. Smile

I've got a question about Buttons and alias'.

Here's what I want to do. I want to make an alias that will make space combat a little easer for me. For instance... I've made an alias for evade <object>, so now it's "e <object>. Of course you can probably see the problem now. "e" is also the alias for "east".

So thinking I could fix it by making a button to turn it on when I'm at the helm and off when I was out exploring... I made a toggle button and attached this alias to it...

ALIAS e

VALUE (@helmbut) {evade %1}

But now it not only shuts of the alias, but it won't let e go back to it's original value. (If I manually turn parsing off it will go back to it's original value... i think the answer is there somewhere, but it elludes me).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks once again in advance,

Tygerhart

Good start, it just went awriy
There are several ways to do this
1)#alias e {evade %1}
put this into your toggle button:
on: #t+ e off: #t- e

2)#alias ev {evade %1}
which will skip the need for a toggle switch.

theres more but you get the idea.
