Funny variable thingy...
|
I have stuff for setting vars on and off.. Toggles for things like rescuing and such..
Have an alias "toggle":
#if (@%1) {#var %-1 0;#show %proper( %-1) off.} {#var %-1 1;#show %proper( %-1) on.}
Now, I have a var named "guild", which represents the guild of the current char I'm playing, in this example it'll just have the value "sorc".
Now, I wanted to have guild-specific toggles, so I made an alias "guildtoggle":
toggle %concat(@guild, %1)
However this doesn't work.. For some reason.. I get:
Cmd: guildtoggle targeting
Sorctargeting off.
Cmd: guildtoggle targeting
Sorctargeting off.
Cmd: guildtoggle targeting
Sorctargeting off.
Cmd: guildtoggle targeting
Sorctargeting off.
However, if I use the normal toggle, with the "sorctargeting" argument I get:
Cmd: toggle targeting
Sorctargeting off.
Cmd: toggle targeting
Sorctargeting on.
Cmd: toggle targeting
Sorctargeting off.
Cmd: toggle targeting
Sorctargeting on.
Hm.. Seems very odd to me :) |

Don't use %-1 as a variable name. %-1 can include multiple words which isn't desirable. Use %1.
Your problem has to do with variable expansion/evaluation. Do it the "easy" way: Instead of calling the 'toggle' alias, write 'guildtoggle' as a standalone script.
#AL guildtoggle {#IF (@{@{guild}%1}) {#VAR {@{guild}%1} 0;#SAY @{guild}%1 off} {#VAR {@{guild}%1} 1;#SAY @{guild}%1 on}} |

Tried to make that alias you wrote there, I get the same result as calling toggle :)
cmd: guildtoggle targeting
sorctargeting on
cmd: guildtoggle targeting
sorctargeting on
cmd: guildtoggle targeting
sorctargeting on

That's too bad. It works for me, I tested it before I posted it. I also just tested it again and it still works.
It's not hard to "make that alias". All you have to do is use your mouse to copy the entire alias and then paste it into your command line. Press the ENTER key and the alias is made. You can then use the Settings Editor to change its name or make any other changes you might want. |

Which was exactly what I did, hmm, well, if it works with you, it must be something else conflicing.. Guess I'll try and figure it out.
