Tinker Gnome speech
|
Ok, this is quite simple, and I should be able to get this to work but I can't. I want to create a simple alias, that when my character talks, all of the words are squished together in one long word/sentence like how tinker gnomes talk in some fantasy novels. See example below:
Normal speech:
I want to talk like a gnome!
Would turn into this:
Iwanttotalklikeagnome!
I tried using a simple %replace to switch all spaces with no spaces, but I couldn't get it to work. Any help would be appreciated. |

#ALIAS gnomesay {say %replace( %-1, " ", "")}
This works for me at least, what problem were you having with it? |

Ok, that works actually, but commas seem to mess it up. Is the comma used for something else?

Why concat? Quoteing it just keeps the part of the comma in the string as being interpreted as a value for the function
