help with pattern
|
this is the pattern im trying to use
~(~A~)(*)
#if (%1 != @mob) {#var mob 1}
basically, i want the var mob to be set to 1 if %1 doesn't match @mob, but @mob can be 7 words with ()/, ect. so i tried to put "" around @mob, didnt work. i tried using =~ without any luck. origianlly i had %w in the pattern, but since that only matched the first word, something like -=-=\name would trip it up so i switched to a *. |

Have you tried quotes around the %1 ?
#IF ("%1" != @mob) {#VAR mob 1}
Syntax Colourizer |

"%1" means that it will take 1 word or 1,000,000,000 words.
it's like a capture all in between thing |

Yep. The quotes make sure mutliple info is grouped together into the %1 paramter. Otherwise, when you check the parameter it may only return the first item in the parameter instead of everything.
