Using variable in #IF
|
Hi,
I'm not sure if I'm just not seeing the problem, but I've been on this for hours now and it's 4am now.
In Zmud, one could make a trigger
#TR {Trigger on this line} {#IF (@action) {@action}}
and if the action variable has something in it, it will trigger.
In Cmud, I've been trying to get a similar effect, however the #IF statement with the (@action) check, only appears to work if the action variable is an integer, but not a word/string. I've tried changing the different variable types as well, no difference.
Does this mean I cannot use that sort of check anymore for Cmud and should look for a different way of scripting that, or is it just a variable problem?
Thanks! |

Yep, this is a bug in 1.09. It's mentioned in my blog entry for v1.10 and is already fixed for the 1.10 version. You were correct that it was a problem with non-integer variables.

Apropro, would #If (@Boolean = true/false) work in 1.09? Because adding that small extra valuation there would not be such a too-big thing to do and it would allow me to start really use cMud.

as an aside, why use #if (@boolean = true/false)?
a boolean is either true or false anyway, so you can just do #if (@boolean) or #if (!@boolean) and you'll get the same result and save time in comparisons |

Read Zugg's response and you understand why.

Of course, this should be working in 1.10 now, so you shouldn't need the #if (@boolean = true/false) syntax. And that syntax will just cause your scripts to be a bit slower.
