Periods Yes CMUD hates periods
|
Here is an example of what i have been running into in scripts.
CMUD really hates periods. Aliases triggers doesnt matter it causes the compiler to get mad. THis is just an example for you to look at.
obviouslly the period in #SAY has no bering on anything but it wont compile with it even ~. so when you are debugging and it says things like UNMATCHED BRACKETS.. look for periods. I have had this happen all over the place today
ZMUD VERSION of an alias
| Code: |
#VARIABLE Found 0
#LOOP 1,%numitems( @StatusElements) {
#IF (%db( %item( @StatusElements, %repeatnum), "ID") = "%1") {#VARIABLE Found %if( @Found = %null, %repeatnum, %concat( %repeatnum, "|", @Found))}}
#IF (@Found <> %null) {
#FORALL @Found {#DELNITEM StatusElements %repeatnum}
#SAY Status text ID %1 removed from display list
recalculate
} {
#SAY Unable to find ID %1 in current status elements.
listtexts
}

WORKING CMUD VERSION
| Code: |
#VARIABLE Found 0
#LOOP 1,%numitems( @StatusElements) {
#IF (%db( %item( @StatusElements, %repeatnum), "ID") = "%1") {#VARIABLE Found %if( @Found = %null, %repeatnum, %concat( %repeatnum, "|", @Found))}}
#IF (@Found <> %null) {
#FORALL @Found {#DELNITEM StatusElements %repeatnum}
#SAY Status text ID %1 removed from display list
recalculate
} {
#SAY Unable to find ID %1 in current status elements
listtexts
}
|
What i cant figure out is it calls recalculate
heres what happens this is the code for recalculate
| Code: |
#VARIABLE TempOutput %null
#FORALL @StatusElements {#VARIABLE TempOutput %concat( %expand( @TempOutput, 1), %char( 27), "[", %repeatnum.Row, "~;", %repeatnum.Column, "f", %expand( %repeatnum.Content, 1))}
#EXECUTE %concat( "#STW ", %char( 34), %expand( @TempOutput, 1), %char( 34))
|
I type in the remtext name it should remove it but heres what i get
| Code: |
Currently defined positional status window texts are:
1:
ID: name
Row: 1
Column: 4
Content: Name: Tamlin
Status text ID name removed from display list
#VARIABLE TempOutput %null
#FORALL @StatusElements {#VARIABLE TempOutput %concat( %expand( @TempOutput, 1), %char( 27), "[", %repeatnum.Row, "~;", %repeatnum.Column, "f", %expand( %repeatnum.Content, 1))}
#EXECUTE %concat( "#STW ", %char( 34), %expand( @TempOutput, 1), %char( 34))
I am unable to comprehend what you ask.

Anyone have ideas why its not running the alias but sending the text instead? |
