Help with String lists!
|
So, I'm basically looking to fire off items from a string list, but I don't want my #forall command to fire them all off at once, this is what I'm looking at right now. It works, though I know right now focuswait isnt doing anything useful, I left them there for when I figure it out.
| Quote: |
#if (@focus=1 and @focuswait=0) {#forall @currentaffs {
#if %pos( %i, @currentaffs) {%i.afflist}
focuswait=1
#alarm +0.1 {focuswait=0}
}}
|
So, I want this alias to fire off only the first item on said stringlist (Currentaffs) with the appropriate key in AFFLIST. There is a longer route to doing this, but will take years off my life.
The second problem, one I'd solved before and thought I still knew the answer to, is the part of the script {%i.afflist}. I want to fire off the key thats associated with the first thing in currentaffs. So, for example, BLEEDING is the first thing in my currentaffs, and I have a key in AFFLIST that is Key=Bleeding Value="Focus Body". I thought I could just execute them like I have above, but it doesn't work that way.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

| Code: |
| #IF (@focus and !@focuswait) {#SEND %db(@afflist, %pop(@currentaffs));focuswait=1;#ALARM +0.1 {focuswait=0}} |
That'll only send the first item in currentaffs, utilizing the afflist database and sending the command you have for it. |

Doesnt %pop delete the item though? I dont want the item to be deleted until I get the appropriate cure message for it. Any work around the %pop?
I would have done something similar, but the dilemma is when I cure, it may cure something else, or it may be interrupted, so for the item to be deleted before I have the appropriate message would be detrimental to my cause. |

Just use %item(@currentaffs,1) then.

the item thing is useful, except that I need to be able to draw the value from afflist. Any help on that? using a combination of the above and below, replacing pop, I get nothing. It fires, but doesn't find anything for some reason.
I'm basically looking to take the first item from currentaffs and fire off the corresponding value in a separate rec variable.
Edit:
So I've come this far. I think I've got it figured out, I'll post back with the results. |

What Daern means is replace where I have %pop with the %item.

So, in case anyone perusing this thread wants to know what I did, it's this.
| Quote: |
#if (@focus=1 and @focuswait=0) {
#if (@currentaffs!=%null) {
#exec %db( @afflist, %item( @currentaffs, 1))
focuswait=1
#alarm +0.1 {focuswait=0}
}
}
|
Works fabulously. Thanks guys! |
