#VAR command and variables
|
I'm a newbie at this so bear with me.
I made a script like this.
#var wep sword
#al k {kill %1;wield @wep}
Instead of sending the word "sword" out to the mud, it sends "@wep". I checked my special characters settings in the preferences area and everything checks out ok. What am I doing wrong? Please help. Thanks.

I think you need to surround the literal value of the variable (sword) in quotes. I could be wrong, of course, but it looks like ZMud doesn't know what to do with 'sword'.

That's strange, I copy and paste it into zMUD just as you have it in your post, and it works perfectly.
Check to see if the variable wep is being created.

You're right. It DOES seem to be working now. Odd. Thanks a bunch.
