Variable help
|
ok using 6.24
I need to capture a person's name when they say something to me I did the below but it will not capture the name. I understand doing numbers but strings don't seem to work the same. The Var is CharacterOrder.
Pattern: %w says 'dauthr give me a torch'.
CharacterOrder = %1
After that I'll add all the things I want him to say/do but the CharacterOrder variable is always empty. Any know what I'm doing wrong
Thanks. |

If you want something in a pattern captured for further use, you need to enclose it in parentheses ()
So, your trigger command would be:
#tr {(%w) says 'dauthr give me a torch'.} {#var CharacterOrder %1}

Change your pattern like this:
(%w) says 'dauthr give me a torch'. |

DOH! Oh I feel stupid now. :) "I understand doing numbers" :P self. I guess I let the fact it was a string scare me.
*sheepish*
