Here you can try the commands out. When you switch from one to the other, there is a repetition of the first one. It seems that before switching the variable, the ColourTell is executed. Is there a way to fix this? | Top |

| Change '"@Var"' to 'GetVariable("Var")' and it should work how you want it. | Top |

| LezChap is correct.
Reason it works that way is because 'Send to:' functionality, before running the script, replaces any @variable notations to be filled with their actual values. And only then will it let the script run. | Top |

| You can also shorten your ColourTell, ColourTell, Note to just one ColourNote. You can repeat the foreground, background, text parameters as many times as you like in a single call, so it would like like this:
ColourNote("black", "cornflowerblue", GetVariable("venom1"), "black", "royalblue", GetVariable("venom2"))
