| Hi all,
I have a question for this coding method, please kindly advice, thanks.
Case:
Trigger - > Skill: Unarmed - 100 lv
Sword - 120 lv
Pattern %1 = skill name, %2 = lv
local a = tostring("lv_" .. "%1")
local b = "%2"
SetVariables(a , b)
The Variables set in Mushclient was
Name : "lv_Sword"
Value: "120"
however this only use in Mush Global Var, how can I perform the same effect but only save in Lua Global Var?
what I want is
"lv_unarmed" - "100"
"lv_sword" - "120"
"lv_xxxx" - "xxx"
Normal Global var set in lua is
, but this will occur error
tostring("lv_" .. "%1") = "%2"
Do there any method can write in this way? I want to write in seperate var, not in Lua table. | | Top |

| %x expansion happens before the script engine is run, so you can just do
But I think you should reconsider the decision to not do it inside a table. A table would guarantee that you can easily keep track of all of your dynamically created variables. |

| Thanks, it's work, but a problem again.
For the skill name
1. Sword
2. Unarmed
3. Axe
This 3 cap in the code below is work,
but for this case won't be work, it occur error base on "=" & "-"
1. Big-sword
2. Big-Axe
I cannot cap in Lua Global Var "lv_Big-Axe"
Error Message:
[String "Trigger: "]:3: '=' expected near '-'
-_-"

| | You're probably going to need to use the dostring function. Again, I think you should reconsider using table members. |

| I strongly agree with Fiendish here. You are better off making a table and indexing into it. Then you can do this...
skills = skills or {} -- make table if necessary
test = "Big-sword"
skills [test] = 42
Or even:
skills ["Big-sword"] = 42
However if you *must* use global variables <sigh> then you can do this:
However I warn you that it is easy to serialize (save for tomorrow) a normal table, not the _G table. |
