Chat Problem

[Nichita_00]

Uhh ok, there are many triggered chat-related threads, but NONE answers my question. I am trying to do a triggered chat (without disabling the normal one ) using substrings (Gahh how to put those images showing triggers @_@).It works like in SotDRP, using a . , but the problem is that if i use the point anywhere, it shows up (substring :C) and if i change it to "matched" (with the appropiate conditions and actions) it stops working, or only the "." has an effect.I can't get the damn thing work ONLY if the point is the first character in the entered string :S

well as you already said, your probably like the 100000 dude who asks this question.

The answer is your question: Just combine "." and "substring" and "at the beginning of the string".

You just have to check, if the substring from 1 to 1 of the entered chat string is ".", then you return your actions.

I can make it for you I think, never tried it though.

EDIT:

• Chat
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing . as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing . as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing . as A substring
    • Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing . as A substring
  • Conditions
    • (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 1)) Equal to .
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Triggering player)) + (: + (Substring((Entered chat string), 2, 100))))

Also added a map to this post. You can also edit it to show colors etc, but I'm to lazy to do that.

Its better to change this part

Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Triggering player)) + (:  + (Substring((Entered chat string), 2, 100))))

to

Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Triggering player)) + (:  + (Substring((Entered chat string), 2, Lenght of Entered Chat String))))

Thanks, I will now try to do teh color thingy (I will use liek for every player a diff trigger with diff color code :S)

I have just what you need! W8 let me get my trigger.

EDIT:

• Initialization
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set PlayerColor[1] = |c00ff0303
    • Set PlayerColor[2] = |c000042ff
    • Set PlayerColor[3] = |c001ce6b9
    • Set PlayerColor[4] = |c00540081
    • Set PlayerColor[5] = |c00fffc01
    • Set PlayerColor[6] = |c00ff8000
    • Set PlayerColor[7] = |c0020c000
    • Set PlayerColor[8] = |c00e55bb0
    • Set PlayerColor[9] = |c00959697
    • Set PlayerColor[10] = |c007ebff1
    • Set PlayerColor[11] = |c00106246
    • Set PlayerColor[12] = |c004e2a04
    • Set PlayerColor[13] = |c00272727
    • Set PlayerColor[14] = |c00caedf4

Just put PlayerColor[x] in front of the text, you can make x for example: number of etc.

Ofcourse you can. It's your thread. It's actually better than spamming multiply threads.
