• Camera Height
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 1 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 2 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 3 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 4 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 5 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 6 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 7 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 8 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 9 as A substring
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing 0 as A substring
  • Conditions
    • (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 1)) Equal to c
  • Actions
    • Set r = (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 2, 15))))
    • Camera - Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Distance to target to r over 0.00 seconds

There were some argument about the way of the events that I made but this works fine, I tested it.

I don't get why you use an event for each number. If the player types a non-number command the real conversion would not fire, thus causing no problem.

Because he could type any number, lets say I removed the event with the number 1 then he typed c1111 then the trigger won't fire.

Ahem. Just do:

• Camera
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 9 (Gray) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 10 (Light Blue) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 11 (Dark Green) types a chat message containing c as A substring
    • Player - Player 12 (Brown) types a chat message containing c as A substring
  • Conditions
    • (Length of (Entered chat string)) Greater than 1
  • Actions
    • Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Height Offset to (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 2, (Length of (Entered chat string)))))) over 0.00 seconds

What if a player typed any word containing the letter "c", it will still fire the trigger. I think I'll have to start a thread related to strings and chat, I remeber we argued about that thing in a previous thread.

And yours will fire whenever someone types anything with a number in...

EDIT: Fixed mine. Now it will only fire if you type a valid number above 0

Thats why I added the condition

• (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 1)) Equal to c

It will always check that the letter "c" is always the first letter.

So, what if you type something like "clyde ate 3 cakes"? Mine, now I fixed it, is less bug prone and much simpler to make. For a start you don't need 120 events if you need it for 12 players.

 

[Yixx]

Use of both takes out any problem.
if you type "clyde ate 3 cakes" it will not fire, for "lyde ate 3 cakes" is not an real, thus it will return 0.00 (right?) ,
And if you type "d100" it will not fire, for the first letter is not a "c" ,
Just use both conditions, and you will be perfectly fine, though i prefer the events of Element of Water,,

I was trying to find a condition to check that the letters from 2 to the end of the string contains any number.

i actually solved this myself already. thx anyway. giving reps.

Its not a matter of solving your problem or reputation, I always go in an argue when it comes to strings.

@EoW. Ok after you fixed your trigger I think now that I understand and your triggers are right, you bested me . (+rep)
