Dialog selection isn't efficient enough. You do checks even after the clicked button is found.

It's spelled "experience", not experiance

Your second trigger isn't properly posted. It isn't displaying the proper way.

Otherwise it looks fine. I might dl and test later

The way you posted Triggers are like....

You're doing too much work when trying to detect the clicked dialog button and also for the dialog modes. Set the if/then/elses inside each other.

Optionally you could use hashtables and get the handle id of the clicked button to know which button was clicked. You could store the needed data using the button's id as parent key.

i havent touched hashtables so id rather not

why put the if/then/else inside each other it does the same thing

 

[Jazztastic]

Well Millzy i just wrote a tut for hashtables Check it out https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums...3/complete-beginners-guide-hashtables-197381/

It certainly does not. If the first button is clicked, you find that out in the first if-block. But then you uselessly re-evaluate all the remaining buttons to see if you clicked them. If you put each block in its preceding block's "Else - Actions" you can avoid such redundancy.

You could save all buttons in variables and detect which one is clicked and set the variable to the number of that button.

Ah it seams that someone actually read tutorials
Thanks for credits.

This is more like a template and another example of the tutorial made by -Kobas-. Unless you actually turn this into a system where users can call functions and such instead of directly editing the trigger, I'm going to have to send this to substandard.

@KILLCIDE what do u mean call functions instead of adding what they want to the dialog boxxes????
