using the, Player types a chat message containing string, HELP!

[Aztec_devil2000]

How do i record an integer from the message?
For example,


Event: Player says -mode 100

Where 100 is stored in to a variable and converted to integer for game purposes. All i have is Player says <Empty String> and it converts it to an integer. I don't know how to have what is said above. Thanks. +rep

• Events
  • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -mode 100 as An exact match
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set i = (Integer((Substring(mode, 5, 8))))

like this?

Does it need to be "-mode 100", i don't think that will work? I thought it was something like, "-mode " (<emptystring>)" or something....

Ok, first of all, what is the purpose of this 'mode'?

Add info about the trigger you need, please?

you could use

• Events
  • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -mode as a substring
• Conditions
  • Length of (entered chat string) greater than or equal to 6
• Actions
• Set i = (Integer((Substring(Entered Chat string, 7, Length of (entered chat string)))))

Enters "-mode" as a subtring

IF subtring(entered chat string, 1, 5) == "-mode"
THEN set mode = integer(substring(entered chat string, 7, 9)

should be like this

• Events
  • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -mode as a substring
• Conditions
  • Length of (entered chat string) greater than or equal to 6
  • subtring(entered chat string, 1, 5) is equal to -mode
• Actions
  • Set i = (Integer((Substring(Entered Chat string, 7, Length of (entered chat string)))))

you use length of chat string as an upper bound so that it can take any possible length...

and we also check if it's greater than 6 so that we are sure that it has at least a single digit after the "-mode "

Wow thanks, Works perfect!
