I cant seem to get it to work. your way didnt seem to make this.damagebase equal anything but null no matter which way i tried it. so perhaps im doing it wrong. i also tried doing both:
PHP Code:
this.damagebase = "client.stats_" @ client.weapon_damagebase;
makevar(this.damagebase);
player.chat = this.damagebase;
and
PHP Code:
this.damagebase = "client.stats_" @ client.weapon_damagebase;
makevar("this.damagebase");
player.chat = this.damagebase;
to see if that would even work, but my char still said "client.stats_strength" instead of the actual value stored in client.stats_strength.
Also, why is your first example preferred over the second? Is it more versatile, or is it just outdated (i.e. gs1)?
