#r

'#R(string)' is equivalent to '#I(string,int(random(0,sarraylen(string)))'

I made this example,wors fine,as Kai said:

NPC Code:

---

if(created || timeout){

setstring this.names,osrs kaimetsu stefan jagen;

message #I(this.names,int(random(0,sarraylen(this.names)))  );

}

timeout=0.05;

---

why this one don't work?

NPC Code:

---

if(created || timeout){

setstring this.names,osrs kaimetsu stefan jagen;

message #R(#s(this.names));

}

timeout=0.05;

---

I made anything wrong? if yes,i'm sorry but i still dont know how to work correctly with #R.

This is pure guesswork but I would try.

setstring this.names,"osrs","kaimetsu","stefan","jagen";

serverside only right now, and try seperating the names by commas? I'm not sure if #R seperates by spaces as well

[osrs]

hmm..now i'm more confuse about #R...

try #R(this.names)
I think your parseing the string twice, if #R works the way I think it does

#R only works serverside and online, not offline
and if it's not working online, try separating the names with commas

There is a serverside offline?

Meaning not on a server beneath a //#CLIENTSIDE comment tag... Only on the serverside, which would imply it's online... but people are sometimes not smart and think if they don't put //#CLIENTSIDE then it's serverside, even in the editor

Does it only work with random tokens for the string? if not what else could it be used for?

It seems to me, based on Kai's definition, that all #R does is select a random string from an array of strings. Probably helpful for a card game where you want to draw a random card. I've never seen or used the function myself though... but the definition indicates that it would only work with random tokens otherwise it wouldn't be #R, you could use #s or #t for whatever script you need.
