flags and differentiating them

[Warcaptain]

ok....... im trying to make chests that when you open then set a flag that says the x,y and levelname of the cehst, like in offline mode (of course without #) but its not possible it seems

for one.... #letterhere() declarations dont work in flag setting

and another thing.. they dont work in flag detection.

i hope theres a way to do this, other than making a string array or individualy changing the flag for each chest...

[Warcaptain]

yes but there are 80 of this particular chest..


i dont want to have 80 values in a string array, that will lag...

I can't imagine it lagging too badly....Personally, Having 80 values in a string is MUCH nicerlooking than having 80 flags take up the whole window...but that's just my opinion.

Or, like Kam said...do something like

NPC Code:

---

if (playertouchsme) {

  setstring client.chest_#F_#v(x)_#v(y),open;

}

---

That Would actlike a flag, and instead of checking if it's true, you'd just check to see if it's "open"

but i want to set the flag: #co#chestx#chesty#chestlevel

so it will show up in chest list

Want me to ask stefan to add string handling in flag setting since he is adding new stuff sometime soon?
