startswith ?

[Spectre1337]

I have never learned how to use that command, and now I need it..

Can someone just explain how to use it? Is it like

NPC Code:

---

if (startswith(#l,level){say2 You are in level-blah.graal;} 

---

if (startswith(level,#L)){say2 You are in level-blah.graal;}

or u could simply do

NPC Code:

---

if (startswith(level,#L)){say2 You are in #L;} 

---

but im not sure of ur case

X.X this is Projectshifter btw, my account is not working!

startswith would be used like if you want to make like a warpto script:

NPC Code:

---

if (playerchats && startswith(#c,warp))

{ tokenize #c;

  this.x=#t(1);

  this.y=#t(2);

  setstring client.level,#t(3);

  freezeplayer 1;

  sleep 1;

  setlevel2 this.x,this.y,#s(client.level);

}

---

a bit of extra stuff, but it says that if the string starts with what you specify. Your string:

NPC Code:

---

if (startswith(#L,level)){say2 You are in level-blah.graal;}

---

would make it so that if the level started with level then it would perform the action. #L needs to be capital, and it does the Level of the NPC, on an NPC Server you would want to use #F. You need to put a second end paranthese ')' to end the if statement not just the startswith.

i said that k? but u added extra hehe <3

To be honest, I don't know tokensize or t things either.
Back when everyone was learning to script, I was eating pizza.

Sorry

[RavenTelvecho]

if (playerchats && startswith(#c,warp))
{ tokenize #c;
this.x=#t(1);
this.y=#t(2);
setstring client.level,#t(3);
freezeplayer 1;
sleep 1;
setlevel2 this.x,this.y,#s(client.level);
}

tokenize #c;
divides str [#c] into words (tokens) which can be read with
#t(index)

so for example:
if (playerenters||timeout) {
message #v(this.x);
timeout=.05;
}
if (playerchats) {tokenize #c;
this.x=strtofloat(#t(6));
}

and i said "HELLO Frank, how are you? Im 8"

this.x would equal 8

also notice the strtofloat on #t(6), its cause i already knew that index of 6 would be a number... just an example to get u started...

index always starts from 0

Let's forget it's
"startswith(start,#thing)"

[screen_name]

startswith(text,stringname) <-correct syntax

[zorakid2001]

how come everyone votes bad for me? Anyways.. on the command list in the npc script window thing then theres a list of scripts and their correct syntax so check that before you post a problem! unless your like me and are too lazy to read the syntax and decide to make a big long thread =D its all good

Geez, thank you. I thought I was going crazy seeing everyone else do it the other way around.
