Tokens?

[Astram]

How do I use tokens? I usually see these in a lot of scripts, I belive it expands the playerchat, like
Hi, how are you?

temp.token1 = Hi,
temp.token2 = how
So on...
Im not sure if this is the correct variable usage but, however I see this alot...
Please Help

Syntax: string.tokenize([delimiter])

delimiter - (Optional) string to break the string into tokens by, if you don't specify a delimiter it will be break it apart based on a space.

Examples:

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  // Tokenize string with no passed delimiter.
  temp.str = "Hello World!";
  temp.tokens = temp.str.tokenize();
  echo("tokens[0]" SPC temp.tokens[0]);
  echo("tokens[1]" SPC temp.tokens[1]);

  // Tokenize string with # passed as the delimiter.
  temp.str = "Hello#World!";
  temp.tokens = temp.str.tokenize("#");
  echo("tokens[0]" SPC temp.tokens[0]);
  echo("tokens[1]" SPC temp.tokens[1]);
}

  temp.tokens = temp.str.tokenize("#");
  echo("tokens[0]" SPC temp.tokens[0]);
  echo("tokens[1]" SPC temp.tokens[1]);
} 


So.....

PHP Code:

function onCreated()
{
   // Tokenize string with # passed as the delimiter.
  temp.str = "Thanks#Alot#Fowlplay4!";
  temp.tokens = temp.str.tokenize("#");
  echo("tokens[0]" SPC temp.tokens[0]);
  echo("tokens[1]" SPC temp.tokens[1]);
  echo("tokens[2]" SPC temp.tokens[2]);
} 


This would make the weapon echo to the RC "Thanks Alot Fowlplay4"?
How could I apply this to playerchat?

PHP Code:

function onPlayerChats() {
    if(player.chat.starts("/color")) {
           temp.tokens = player.chat.tokenize();
           if(tokens[1] == "red") {
               //do something when player says "/color red"
           } else if(tokens[1] == "blue") {
               ////do something when player says "/color blue"
           }
    }
} 


I haven't scripted in like a year so, I hope I got that right x]

Basically, Yes.

player.chat is a string so you can use player.chat.tokenize() just as well. See Seich's example.

Thanks, I now understand
