"Bad types for binary operator"?

[Mr Zero]

What does "Bad types for binary operator" means?

 

[Sim]

When did you get that error message?

 

[Mr Zero]

Does that matter? I meant more what it means.

But the code I get error on:

if StringCase(SubString(GetEventPlayerChatString(), ( StringLength(VK_V(-2)) + 2 ), StringLength(GetEventPlayerChatString()))-1, false) == StringCase(GetPlayerName(Player(i)), false) then

Binary operators are something (to my knowledge) unavailable in Jass so that error is ridiculous at best.
Can you post the whole code?

To me it looks like he is making a save/load code.
If you have JASSCraft though, sometimes the line it says the error is on is wrong (like if it says line 65 I always check 64 since it's off =/).
As Daxtreme said though, whole code please.

Sure. This is a upcoming system of mine. It is called VoteKick. Instead of a Admin, a special name or player red only can kick, this system should help everyone. This system is not even 25% done, though it only needs the count system. I have not optimized it yet so it is probably a messy for anyone who don't know JASS. Anyway I have comment the variables of the lines please ask if you don't know what the line does.

To test it type -votekick into the chat or change everything inside of ""

return "-votekick"

to whatever you want.

Edit: Source code removed

You messed up with the parentheses. I changed it to this, and it works fine:

        if StringCase(SubString(GetEventPlayerChatString(),StringLength(VK_V(-2))+2,StringLength(GetEventPlayerChatString())-1), false) == StringCase(GetPlayerName(Player(i)), false) or StringCase(SubString(GetEventPlayerChatString(),StringLength(VK_V(-2))+2 ,StringLength(GetEventPlayerChatString())-1), false) == StringCase(VK_V(i), false) or StringCase(SubString(GetEventPlayerChatString(),StringLength(VK_V(-2))+2, StringLength(GetEventPlayerChatString())-1), false) == StringCase(I2S(GetPlayerId(Player(i))), false) then

 

[Mr Zero]

Thanks Tom. That worked.

Yup, one brace before the "-1". There's a nice program that has this function - match brace - very useful for this.

Ultra Edit is the name...
