Loops

[phlops]

I recently started using the worldedit tool though I have been programming in PHP for the last few years and I was wondering if anyone knows of a substitution for a while() function or a more advanced for() function in worldedit. I need to be able to do this sort of action:

for ($a == 1; $b > 10)
{
loop actions
}

my only ideas were setting

For each (integer blah) from 1 to 99999 do
action

and then setting blah to a number greater than 99999 to end it.
Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.

Maybe if you told us what your actual problem is...

There is no problem, I will just need to use loops such as these in general; this is not an isolated matter.

Tell you a secret.

Click the trigger. Then click EDIT -> Convert to custom text.

There is an EXIT WHEN command in there, that standard gui doesn't show!

So then you can undo the convert, and add this action INSIDE THE LOOP


Custom Script (from action list): exit when condition

I will also warn you, integer A and integer B are GLOBAL variables (bummer, huh?) so if you have multiple loops running at the same time, they OVERWRITE eachother, and it really screws things up.

So if you use a lotta loops, use the (For each INTEGER) one, and use seperate globals.

My TD has MASSIVE loops, that loop 30x8 times each, so I have to use that everywhere.

Cheers that is exactley what I needed.
Though I must say this custom text style is much more easy to use than the regular type..
