Strings

[krog99]

I wanna make a zoom-trigger, which allows the player to zoom for a distance of choice.

For example if they wanna zoom out to 2400 they will type -zoom 2400 or -zoom 2050.

The hard part, i think, is splitting the string into two, and make first half standard. And then save second half in an integer Variable? Am i right?

• YourTrigger
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -Zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -Zoom as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set IntegerVariable = (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 10))))
    • Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Height Offset to (Real(IntegerVariable)) over 0.00 seconds

Something like this? And just in case the first action is
Set Variable -> Convert String to Integer -> Substring

Hope this helps

• Set IntegerVariable = (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 10))))

Thx, works fine, but why (7, 10) what is this part doing?

"-zoom " has 6 characters in it <---
01) -
02) z
03) o
04) o
05) m
06) <space>

So, it takes the numbers from the 7th character till the 10th and converts it from a string to an integer.
Then, it zooms the camera to the integer. =)

Ah okay

Seems obvious now, thx
