How to Check <P>? - mlyon83 - 06-20-2013 05:17 AM
elseif strmatch("<region.name>","Isabela")
if (<argn> == 45) || (<argn> == 52)
if !strmatch("<p>","3975,1087")
sysmessage @00 You can only cast Mark and Gate Travel on the town Altar for <REGION.NAME>.
return 1
endif
endif
endif
This doesn't seem to allow me to cast Mark at the position shown. Any idea what im doing wrong?

<p> should be "x,y,z,map", right?

I remember that i read somewhere ( forum,chat or bugtracker) that string that contains commas can actually gives problem when used as argument in a string matching function.
Like that Sphere consider the characters after the commas as a "new" argument.
So if i am correct your function compares <p> with just 3975.
I'll do a test in some minutes
Lol at the end it worked fine for me :\
I don't know then :\

Split the coordinates into <p.x>,<p.y> (evtentually also <p.z>)
if !((strmatch("<p.x>","3975") && (strmatch("<p.y>","1087"))
sysmessage @00 You can only cast Mark and Gate Travel on the town Altar for <REGION.NAME>.
return 1
endif
this should work as intented

why would you use strmatch to compare numbers?
if (<p.x> == 3975) && (<p.y> == 1087) would be a much better choice.
And as Alaric said... if using <p>, then you need to consider the Z and Map cordinate or else you will never get a match... unless you do
if !strmatch("3975,1087*","<p>")
The * in here will alows for any wildcard characters.
Also, if using STRMATCH, you should alway have your pattern as the first argument, not the second.
