Forums Scripts & Popups How can I get a variable value in a specific way?

ON +100:text:start gather:?: {
  msg $nick Please Enter a map:

  msg $nick The gather has started
  set %alpha. 0
  set %bravo. 0
  .enable #gather 
  msg #Chan A Gather Has Started. Map: %map . Admin: $nick . Say !addme to play in the gather

ON +100:text:*:?: {
[color:green];This checks to see if start gather is in the message.
; If it is, then its sends a message[/color]
  if ($1 == start) && ($2 == gather) {
   msg $nick Please Enter a map:
   inc %started
   return
 }
[color:green]; This part check to see if "start gather" was sent before, and if it has, then sets the var %map to the text the nick sends.[/color]
 if (%started) {
  set %map $1-
  unset %started
 }
}

ON +100:text:*:?:{
  var %action = $hget(gather,$fulladdress)
  if ($1- == start gather) { msg $nick Please Enter a map: | gatherset map | return }
  if (%action == map) { check for map name | return }
  if (%action == whatever else) { commands/actions | return }
}
alias gatherset { hadd -m gather $fulladdress $1- }
