Forums Scripts & Popups $addtok problem

I am trying to add $address($nick,2) to a variable ($nick) everytime someone uses !vop $2

what I have here:



the $($+(%,$2),2) part is the variable in let's say !vop Tekano the $($+(%,$2),2) line is Tekano

the set $($+(%,$2),2) $address($nick,2) part works, but here is my problem:

this part:

doesn't work.

if I change that line to


this does work, but I need the first one to work.

The problem is rather simple
$2 is hah

set $($+(%,$2),1) $addtok($($+(%,$2),1),$address($nick,2),32)
means set %hah $addtok(%hah, *!*@Eggs-49732F81.nott.cable.ntl.com,32)
though this does look right by the time mIRC evaluated to this %hah is the literal "%hah" and not a variable.

set $($+(%,$2),1) $addtok($($+(%,$2),2),$address($nick,2),32)

Should fix it

thanks a lot

is there a list or something where I can find all those standard names etc.?

What exactly do you mean by standard names ?

like the $2 is %hah etc.

or why the 2 should be a 1 in this situation.

$2 is not %hah per se it was merely an example :P

$() is short for $eval() which allows you to evaluate something 1 or more times

a standard line in the remote is evaluated once with the exeption of a couple of commands that evaluate twice (timer scon and scid)

sometimes however you want something to evaluate more then once the most common situation being dynamic variables.

$+(%,$2) builts a dynamic variable based on whatever $2 holds for example $2 = hah

mirc will evaluate this to %hah however we want the contents of %hah so we need to tell mIRC to evaluate one more time we can do this by using $eval().

$eval($+(%,$2),2)
since 1 is the standard evaluation depth we need to use 2

ah, that makes a lot more sense

thanks
