Quote: on *:TEXT:!roll:# { /dieroll $nick ;This command simply picks to random numbers and adds them, result as %dietotal /inc %pos $+ $nick %dietotal ;This bit seems to work fine, the variable, say, %possorrowless_joe will increase accordingly /msg $chan $nick is now on square $pos $+ $nick ;and here is the problem } for some reason it just returns "sorrowless_joe is now on square sorrowless_joe" even though the variable %possorrowless_joe is something else. i have tried so many different ways of adding square brackets, i've tried setting %pos $+ $nick to other variables and then using the last command but all to no avail. i'd be soo grateful for some help..

Yes, using []'s will work and I used to use that method myself. However, it is more of an improvised way of doing things than the correct way and may lead, in certain situations, to problems. Using $+() in the way shown will always be correct, so it's better to use that method. Invision Support #Invision on irc.irchighway.net
