Forums Scripts & Popups Concatenating Strings for Variables

I need to concatenate a string or two to a variable. The variable will should look like %money_$nick when it's done (where $nick is...well you know.) The script that I originally got the concatenation from was for mIRC 6.02, and it doesn't seem to work in mIRC 6.35 (* /if: invalid format ). The string goes like this:

%money_ [ $+ [ $nick ] ]

While that (without money_) worked great in that bot, it doesn't now.

What is the new format for doing this?

tl;dr How do I put $nick in a %variable?

instead of use or (when setting)
If you use the last method (which is my preferred method), to get the value, you have to double evaluate the variable, thus you would use or

6.02 is such an old version, that it sounds like your script was taking advantage of a bug, which has been fixed in the mean time.

There is no problem with the first format (once again, a simple test would've shown you this, eg //set -s %money_ [ $+ [ $me ] ] test | echo -a %money_ [ $+ [ $me ] ] )

Nicholas_OConnor: apparently the problem is not in the way you set/get the variable. We need to see the entire line from your script that causes the problem.

Obviously yes, since the error message clearly says it's an if-statement causing the problem.
