Forums Scripts & Popups on load

If i have these simple script lines:

on *:LOAD: {
set %CBackground 1
set %CFText 0
set %OpText 8
set %VoiceText 4
set %CTBackground 15
set %CBText 5
set %CFSubC 3
set %CFSub 11
}

I get this as result in my variable section:
%CBackground
%CFText
%OpText
%VoiceText
%CTBackground
%CBText
%CFSubC
%CFSub

Could it be a bug that it can't remember my numbers there??

I'm using mIRC 6.1, tested all different ways of setting a var directly in the on load event, none worked for me...

even tried things like....

on *:LOAD:{ //echo -s setting veriable | //aliasset %cbackground 1 }
alias aliasset { //set $1 $2- }

It would not even run an echo command, seems like a bug in the on load event to me

Well I tried all of those and they all worked fine in v6.1, with the following exception

on *:LOAD:{ //echo -s setting veriable | //aliasset %cbackground 1 }
needs to be
on *:LOAD:{ echo -s setting veriable | aliasset % $+ cbackground 1 }
to pass "%cbackground" on to the alias as a string instead of first evaluating it.

Had the same problem for a long time until I realized that immediately after the on LOAD (or on START in my case) an alias was called that cleaned out the list again. You sure you don't have some unset's somewhere?

Yeah, that was a syntax error on my behalf hehe, was busy with other stuff at time of test/post : )

To original poster, try moving the script down to the bottom of the script order (mIRC Editor, File, Order...) and have the on load in its own script file. This should initiate it right at the end after everything else. Letting you determine if or not there is an issue with another of the loaded scripts unsetting variabals.

Thanks guys... I'm working around on it now but I do want to add that my script worked 'perfectly' in mIRC 603 but now that I've the new one it doesn't work anymore
