getd/getarg() and arrays

[Stolao]

for([email protected] = 0; [email protected]<4; [email protected]++){
	set [email protected],rand(1,.L[3]);
	set [email protected][[email protected]],getd(".M" [email protected])[[email protected]];
}

 ok my question is in the "set [email protected][[email protected]]" part of the script, where should the "[[email protected]]" fall in this code should it fall within the getd() or after?

 

 

second question

getarg(0)[[email protected]]

 if getarg(0) is a menu name eg .H$, how would i pull out of the .H$ array via getarg

getarg(0)[.@s]

getelementofarray( getarg(0),<index> ) should work

for([email protected] = 0; [email protected]<4; [email protected]++){
	set [email protected],rand(1,.L[3]);
	set [email protected][[email protected]],getd(".M" [email protected]+"["[email protected]+"]");
}

always inside 

 

For the other one you can't use the whole array as an argument.

I think I heard somewhere that you can pass player array variables in functions but I never tried it

 

So you have two choices:

• Either you use a @var[] array and then use it in your function
• Or you pass the name of the array to your function so that it can get the variables using getvariableofnpc() and getd()

note that you'l have to give your array lenght to your function

 

for example :

-	script	YourNPCName	-1,{
callfunc "YourFuncName",".myarrayname",getarraysize(.myarrayname);
}

function	script	YourFuncName	{
	for ([email protected] = 0 ; [email protected] < getarg(1) ; [email protected]++)
		debugmes "val "+[email protected]+" : "+getvariableofnpc(getd(getarg(0)+"["[email protected]+"]"),"YourNPCName");
	return;
}

I don't quite understand your questions

for([email protected] = 0; [email protected]<4; [email protected]++){
    set [email protected],rand(1,.L[3]);
    set [email protected][[email protected]],getd(".M" [email protected]+"["[email protected]+"]");
}

for([email protected] = 0; [email protected]<4; [email protected]++){
    set [email protected],rand(1,.L[3]);
    set [email protected][[email protected]],getd(".M" [email protected]+"["[email protected]+"]");
}

 

let me add more detail then

setarray .M1,1,2,3;
setarray .M2,4,5,6;
setarray .M3,7,8,9;

for([email protected] = 0; [email protected]<4; [email protected]++){
	set [email protected],rand(1,.L[3]);
	set [email protected][[email protected]],getd(".M" [email protected])[[email protected]];
}

im trying to set [email protected] randomly from one of those 3 .M arrays, from a random point in one of those arrays

 

 

basically i want getd() to be from an array so how do i set the array index

[nanakiwurtz]

I don't know about your .L[3], and it looks like that Kurofly has answered your second question?

setarray .M1,1,2,3;
setarray .M2,4,5,6;
setarray .M3,7,8,9;

for ([email protected] = 0; [email protected]<4; [email protected]++) {
	set [email protected],rand(1,.L[3]);
	set [email protected][[email protected]],getd(".M"[email protected]+"["+rand(getarraysize(getd(".M"[email protected])))+"]";
}

second question

getarg(0)[.@s]

 if getarg(0) is a menu name eg .H$, how would i pull out of the .H$ array via getarg

getelementofarray( getarg(0),<index> ) should work

 

getd(getarg(0)+"["[email protected]+"]");

is what i ended up going with for the 2nd part,  thanks guys
