Minor edit to the 2 posts in this thread,

<RetVar> = get index of <Value> in array <Var/Array> offset = <Var/Number> + 1

As suggested here.

Hi ThaloonMook

Welcome to the MSCI team from me too. As you already did modify and enhance one of my mods too, I guess it's time to go for a drink when I'm in Augsburg once again.

[ThalonMook]

Hi All,

one question when I wana edit a thread (when I found a mistake or so) can I do this or must I ask a mod before?

@Saetan No question when you go to Augsburg send me a PM then we can meet us.

You have to ask a moderator in the Request for Moderator actions topic. You can either post the needed changes/mistakes you found and a moderator will change it or you can ask a moderator to open the current topic and post your changes there. In any case only moderators or the creator of a topic/post/article himself is able to edit that article.

The new postings in this forum have stopped anyway since some weeks.

But because of some bans in the German forum, even people I highly respect and who have given big benefit to the m&s community, just because the wanted to get an officiall apology for the kind a mod talked to them, I decide to leave this group.

Therefore my formatter went offline too.

Wow, this thread looks mighty dead.

Looking through the MSCI index, I found one command that Exscriptor refused. Is this purely for the internal editor, or should we take other editors into consideration?

The command in question is this one: write to logfile # <Var/Number> append = <Var/Number> value = <Value>

Exscriptor (1.2.39) omits the '#'.

I think we should always refer to the in-game Script Editor. That's the one everyone has and can use, if the game is installed.
