Help with a string comparison issue

[YorrickVander]

Hey all,

I've hit on an issue, which isn't crucial to the mod, but would be nice to solve all the same.

Code: Select all

<do_if value="$lBuys.{$i}.ware.tags.{$j} == 'economy'">
   <show_help custom="'rawr'" /> 
</do_if>

Now with a normal string comparison this works fine. In this case the string returned from the indexed .tag list fails the comparison with the printed result of that tag.

if i print the .tag attribute i see for example [tag.economy,tag.liquid] result. If I print tag.{1} i see economy as expected. when i if tag.{1} == 'economy' it comes out false which is not expected

Any ideas as to what's happening here?

there are no strings in that list but tags use tag.economy without ' '

or better try this:

Code: Select all

<do_if value="$lBuys.{$i}.ware.tags.indexof.{tag.economy} > 0">
   <show_help custom="'rawr'" />
</do_if>

simpler solution than testing each entry of the list by itself (it returns the index no. of tag.economy in the list; it may be possible to omit the '> 0' but not sure)

Hah! nice one, most appreciated

EDIT : working perfectly, and yes can omit the > 0 -hug-
