(support) npcHandler:say -- variable

[Black Reaper]

Below isn't working, so I'm just curious how do I allow them to retrieve text from a variable?

city_name = "CITY"
npcHandler:say("I'm the official banker of".. city_name .."!", cid)

 

[Serginov]

local city_name = "CITY"
npcHandler:say("I'm the official banker of " .. city_name .. "!", cid)

Same difference, syntax is fine.

There's no reason why it shouldn't work.

try like;

npcHandler:say("I'm the official banker of " .. string.format(city_name) .. ".", cid)

it should work the way you did it anyway

 

[Cykotitan]

try like;

npcHandler:say("I\'m the official banker of " .. string.format(city_name) .. ".", cid)

it should work the way you did it anyway
