[Lua] How does param work?

[Albanon]

I'm trying to make a talk action script that recognizes perameters, for instance

/test one should send the player a message that says one

/test two should send the player a message that says two

Here's what I have so far

function onSay(cid, words, param)
	if param == "" then
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,21, "please type a valid paremeter")

I don't know how to precede after this though, how do I make it recogize /test one and /test two?



Edit: Im using mystic spirit 2.10

function onSay(cid, words, param, channel)
if(param == '') then
	doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_BLUE, "Command param required.")
	return true
end
local t = string.explode(param, ",")
if t[1] == "one" then
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, "One")
elseif t[1] == "two" then
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE, "Two")
end
return true
end

I appreciate the help, but this doesn't work for some reason. Also, could you explain it a little?

 

[SpiderOT]

local t = string.explode(param, ",")

mean it will explode the parameters like /test first word,second word,third word
t[1] = first word, t[2] = second word,t[3] = third word etc
also check the script again i forgot to add return true

Thanks again for the response, however, it still doesn't work I'm typing /test one and nothing happens. What does return do anyway?

 

[SpiderOT]

it works here make sure you copy everything

it saves just fine now but it wont send the text message >.<

 

[SpiderOT]

hmm, do you get any error at consol?

 

[Albanon]

none at all which is odd, what server are you using? if I do /test it says no param just fine, but if i type /test one nothing happens, same for test two

 

[Albanon]

It also displays the text in the channel when I say it, so my character says /test one and /test. It doesn't look like that happened for you in your screenshot


Ah, sorry for the extra post, I meant to edit

 

[SpiderOT]

try to change

MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_ORANGE

with

MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR

 

[Albanon]

I tried but there's still no success I have no idea how it could work for you but not for me. im using 2.10 mystic spirit

 

[SpiderOT]

you probably say /test One not one

 

[Albanon]

I tried it every way I could think of, I know it's picky but it still doesn't work. I typed /test one
