Event property = Nothing Glitch

[manwinc]

I think I read someone asking about this at one point, where Event property Doesn't return Anything because the client hasn't sent the information over. Actually there is A Really EASY way to check this


set %Nothing ; literally set it to nothing
event property #Findid
if #Property = %Nothing
{
uhh..... Loop or something
}

I thought #property = $ when there wasn't a property..

[manwinc]

Does it? I always just figured it = Nothing since there isn't another line for it to get the property for?

Ah, Yes it does = $ Just saw it in my script.

I just couldn't See it in my menu since $ in a menu equals a new Line. BOoyah!

Sometimes it'll do $, sometimes it'll do Leather Gorget$ but not show the remaining mods.  It's a major PITA.  I usually make my script use a sub to handle event property.  Do a STR COUNT on $, if it's less than 2, redo it.  I'm pretty sure all items in the game have more than one line in the property window except a select few.  Have the sub support the ability to take the minimum amount of lines to look for if needed so it'll be in the %1 or %2 value depending on how you set it up.

Code: [Select]

Gosub GetProperty #FindID 3

Sub GetProperty
;%1 = ID of item
;%2 = Minimum number of lines in item property
   str count %1 $
   while #strres < %2
      {
      wait 1
      str count %1 $
      }
return

Thank you for this little bit of info OMGBurger.  This is something i had been playing with some time ago and glad to see a solution to this.

You would think that You would have to do Event property again and again before easyuo would realize the Property changed.....
