Hey guys! I'd like to do some basic string handling in my .gsc, something like getting the length of a string or cutting it into pieces and stuff like that... Anybody knows how to do it? Or isn't there implemented something like that?

I dont know what you mean about getting the length of a string, but WaW's script language has several built-in string funtions, including getting a sub string: GetSubStr( , , ) Returns the substring of characters >= and < . is optional. IsSubStr( , ) Returns true/false if is a substring of . Case sensitive. StrTok( , ) Tokenizes by the delimiters . Returns the array of string tokens. ToLower( ) Converts to a lower case string which is returned. Going back to the question of getting the length of a string, I suppose that if once the string is tokenized, you could get each token and calculate a strings length based on the number of tokens: Code: getMax( a, b, c, d ) { if( a > b ) ab = a; else ab = b; if( c > d ) cd = c; else cd = d; if( ab > cd ) m = ab; else m = cd; return m; } edited on May. 27, 2009 03:56 pm by DemonSeed

I'm pretty sure you just use string.size as it's handled the same way an array is. yep just tested edited on May. 27, 2009 04:07 pm by NovemberDobby
