Removing # from mob names

[blamstick]

Wondering if someone can tell me how to remove the # from in front of the named mobs names because I want to do this kind of command -

/g $target(name,clean) is at $target(hp,pct) Health

If it's a named mob it would show up like '#Dread Skeleton is at 50% Health'

Wanted to check if the first character is a # and remove it if it is. I'm just not as saavy with coding as some of you are. thanks.

Heh, what's with all the self flagellation these days?

Skeleton junk, this is a quicky pulled from one of my scripts that should work... overly fancy but cut and paste /shrug.

Code: Select all

/if $left(1,"$target(name,clean)"=="#" {
   /g $right($calc($strlen("$target(name,clean)")-1),"$target(name,clean)") is at $target(hp,pct) Health
} else {
   /g $target(name,clean) is at $target(hp,pct) Health
}

It works great thanks much. Only found one error which I corrected here -
the if statement needed to include a closing parenthesis for the $left statement.

Code: Select all

Sub Main
/if $left(1,"$target(name,clean)")=="#" {
/echo $right($calc($strlen("$target(name,clean)")-1),"$target(name,clean)") is at $target(hp,pct) Health 
}
/return

Heh right you are... and here I was about to ask if Bad Karma tested it prior to tossing it up on the snippets forum :)

Thanks,

I'm still trying to get caught up on the month's worth of backlogged posts I've missed!

I'll go edit it now.

How many brain surgeons does it take to change a light bulb?


Did you try

Code: Select all

/g %T is at $target(hp,pct) health

?
