Hi guys
About the code I've made up above...

HERE 1
how do i write local variables into text?
I've seen in the actual bot/player/etc lua codes, that a % seems to be placed infront of a variable name in a string if you want to replace it with an actual variable value.

HERE 2
Secondly, what happens in the case you need to send a Macro which relies on "random stuff" to be written within its function? I've tried double ' etc but to no avail

here1: sendMacro("PickupBagItem( "..test3..");");
here2: what random stuff? how random?

I phrased my question badly sorry =p

eg.
sendMacro("SendChatMessage("Not Found","SAY");");

I want to use the Function SendChatMessage, but the above will not work due to multiple " " " " ....
U get my meaning? xD

Code: Select all

sendMacro("SendChatMessage('Not Found');");

or 

sendMacro("SendChatMessage(\"Not Found\");");

or

local string = "what I want to say";
sendMacro("SendChatMessage("..string..");");
