Variable for block name..

[Honorabl3]

Does anyone know the variable for block name?
Please also note that I am talking about all the blocks on the server with the name target.. (when you wrench the block and set a name..)

Example:

Code: [Select]

if(%brick.name("target"))
{
     blah();
}

[Ad Bot]

[Aide33]

Code: [Select]

if(%brick.getShapeName() $= "target")
{
    blah();
}This I think

[Blocki]

if(getsubstr(%n=%brick.getname(),1,strlen(%n)-1) $= BlahBrickName)

[Honorabl3]

if(getsubstr(%n=%brick.getname(),1,strlen(%n)-1) $= BlahBrickName)

That worked, now how do I get all the bricks and then run it through the if(getsubstr(%n=%brick.getname(),1,strlen(%n)-1) $= BlahBrickName) function? To get the amount of bricks on a server with the name "target"?

[elm]

if(getsubstr(%n=%brick.getname(),1,strlen(%n)-1) $= BlahBrickName)

If the brick doesn't have a name, this'll throw errors.

[Blocki]

If the brick doesn't have a name, this'll throw errors.

I know, I expect the brick to have a name when he wants to get it?

Alternatively, you can shorten the crap
if(%brick.getname() $= "_target")

[Trinick]

if(getSubStr(%n=%brick.getName(),1,(strLen(%n)||1)-1) $= %brickname)

or

if(%brick.getName() $= "_" @ %brickname)

[Blocki]

(strLen(%n)|1)
what

[Trinick]

strLen(%n) or 1

if strLen(%n) is 0, it'll use 1, otherwise it'll use the value strLen gives.

(strLen(%n)|1)
what

| is a bitwise operator

[Trinick]

Oop, ^ is right. I meant to use ||. Didn't even see that.

Is anyone going to respond to my second question? How do I search every block in the server, and check if it's name is "target"?

loop

[sh0ckthealien]

Code: [Select]

%groupCount = MainBrickGroup.getCount();

for(%i = 0; %i < %groupCount; %i++)
{
   %brick = MainBrickGroup.getObject(%i);
   if(%brick.getName() $= "_target")
   {
      //do stuff
   }
}
