I’m trying to use night bot to create a list of users within itself so i can call upon those names for other logic, I think I should be able to do it all with one command.
The way i was thinking of is something like !kiss $(eval var query1 = $(1); var query2= $(2); array friends = []; bool friend = 0; if query1 == “add” then friends.append(query2); else (while i < friends.length, i = 0, do; if query1 == friends(i) then “the biggest kisses”; friend = 1; else i += 1;) if friend = 0 then “mwah”
i don’t suppose there would be a dynamic way to keep a list like that within a command is there, so would i need to hardcode the usernames in there? if any of the logic isn’t clear i can explain it but it should be pretty straight forward, idk about the syntax of everything because i haven’t really used this language before
Yeah, JavaScript doesn’t work this way, it’s much more flexible than many other languages, which present advantages, but also can introduce errors, haha! And for Nightbot we simplify things quite a lot to save space.
There’s indeed no way for Nightbot to “remember” the list from one command call to another: once the response is sent, everything is purged, so you’ll have to hardcode some usernames.
I tried translating your code into JS, but it doesn’t make much sense, I don’t think it’d work as you expect it, the easiest solution would be to describe what you want.
okay, so basically what im trying to do with the code is have this command, !kiss, give one response for a standard user, but if their username falls within a list of usernames i’d set, then it would give a different response. I’ve done this before with just a singular user, but I’ve never tried to have a list or do a multiple compare with JS, so any syntax I try to come up with is going to be wrong.
So i guess the real issue that I’m having right now since you clarified that theres no way for Nightbot to remember code changes from one query to the next, is 1) How to create the list of (User1, User2,…), and then how to properly compare $(user) to said list.
