Weapon Focus (Ray) as Prereq?

TCArknight · February 20th, 2011, 01:50 PM

Ok, I'm having an issue with this statement as a prereq:

Code:

validif (hero.child[fWepFoc].field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[livename].text = 'Ray')

The feat is valid if the character has chosen Weapon Focus (ray).

I get an error with parsing the right side of the expression.

Thoughts?

You can't check strings that way.

Link to Intrinsics

use compare(str1, str2)

Wouldn't it just be easier to do the following:

Code:

validif (hero.tagis[WepFocus.wRay] <> 0)

Especially considering the Ray name could change to say Range Touch where the Thingid wRay won't change.

Thanks to both of you.

The intrinsics link helps and I think I'll go with the wRay tag...

Really appreciate the help!
