using tagis with a string

[lifer4700]

I am in an Eval Script on a custom Archetype.

Within a "foreach pick" loop, I wish to "if (eachpick.tagis[...] <> 0) then"

If I hardcode the value inside the tagis brackets (e.g.: eachpick.tagis[IsWeapon.wLongbow] ), then everything works fine.

However, I don't have the luxury of hardcoding the target weapon type, I'm reading it from another pick.

So, I have a variable, declared as string that contains something like "IsWeapon.wLongbow".

If I put the variable inside the tagis brackets, I get an "Invalid styntax for tag template" error upon compile.


I found something called tagvaluestr, and tried all kinds of permutations with that, but I keep getting the same error.

Any guidance?

The foreach can search by a String value. So could you set a variable called "Search" with your tag instead and then your foreach would only pick up that weapon when it found it.

In example:

var sSearch as string
sSearch = "ArmorClass.Light"

foreach pick in hero from BaseArmor where sSearch
  ~ do stuff
nexteach

Otherwise it may work better to explain what you WANT to accomplish as their maybe a better/easier way.

You see? That's why we keep you around!

Thanks, ShadowChemosh, that worked.
