I seem to be stuck, Im trying to update a variable inside a function..but it only ever returns the blank var I set at the top of the script. Even when logging it RIGHT after the function. I had a similar problem before, and seemed to get it solved by declaring as a var foo = ' ' ; at the top of the script, and then later just doing f oo = foo + whatever ...but now its not. doing a log(tLOOT); always returns a " ", any ideas? To help give an idea what Im trying to do. Im trying to make a variable that equals all the loot they find, and instead of sending EACH loot as a chat message itself, causing a lot of "(From soandso)" for each chat..save it all as tLOOT = tLOOT + (Something) into one long var THEN send it. My variable is var tLOOT = '' ; and for example inside a: sendChat('', "/roll 1t[MiscItems]", function (ops) { I have: tLOOT = tLOOT + fPart + "background-color:#A8A142;'>ITEM: " + lootE + ""; which I assume should take tLOOT as nothing add that to it, and repeat for the loop. Only if I log it inside the function itself..then its right, outside it its not it never returns anything other than tLOOT = ' '; if its done inside a function. the only one that works is the money one, since it doesnt use a function (ops) function myrolls(loota) {
for(var i = 0; i < loota.length; i++) {
var ii = (loota[i].indexOf("[[") != -1);
if(ii == true) {
var num = loota[i].replace(/[^0-9]/g, '');
var res1 = num.substr(0, 1);
var res2 = num.substr(1, 4);
var i = 1;
var tot = 0;
while(i <= res1) {
var tot = tot + randomInteger(res2);
i++
}
return tot;
}
}
}
