Wildcard references with {x1|x2}
|
Alright, so I have this trigger:
^Your hearing sharpens as your {left|right} ear regenerates.
$aff = %concat(severed, %1, ear)
#SAY $aff
#SAY %1
preRemoveAffliction $aff
When I put this into practice, %1 turns out to be a null value, and as such, $aff becomes "severedear". The only way I can get this to work correctly is by using (%w) instead of {left|right}. Is this a bug, or do I need to do this instead of specifically referencing left/right if I want to store the value? |

At ALL times, whenever you want to capture data into a %1...%99 sort of variable you need to use either the direct variable assignment operator (&varname) or surround the wildcard component with parentheses.
^Your hearing sharpens as your ({left|right}) ear regenerates. |
