Solved Read line (variable) in file

[Hyao]

This is my code

set {_npc} to npc from entity loop-entity
set {_npcId} to id of npc {_npc}
set {_line} to ({_npcId} + 1)
set {_name} to line {_line} in file "/plugins/chi/npcName.txt"

When I debug it, npcId returns 0 - good.
line returns 1 - good.
name returns.. <none>. I've tried parsing line as an int/number, but it always parses as <none>. Better, even, when I just write {_name} to line 1(or anything, a number) it actually works. Anyone know why this is? Or how to fix it? Using the bensku skript fork and I guess the latest "umbaska"? If that's still a thing? The latest before it became WildSkript.

Hey

What do you want to store in that file?

In the text file, you could try this:

"Name"

You could give a shot this Skript line

 set {_name} to line "1" in file "/plugins/chi/npcName.txt"

Or you could use a .yml file instead

Well I'm storing text in a text file, aren't I? I just need to get the line I need. Also, " doesn't work for the line number as that makes it a string and not a number - which it won't accept.

EDIT:
Also Yaml is the same, won't make a difference as the only doc. is on umbaska, as well.
[doublepost=1501943292,1501942346][/doublepost]Found a workaround!

Solution for the people wondering:

set {_npc} to npc from entity loop-entity
set {_npcId} to id of npc {_npc}
set {_line} to ({_npcId} + 1)
set {_var::*} to file contents of "plugins/chi/npcName.txt"
set {_name} to {_var::%{_line}%}
