Solved %player% variables question

[KrswtkhrSK]

I'm making a script to return the contents of yaml

command /yml:
    trigger:
        send "%YML(""stats.%%player%%"", ""joinedDate"", -1)%"

Invalid brackets/variables/text in 'stats'
(api\0_yaml.sk, line 25: send "%YML(""stats.%%player%%"", ""joinedDate"", -1)%"')

What should I put in place of %%player%%?

(If you enter a specific player name in %%player%%, it work without problems...)

Try using

command /yml:
    trigger:
        send "%YML(""stats.%player%"", ""joinedDate"", -1)%"

I get the same error

skript uses latest bensku's fork (dev 36). Is this a bug?

I'm sure it's a bug on some level but things get really messy when you nest things so deep. You have an expression inside of a string inside of a function call being parsed as a value within a string. Why not just split it onto two lines instead of making something so confusing for the parser? It'd probably look nicer too:

set {_yml} to YML("stats.%player%", "joinedDate", -1)
send "%{_yml}%"

There, no need for some nutty looking expression just for the sake of doing it in one line.

Thanks dude!
When I encounter a bug in the future, I will think about expressing it in another way.
