Solved If world name contains ..

[crazydred]

Is it possible to write something like:

 if world name contains "pvp_":
     wait 1 tick
(...)

Hello crazydred,

Thank you for posting on the SkUnity forums!

I think I may hold the solution to your problems!
You could use

%entity's world%

. As in

%player's world%

. Or you could do

world of %entity%

! These both return the name of the world then I'm pretty sure you would then be able to do something like:

set {_var} to %thing's world%
if {_var} contains "worldname":

Feel free to reply if you are confused.

Best regards,

Blitz

or create a list with all worlds starting by "pvp_" and use that
[doublepost=1485817802,1485817604][/doublepost]What I am trying to achieve is to condense something like this:

if world name is "pvp_smugglerspath" or "pvp_hollow" or "pvp_ice" or "pvp_dust" or "pvp_whitevalley" or "pvp_arena1":
    on step on slime block:
        wait 1 tick
        do something

I'm afraid that is not how events work. You can't use a event which is

on step on slime block:

within a condition which is the code after the

if

. But I seem to be confused, what are you trying to accomplish here?

A simple launchpad that works only on worlds starting with "pvp_"

on step on slime block:
    wait 1 tick
    push player forwards with force 2
    wait 1 tick
    push player upwards with force 1

Ah! Now I see! So you could probably use something like this!

on step on slime block:
    set {_var} to event-player's world
    if {_var} contains "pvp_":
        wait a tick
        push player forwards with force 2
        wait a tick
        push player upwards with force 1

Does not work, I made this debug and I get:
pvp_whitevalley
not pvp

on step on slime block:
    set {_var} to event-player's world
    send "%{_var}%"
    if {_var} contains "pvp_":
        send "pvp"
        wait 1 tick
        push player forwards with force 2
        wait 1 tick
        push player upwards with force 1
        play "ITEM_FIRECHARGE_USE" to player at volume 0.5
        #show 10 "slime" particles at location of player for player offset by 0, 0, 1
        set {launched::%player%} to true
    else:
        send "not pvp"

        set {launched::%player%} to true
    else:
        send "not pvp"

That means that the name of the world is infact pvp_whitevalley, so change

contains "pvp_"

to

contains "pvp_whitevalley"

.

But I want it to work in all worlds that contain on its name "pvp_"
example: "pvp_trump" , "pvp_obama", etc xD

Well, you could use my addon? It's called Vixio here: https://forums.skunity.com/resources/vixio-1-0-8-the-best-discord-addon-on-the-market.19/ It's a Discord addon but it has `starts with` in it! So then you could use:

if {_var} starts with "pvp_"

SkUtilities may also have it?

It would be easier to use:

on step on slime block:
    set {_contains} to subtext of "%player's world%" from 1 to 4
    if {_contains} is "pvp_":
        # do stuff

...Or you could shorten that to:

on step on slime block:
    if subtext of "%player's world%" from 1 to 4 is "pvp_":
        # do stuff

on step on slime block:
    if "%subtext of ""%player's world%"" from 1 to 4%" is "pvp_":
        # do stuff

I might have messed up on the second example of the second code snippet, as I wasn't sure if two percent signs are required inside of an expression.

Hey! I didn't even know that was possible ;O. You really do learn something new everyday!

Thank you @mathhulk examples 1 and 2 work flawlessly
Thank you @Blitz

Final launchpad code:

on step on slime block:
    if subtext of "%player's world%" from 1 to 4 is "pvp_":
    #only launchs players in worlds which name starts with "pvp_"
        wait 1 tick
        push player forwards with force 2
        wait 1 tick
        push player upwards with force 1
        play "ITEM_FIRECHARGE_USE" to player at volume 1
        #show 10 "slime" particles at location of player for player offset by 0, 0, 1
        set {launched::%player%} to true
      
on damage:
    if damage cause is fall:
        if {launched::%victim%} is true:
            cancel event
            set {launched::%victim%} to false
on join:
    set {launched::%player%} to false
on death:
    set {launched::%player%} to false
on load:
    delete {launched::*}
