Solved (kinda solved) How to cut arg1

[Pykaxe]

command /lol [<text>]:
    trigger:
        set {_test} to length of "%arg-1%"
        if {_test} is less than 16:
            broadcast "&aYes! arg 1 is bigger than 16"
            broadcast "%arg-1%"
        else:
            broadcast "&cNo! arg1 is less than 16 "
             broadcast "%arg-1%"

How can I make my script "cut" arg-1, so instead of broadcasting this:

Hello there i am Pykaxe And this is a bad script.

It would broadcast this (so in two lines):

Hello there i am Pykaxe
And this is a bad script.

i may be wayyyy overthinking this but i got it working with this:

command /test [<text>]:
    trigger:
        set {_message} to arg-1
        set {_split_message::*} to {_message} split at " "
        set {_num_of_words} to size of {_split_message::*}
        set {_message_line1} to ""
        set {_message_line2} to ""
        set {_num} to 1
        loop {_num_of_words} times:
            if {_num} is less than ceiling({_num_of_words}/2):
                set {_message_line1} to "%{_message_line1}%%{_split_message::%{_num}%}% "
            else:
                set {_message_line2} to "%{_message_line2}%%{_split_message::%{_num}%}% "
            add 1 to {_num}
        broadcast "%{_message_line1}%"
        broadcast "%{_message_line2}%"

@Donut thanks, do you know how to make it 3 lines, if its even more text

 

[ShaneBee]

Do the same thing but divide num of words by 3 instead of 2 then add the necessary code

If that doesn't make sense I can help more tomorrow

 

[ShaneBee]

Yeah I'll wait until tommorow, not really good at Skript.

Btw thank you so much

this will split it into 3 lines. like i said before, there may be a simpler way to do this but this is all i could think of

command /test [<text>]:
    trigger:
        set {_message} to arg-1
        set {_split_message::*} to {_message} split at " "
        set {_num_of_words} to size of {_split_message::*}
        set {_message_line1} to ""
        set {_message_line2} to ""
        set {_message_line3} to ""
        set {_num} to 1
        loop {_num_of_words} times:
            if {_num} is less than ceiling({_num_of_words}/3):
                set {_message_line1} to "%{_message_line1}%%{_split_message::%{_num}%}% "
            else:
                if {_num} is less than ceiling({_num_of_words}*(2/3)):
                    set {_message_line2} to "%{_message_line2}%%{_split_message::%{_num}%}% "
                else:
                    set {_message_line3} to "%{_message_line3}%%{_split_message::%{_num}%}% "
            add 1 to {_num}
        broadcast "%{_message_line1}%"
        broadcast "%{_message_line2}%"
        broadcast "%{_message_line3}%"

            add 1 to {_num}
        broadcast "%{_message_line1}%"
        broadcast "%{_message_line2}%"

what the fuck?

broadcast first element out of split arg-1 at "And this" and "And this %last element out of split arg-1 at ""And this""%"

lol i guess im better at over-complicating things than i thought...
[doublepost=1501209302,1501209201][/doublepost]actually what you posted doesnt work unless im using it wrong

 

[ShaneBee]

@Donut is right. your script will not work

I just missed ()

broadcast (first element out of split arg-1 at "And this") and "And this %last element out of split arg-1 at ""And this""%"
