String Not Splitting

[FreezaF]

on chat:
    if player's name is "Kundaliel":
        if message is "Transmutate":
            loop all players:
                if loop-player's name is "Kundaliel":
                    set {_textO} to name of loop-player's offhand item
                    set {_textM} to name of loop-player's held item
                    
                    set {_o::*} to split {_textO} at " "
                    set {_m::*} to split {_textM} at " "
                    
                    set {_first} to {_o::1}
                    set {_last} to {_m::1}
                    
                    set {_item} to "%{_first}% %{_last}%"

Everything after
set {_textO} to name of loop-player's offhand item
set {_textM} to name of loop-player's held item
Is outputted as <none>

Did you give those items a custom name? Items don't have names by default

I didn't give them a name, but the variable is returning the default name of the item

Gold Ingot was returning "gold ingot"

 

[The Phill]

I thought you said it was it was returning <none>. What happens if you broadcast the lists?

 

[FreezaF]

I thought you said it was it was returning <none>

{_textO} & {_textM} are returing the item names, but everything else is returning <none>

from my testing {_textO} and {_textM} arent set if the name is not set. I was able to get it to work with this

on chat:
    if player's name is "phill310":
        if message is "do":
            loop all players:
                if loop-player's name is "Phill310":
                    set {_textO} to name of loop-player's offhand item ? type of loop-player's offhand tool
                    set {_textM} to name of loop-player's held item ? type of loop-player's held item

                    broadcast "O: %{_textO}%"
                    broadcast "M: %{_textM}%"

                    set {_o::*} to split "%{_textO}%" at " "
                    set {_m::*} to split "%{_textM}%" at " "

                    broadcast {_o::*}
                    broadcast {_m::*}

                    set {_first} to {_o::1}
                    set {_last} to {_m::1}

                    set {_item} to "%{_first}% %{_last}%"

                    broadcast {_item}

                    set {_textM} to name of loop-player's held item ? type of loop-player's held item

                    broadcast "O: %{_textO}%"
                    broadcast "M: %{_textM}%"

                    set {_o::*} to split "%{_textO}%" at " "
                    set {_m::*} to split "%{_textM}%" at " "

                    broadcast {_o::*}
                    broadcast {_m::*}

                    set {_first} to {_o::1}
                    set {_last} to {_m::1}

                    set {_item} to "%{_first}% %{_last}%"

                    broadcast {_item}

this works great, however could you explain what this means?

? type

 

[The Phill]

it basically say that if the variable is still not set after the expression before the ?, skript should try to set it to the expression after
its basically the same as

set {_e} to name of player's tool
if {_e} is not set:
    set {_e} to type of player's tool
