Lua library: `Params`

The Params library is a small library introduced in 0.9.21. It provides a function to parse the parameter string ScriptParam and it is intended to simplify using this string.

This library requires the parameter string to be in a certain format. It must be a comma-seperated list of kev-value pairs in the key=value format. Examples:

speed=1 health=100, ammo=5 param1=hello, param2=whatever, param3=5325.4

Using this library is by no means neccessary, you could use practically whatever syntax you wish if you write your own code for parsing.

`parseParams()`

Parses ScriptParam and writes the result into the global table params . The table will follow the key=value pattern. Both keys and pairs are stored as string.

Example

function onParameters()
    parseParams()
    if params["myparam1"] == "hello" then
        WriteLnToConsole("Hello World!")
    end
end

If the key-value pair myparam1=hello is present, this script writes “Hello World!” in the console. All these inputs would trigger the event:

myparam1=hello myparam2=whatever, myparam1=hello g=4, f=56, m=56, myparam1=hello
