Changing dice roller script to emote. by pqee on 07-14-2006 at 04:50 PM
I'm trying to change the dice roller script by Rctll to be an emote instead of just a chat message.
Editing the script I'd think I could just change the line:
code:to
return ('I get a ' + r + ' with a ' + base + ' sided dice.');
code:
return ('/me got a ' + r + ' with a ' + base + ' sided dice.');
This works when I have no arguments but once I specify a number (eg. /roll 100) the emote goes through without my name like this:
> got a 80 with a 100 sided dice.
Any ideas?

if i typed /me slaps you with a fish
it would send (in purple i think)

In Windows Live Messenger, you can type multiple messages, without your name coming up every time (know what I mean?), well.. the screenshot explains itself:
This happens unless you go to Tools > Options > Messages > tick 'Show contact says: before every message'

Thanks for the responses. The end result was a user problem. 
Chris4 what you said was correct and that was screwing me up. Seeing 'Pqee rolls a die' made me think all of them would show up that way. On the receiving end it was always showing up as both of you mentioned: '> rolls a die.'
Thanks for clarifying it.
