hey people,

how can i make a script send a word picked randomly from a list when moo! is sent?

thanks for any help

ok here you go

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd,Origin,Message)
{
  if(Message=='moo!')
  {
    g = new Array('word','something','stuff','goes','here'); //the words you want
    ran = g[Math.floor(Math.random()*g.length)]; //getting a random word
    ChatWnd.SendMessage(ran); //sending the word
  }
}

It really depends on how you want the script to work. Here are three scripts.

Let's say you want it to send a random word when you send a message saying "moo!" (and only "moo!").

code:

---

var RandomWordList = new Array("box", "ship", "letter");

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message) {
   if(Message == "moo!") {
      return RandomWordList[Math.floor(Math.random() * RandomWordList.length)];
   }
}

---

code:

---

var RandomWordList = new Array("box", "ship", "letter");

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message) {
   return Message.replace(/moo!/g, RandomWordList[Math.floor(Math.random() * RandomWordList.length)]);
}

---

code:

---

var RandomWordList = new Array("box", "ship", "letter");

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message) {
   while(Message.match(/moo!/) != null) {
      return Message.replace(/moo!/, RandomWordList[Math.floor(Math.random() * RandomWordList.length)]);
   }
}

thank you erm... the person who posted second... jay_jay, yours worked but for some reason not integrated with my script. so basically, thanks to everyone that helped
