String Tokeniser

[Jacob]

I have a string that goes in this format:

X1,Y1;X2,Y2

I also have a list with two options, which would be indexed 0 and 1.

With the String Tokeniser I am trying to gather coordinates based on the list's value, so if the first option in the list is selected, I want it to set the X position of an object to X1 and the Y position of an object to Y1.

My events are as follows:

• [color:#FF0000]Start of Frame[/color]
  [color:#006600]Edit Box[/color] : Set text "256,128;128,96"
  [color:#006600]String tokeniser[/color] : Split string Edittext$( "Edit Box" ) with delimiters "," and ";" (2D)
• [color:#FF0000]Always[/color]
  [color:#006600]Active[/color] : Set X position to Val(Element2D$( "String Tokeniser", 0, List Select( "List" )))
  [color:#006600]Active[/color] : Set Y position to Val(Element2D$( "String Tokeniser", 1, List Select( "List" )))

Now, In theory this should work. Except it doesn't. If the list is set to 0 then it does, but not if it is 1.

Nevermind, Eliyahu helped me fix it on GameBuilder</subtle advertising>

And for anyone interested, the solution was:

Switch the delimiters so ";" was X and "," was Y, then change the positioning accordingly.

Thanks for sharing the solution Eliyahu.
