Category:If conditions: Difference between revisions

If conditions evaluate the specified statement, and run code based on the returned value of the evaluation. If conditions are boolean (true or false), and may be strung together.

Example code:

ifdead { spawn BLOODPOOL killit } 

If conditions may be used in conjunction with an else.

In a cascade of multiple ifs followed by an else if, the latter is bound to the uppermost of the former ifs. Thus, the following code

redefinequote 114 NOPE
ifvare 0 1 ifvare 0 0 redefinequote 114 ONE
else ifvare 0 0 redefinequote 114 TWO

is equivalent to this explicitly-braced one:

redefinequote 114 NOPE
ifvare 0 1 { ifvare 0 0 redefinequote 114 ONE
}
else ifvare 0 0 redefinequote 114 TWO

and NOT this one, as with most procedural programming languages,

redefinequote 114 NOPE
ifvare 0 1 ifvare 0 0 { redefinequote 114 ONE
}
else ifvare 0 0 redefinequote 114 TWO

and quote 114 contains the string 'TWO' after its execution.
