Nope.I don't want to use a proc in my say verb.I want MY code fixed because its the shortest way I think off to code it.

You could add all the words into one list and check it against that


var/list/wordlist = list("Word1","Word2",Word3")

mob/verb/Say(T as text)
    if(wordlist.Find(T))
        msg = "****"
        world << "[usr]:  [T]"
    else
        world << "[usr]:  [T]"

I recommend you take a look at the code in my last Dream Tutor column for BYONDscape. Included in there is a very reasonable language filter that should fit your needs.

Nope.If you type a text after it(a word)it doesn't work.

Then you'd do something like this in the if()

if(findtext(T,wordlist.Find(T)))
    ...

??????????Whats wrong with this code?:

var/list/wordlist = list("Word1","Word2","Word3")

mob/verb/Say(T as text)
    if(findtext(T,wordlist.Find(T)))
    
        T = "****"
        world << "[usr]:  [T]"
    else
        world << "[usr]:  [T]"

Now,everything I say comes out as stars.

That's because you're replacing the entire string, instead of just the offending part of it. But also, you're using wordlist.Find() wrong. You need to loop through every word in the list, like this:
mob/verb/Say(T as text)
  for(var/cussword in wordlist)
    i=findtext(T,cussword)
    while(i)
      T=copytext(1,i)+"@#$%&!"+copytext(i+length(cussword))
      i=findtext(T,cussword,i+6)  // start after @#$%&!
  world << "[usr]:  [T]"

This works now, but it's a very very poor swear filter. For one thing, it won't recognize whole words, so you could end up with problems like this:

Goofball128: I don't mean to h@#$%&!le you, but could you p@#$%&! the salt?
Crackpot: You have to say the p@#$%&!word first.

Of course the F word is fine to recognize this way, because it doesn't occur naturally in other English words.

My recent Dream Tutor column has more on this subject, including working code for a good language filter.
