winset fail #2

Code:
mob
    Login()
        ..()
        winset(src,"oocname_stat","text = [oocname]")


Problem description: Alright so I actually got it to work now. Which is great. However it only half works. It allows for one word OOC names, but if the name is longer then 1 word it only shows the word and I get this error at run time

winset: Parameter oocname_stat.artemis not found.

Artemis is the second part of the word that doesn't show up.

Also another issue I seem to be having is that when I change the OOCname in game, it doesn't update on the skin unless I relog.

EDIT: I am using the lable oocname_state to displace the players ooc name on the skin.

Try text='[oocname]'

Okay that fixed one of the problems. Thank you. =] It now displays the whole name.

But it still doesn't update when the name is changed in-game without having to relog.

Because you're just defining it when you log in. If you want it to update, put that winset action into a proc and call the proc whenever you need the variable updated.

Could you explain how to do that?

mob

    proc

        update()
            winset()

    verb

        do_something()

            //do_stuff
            update()


Every time you do_something(), your winset() is updated. Of course you'd replace the do_something() command with whatever it is you're doing.

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. That worked perfectly. Thank you very much. =]
