Coding Help - Find a Particular Word in game title
« on: November 13, 2020, 09:48:46 AM »
I have some idea and don't know the real code. Please give me help if you known. Thanks.

- Check out the game title like as "Alien3: The Gun (World)"
- Checking word = "(World)"
- if word found, do something

Code: [Select]
function checkworldinname(){
    local gamename = fe.game_info (Info.Title)
    return (gamename.find ("(World)") != null)
}

should do the trick, the function gets the title of the current name and look in the string for the substring "(World)", if the result is not null then the substring is there
