Hi Guys,
I have a function that takes vectors from a notecard and places them in vector variables in my main script. If I put 10 vectors into the notecard I can then read them into 10 vector varibles (which I have declared). Simple enough so far.
However, I just cannot get my head around about how to read in vector variables if the number of variables in the notecard is indeterminate. For example, if a sim is divided into 9 parcels, or 10 or 12 or whatever, and I wish to pass the vectors of each parcel to my script via a notecard.
I guess I need to read the number of lines in the notecard = number of variables, then somehow (this is the bit I need help on) generate the same number of variables in my script, then read each line of the notecard into each of those variables.
Any ideas on how I can go about this?

Couldn't you just put them in a list? You can't create variables at runtime, which I think is what you're asking.

something like...

list vgListVectors;
integer vgIntCurrentLine;
default{
state_entry(){
llGetNotecardLine( "config", vgIntCurrentLine );
}
dataserver( key vKeyNull, string vStrData ){
if (EOF == vStrData){ //-- quit reading the notecard when we reach the end
state vsMain;
}else{
vgListVectors = (vgListVectors = []) + vgListVectors + (vector)vStrData;
llGetNotecardLine( "config", ++vgIntCurrentLine );
}
}
}
state vsMain{
//-- your code here
}

Many thanks Void, a couple of tweaks and that worked perfectly.
