Hello. I'm trying to figure out how to take a message from a listening channel and turn it into an integer, the way I'm trying to do it isn't working out. Here's what I have.
integer healthlisten;
default
{
state_entry()
{
llSetTimerEvent(1);
llListen(4859,"",llGetOwner(),"");
llSetAlpha(0.0, ALL_SIDES);
}
listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
{
(string)healthlisten == message;
}
timer()
{
llSetText((string)healthlisten, <1,0,0>, 1.0);
}
}
The only thing that shows up is a 0 and not what SHOULD be showing up, which is other object's "health". |

Try:
listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
{
healthlisten = (integer)message;
}

Do a llOwnerSay one the message that listen is receiving..
/me bets that it's not something that can be converted to an int.

I'd suggest using an llOwnerSay(message); prior to the healthlisten = (integer)message; to confirm that the value of message is as you expect.
Casting a string that contains no numbers to an integer will return 0.

Thanks for the help, it was a dumb mistake. I forgot the llListen(4859,"",llGetOwner(),""  ;. needed it to be NULL_KEY for now x.x |
