Dynamic Commands not working?
« on: October 05, 2017, 03:15:42 PM »
Has anyone else had issues with Dynamic commands only working for some combinations of requests?

I started a profile last year, been extremely busy in RL, so only started revisiting it in last few weeks and not sure if VA updates have broken them or if I am doing something wrong. Commands are for ED. the profile name is Molly and this is an example of the many commands that worked, but don't now

Code: [Select]
[Molly;]Retract Landing Gear;Landing Gear Up;Gear Up;Retract Gear[Molly;]
I was expecting responses from various combinations, like below
Molly Retract Landing Gear
Retract Landing Gear Molly
Gear Up Molly
Molly Landing Gear Up
etc.

But, some work and some are not recognised by VA. I am sure they all worked, prior to my hiatus
I have gone through the whole combination set testing and some work, some don't, where I would expect them to all work or not. Other commands have the same issue, with say Lights and Weapons working, but landing gear not, yet apart from the phrases, the code is identical.

Any ideas?

I popped this in to see what I would get.

Molly Retract Landing Gear - works
Retract Landing Gear Molly - does not work
Gear Up Molly - does not work
Molly Landing Gear Up - does not work

To make these work, you'll need this phrase:
[Molly;][Retract Landing Gear;Landing Gear Up;Gear Up;Retract Gear][Molly;]

-or-

[Molly;][Retract Landing Gear;Landing Gear Up;Gear Up;Retract Gear];[Retract Landing Gear;Landing Gear Up;Gear Up;Retract Gear][Molly;]

The second one will produce fewer commands behind the scenes (*I think*), even tho it's longer.  The first one, although shorter, will also produce recognizable commands such as, 'Molly Retract Landing Gear Molly'.



Just as a note, your phrase:
[Molly;]Retract Landing Gear;Landing Gear Up;Gear Up;Retract Gear[Molly;]

Produces
Molly Retract Landing Gear
Retract Landing Gear
Landing Gear Up
Gear Up
Retract Gear
Retract Gear Molly

Note the positions of the brackets and semicolons OUTSIDE of brackets.  Hope that helps without going fully into dynamic commands :)

Thanks Gary, will have a play in the morning and make the changes, second route looks the favourite :D

I will eventually get this full profile finished and release it here, it has full Ivona voiced responses and over 1300 commands/responses. Once working, I might get back into ED and include v2.4 changes, to expanded it further
