Hi,

I’m in a trouble with alot of duplicated puzzles in an indexed chain of actions that could be solved by linking a procedure launch to a variable state : let’s say :

If var state = x
do procedure x+1

Is there any way to handle this with puzzles?

Thanks a lot!

The procedure is named by number or contains number to be compared to variable value (don’t know if this is more understandable)

Hi,

you can trigger a procedure by its name using the exec script puzzle:

(see the usage example for the PROC variable)

Thanks Yuri,

But honestly this is chinese to me. Explanation in the wiki is quiet abstruse for somebody limited in coding science.

I took a snapshot of one my logic block.
I have (9) evolutive steps to be performed from (7) different actions menu. A button allows me to go to next or to previous step before launching action.
In this case, the “positive” button triggers state 6 when step variable is at 5.
The “negative” button triggers state 4 when step variable is at 5.

My life should be changed if i had a mean to say
“trigers (x-1) state when variable is at x” (backward) or
“triggers (X+1) state when variable is at x” (forward)
and create a procedure with it for my buttons back and forward.

Any idea how that could be done? So far,my puzzle board looks like having no ends.
