Unvanquished Forum

Hi again. I have another problem with the client.

I have this code that I always used to change my joystick configuration (and please do not ask me about; "why would you use a fxxxxng joystick? " )

The code has always worked in previous versions of Unvanquished, but no longer works.

Specifically, i want to set the var "nextjoy" to "vstr joy2", but i can`t...instead nextjoy is set to "vstr"

this is the code:

set joy1 "exec configuracion/controles/joystick/eligejoy.cfg; set nextjoy vstr joy2"

I guess what you're thinking and no, this other code does not work

set joy1 "exec configuracion/controles/joystick/eligejoy.cfg; set nextjoy "vstr joy2""

Any idea???

I'm pretty sure that the following works

set joy1 "exec configuracion/controles/joystick/eligejoy.cfg; set nextjoy \"vstr joy2\""

Basically since the engine-upgrade merge /set takes only one "word" as the value to give to the cvar, where the word can be a quoted string. We are discussing it on IRC, I'll keep you posted.

EDIT:

So it seems we want to have "/set a foo bar" set a to "foo bar", I'll fix it soon. (however if you do /set a foo<space><space>bar it will do "foo<space>bar", to preserve the two spaces you'll need quotes)

Thank you guys!

You could also exec a .cfg to bypass the whole thing with quotation marks, which works, though it's ugly..what Viech said is a lot neater. But that's what I've been using with TF2, as you can't \" there. For what it's worth.

Should be fixed with c0a8d275d
