Skript: issue showing particles

Created on 11 May 2019 · 3Comments · Source: SkriptLang/Skript

Description

So I'm setting a variable to text for a user's set particle. Example, {particle::%player's uuid%} is "Smoke". When parsing this as a visual effect, it won't display at the targeted, or event-block unless done in an effect command.

Steps to Reproduce

The main part of the script

on break:
    if {particle::%player%} is set:
        show ({particle::%player's uuid%} parsed as visual effect) at event-block

I also tried replacing event-block with targeted block, no different.
However, when I run show ({particle::%player's uuid%} parsed as visual effect) at targeted block as an effect command, it runs fine and shows the particle.

Expected Behavior

Shows the particle at the event-block based on the user's particle variable.

your two variables are different.
is {particle::%player%} even set?
{particle::%player%} and {particle::%player's uuid%} are two VERY different variables.
Add a debug message to see if that is even set.

haha oops, I changed the variable without noticing. I'll check it out later on
