left until dragon

[snareman]

Okay, in achaea I am making something where it tracks my progress to level 99. I am taking a variable and trying to change it whenever my xp changes. I use SVO's custom prompt and I'm trying to place it in there.

leftToDragon = 9900 - ((tonumber(gmcp.Char.Status.level:match("^(%d+)")) * 100) + tonumber(gmcp.Char.Status.xp:match("^(%d+)")))

is how I define my variable with the event handler added gmcp.Char.Status.xp

I use the function svo.adddefinition("@l2d","leftToDragon") to put it in my prompt

the output is it just puts leftToDragon in my prompt at the value gmcp.Char.Status.xp was when I activated it and stays there, and the only time it updates correctly is when I deactivate and reactivate the script leftToDragon is contained in.

I also hope to change it to where the number in my prompt is read as a decimal as it is defined in gmcp.Char.Status.xp but without the % symbol.

Any help would be awesome. Thank you in advance, I will provided more information if needed.

Am I lacking something in order to get help with this or..?

This link to Vadi's svo documentation will probably help you with that.
