Create copies of code part with increasing numbers

Speedo · May 29, 2007#12007-05-29T23:42+00:00

I've never messed with macros in UE before, 'til this need... The documentation isn't giving me much of an idea on how to do this, but it can't be that difficult, surely.

Basically, I need to duplicate this piece of code 750 times, incrementing the numbered variable each time (aren't scripting languages without arrays wonderful?).

Code: Select all

elseif ( tltravvars.trav002 == 0 )
	set tltravvars.trav002 to newtrav

Thanks in advance.

First you go and get Mofis macro examples which you can download from the sticky in the macro section of the forum. We need Mofis excellent CountUp macro.

Then try this macro:

Code: Select all

InsertMode
ColumnModeOff
HexOff
UnixReOff
Clipboard 0
Loop 750
"elseif ( tltravvars.trav000 == 0 )
   set tltravvars.trav000 to newtrav
"
Key HOME
EndLoop
Top
Find "000"
Copy 
Top
Loop 
Find "000"
IfNotFound
ExitLoop
EndIf
PlayMacro 1 "CountUp"
Find "000"
IfNotFound
ExitLoop
EndIf
Paste 
EndLoop

I think for this simple job following macro is better because it is much faster.

InsertMode
ColumnModeOff
HexOff
NewFile
Clipboard 9
Loop 10
"elseif ( tltravvars.trav == 0 )#!# set tltravvars.trav to newtrav
"
EndLoop
SelectAll
Copy
EndSelect
Bottom
Loop 74
Paste
EndLoop
ClearClipboard
Clipboard 0
Key BACKSPACE
Top
Loop 24
Key RIGHT ARROW
EndLoop
ColumnModeOn
ColumnInsertNum 0 1 LeadingZero
Loop 35
Key RIGHT ARROW
EndLoop
ColumnInsertNum 0 1 LeadingZero
ColumnModeOff
Bottom
InsertLine
Top
Find "#!#"
Replace All "^p"
