I am using the Quests Plugin and the PAPI Placeholder. I want to add the name of the quest at just one spot and then the name of the %TempVariable% everywhere else like here.

- '%TempVariable%quest1=Die erste Prufung'
- '%TempVariable%test1=%quests_player_can_accept_quest_quest1%'

- '$text$test1' #is not working, returns false, because it recognizes %quests_player_can_accept_quest_quest1%

- '$text$%quests_player_can_accept_quest_quest1%' #works, returns true, recognizes %quests_player_can_accept_quest_Die erste Prufung%

 I've added a way to specifically make this possible to work. just use [Replace] as a prefix of the second variable, example :

- '%TempVariable%$pname=$player'
- '%TempVariable%$test4=[Replace]%player_ping_$pname%'
- '$text$ 4 = $test4 '

 If you want test it : Link Removed: https://www.mediafire.com/file/vv6ki5l2lg4w4u5/MyCommand_5.7.2_dev13_05_21.zip/file

Didn't know, I will try, if I need, because it works somehow without it now. I even use it with a PAPI Placeholder and an $arg in a recursive function:

- '%TempVariable%quest1=Die erste Prufung'

- '%TempVariable%toCheckFirst=%quests_player_meets_requirements_to_start_quest$arg3%'

Edit:

I tried the [Replace] and it doesn't work at all. It just makes it worse, because it is not getting translatet in your 3 lines of code (I tried your example).

I try to use this code:

- '%TempVariable%$questName=Die erste Prufung'

- '%TempVariable%toCheckThird=[Replace]$questName'

- '$text$toCheckThird'

It prints: [Replace]questName

Are you using the version of the plugin posted here? Because it's stuff i've added today.

On the 5.7.1 it's impossible that work this line '%TempVariable%test1=%quests_player_can_accept_quest_quest1%' Because the replace process was done before. PAPI pass there and find anything, or replace his placeholder with whatever is written into it. But not, the content of the tempvar. %.._quest1% pass as %..._quest1% and not as %..._CONTENT%, idk if you have understand.

In the 5.7.2dev posted above doing [Replace] as my example, you can replace first "quest1" with the tempvar, and then all the remaining stuff.

 Omg, big thanks. I didn't get that you posted a new Version there for download. Now it works fine and it saved me code of 2 days, because it worked just for the first one somehow and just in that case there. But the other commands from PAPI that I use are working without the [Replace] somehow.

This works for me on the new Dev Version or actually the $text$ output is right:

- '%TempVariable%toCheckFirst=%quests_player_meets_requirements_to_start_quest$arg3%'
- '%TempVariable%toCheckSecond=%quests_player_has_completed_quest_quest$arg3%'
- '%TempVariable%toCheckThird=[Replace]%quests_player_has_current_quest_quest$arg3%'

Not it returns the right values, but the "'$Script$%if%" works not every time somehow. It's differently and works sometimes for "toCheckFirst" or "toCheckSecond" or on "toCheckThird". Sometimes on two of them and sometimes on all three of them. It also differs from recursive call. On the first one it works every time, on the second not and on the third sometimes again. I already tried to use [Replace] on everyone.

I am using for testing:

- '$Script$%if%toCheckThird==Nein' #Nein is false on german on the Quests Plugin for %quests_player_has_current_quest_<quest>%
- '$text$works1'
- '$text$'

Normally I use in the Code a Variable and it works normally, but sometimes it does not even work with the right value (like at the top):

- '%TempVariable%statusNötigSecond=false'

- '$Script$%if%toCheckSecond==statusNötigSecond'
- '$text$works1'
- '$text$'

I also tried to insert the exact value in the PAPI Placeholder and it does not work with this either. I assume it's a problem with the %TempVariable% in that the placeholder answer is getting inserted (in this case toCheckFirst):

- '%TempVariable%toCheckFirst=%quests_player_meets_requirements_to_start_Die erste Prufung%'

- '$Script$%if%toCheckFirst==true'
- '$text$works1'
- '$text$'

Problem found:

%TempVariable% is always using the same variable from the first run of the recursion and when I want to give an another value it is still using the old one:

- '%TempVariable%toCheckFirst=%quests_player_has_current_quest_quest$arg3%' #when it is true, it will be always true, I have to execute the

                                                                                                                                                      #command per hand one more time, so that it can have an 

                                                                                                                                                      #another value

You can maybe add a hotfix (it is a welcome feature aswell). I tried it like this, but it is not converting the $arg in the right order and I assume that the %TempVariable% has still the Name toCheckFirst$arg3:

- '%TempVariable%toCheckFirst$arg3=%quests_player_has_current_quest_quest$arg3%' #$arg3 is the counting up and is 1, 2, 3 and so on

I want to publish a big Quests update on my Minecraft Server for my community, but this is the only problem that is stopping me from that. It would be really nice, if you could bring a fix for that till Tuesday and maybe send me a dev version of the plugin again.

First of all, [Replace] is to be used only if you're including tempvars in the second part of the operation. In all other cases i guess it was working also before, because $args get's replaced before mycmd placeholders or papi.

On the problem you found, i'm not following you. Can you make an example and what you want as a result? What variable is still using?

Do an example with the desidered output and what instead happen. Because in this way, i can't help you.

How do you mean second part of the operation using [Replace]?

This is the used function, maybe this will help understand my problem. I will explain it a bit more beneath (I included just the necessary parts, green are the necessary comments on english):

This is how it looks like, if you can take both quests. This function show all of this dynamically, if you can accept or not the quests.

This is the /quests function, that uses the same function with other given variables to show the taken Quest "Die erste Prüfung". It is then not shown in the previous image anymore.

I don't know where to start, i think the best way is to talk in someway on discord if you want (contact in private) and try to explain better.

Second thing, you said at the first run is ok, and at the second one the old tempvars are still there? If that's the case i can add something to reset them, if that can help.
