Question - Check which channel I am in

[Soandso2]

How do I (if possible) check, for example, if I am in the General chat channel? Or any channel, by name?

 

[tomahawkeer]

/list or /list all

I am trying to remember this. I believe it's /list? It will list all the channels you are in? I haven't had to think about this one for awhile.

/list or /list all

Oh, I ment in a Lua script. Is thre a TLO or something? like me.Channel("General")() or whatever.
I am looking for something similar to mq.getFilteredSpawns I guess.

These should do the trick,

[TABLE=collapse]
[TR]
[TD]bool[/TD]
[TD]ChatChannel[name][/TD]
[TD]Returns TRUE if name is joined[/TD]

[TR]
[TD]int[/TD]
[TD]ChatChannels[/TD]
[TD]Returns the number of channels currently joined[/TD]

[TR]
[TD]string[/TD]
[TD]ChatChannel[#][/TD]
[TD]Returns the name of chat channel #[/TD]

You can do a /list and then parse the information using events. But that's a whole basket of extra stuff as a non-coder.

Well, whaddayaknow? That was exactly what I was looking for. Bugs me that I did not find that out myself. Many thanks, kind sir/ma'am.

Once alerted to the fact that there actually IS a TLO for this (kind of), it was easy to solve.
