Tutorial - Show Balance w/ MacroMod

This is how you get your balance to show on the game screen at all times using the Macromod/Keybind mod.

Create a script called check_chat.txt:

Code:

$${
// trim chat
STRIP(&chat,%CHAT%);
// update balance
IFMATCHES(%&chat%,^\[EcoDollars\] (.*));
  MATCH(%&chat%,^\[EcoDollars\] \$(.*),{@&balance});
  IFMATCHES(%@&balance%,^([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+));
    MATCH(%@&balance%,^([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+),{@&balanceround,@&rest});
      SET(@#balance,%@&balanceround%);
  ELSE;
    SET(@#balance,%@&balance%);
  ENDIF;
SETLABEL(balance,$%@&balance%,balance);
ENDIF;
}$$

On the Events binding for onChat type in

Code:

$$<check_chat.txt>

Create a second script called loop_bal.txt:

Code:

$${
DO;
ECHO("/bal");
WAIT(90);
}$$

On the Events binding for onJoinGame type in

Code:

$$<loop_bal.txt>

To make it show up all the time, go to the Macro Buttons screen, click Edit GUI in the lower right, and select the ingame screen. Create a label named balance with a binding of balance, and place it wherever you want the balance to show up.

Tada.
