TAB

Hi, this is a question regarding TAB.
I have seen it in a behavior, in the first if(!isObject()) {} statement where %spawnlocation = "Area" TAB "Edges"
I was wondering what this means as there isn't an instant listing in TDN.

So what is the difference between this and SPC. Is SPC strictly for numbers while TAB (at least in the example I saw) separates words?

I will answer with three quotes.From TorqueScript QuickReference (URL in previous post):
Quote:
Concatenates strings $c and $d into a single string separated by tab.
Note: such a string can be decomposed with getField()

Anyhow, I have seen that TAB, @ and SPC all act as string operators if I am correct.
SPC for between words
TAB between numbers
and @between Commands and its variable, say getSpeed where speed is %speed.

'@', 'SPC', 'TAB', and 'NL' go between 2 strings and return a new string.
They don't act on words, numbers, commands, or variables. They simply go between 2 strings and return a new string as a result.

Because I don't want anybody to be confused:'@', 'SPC', 'TAB', and 'NL' go between 2 strings and return a new string.
