Strings as arrays?

by Brian Lococo · in Torque Game Engine · 07/21/2004 (9:51 am) · 1 replies

Ok I have a question...

Say I do the following in script
%a = "TestString";

How do i set the first character in that string.
%b = ?

for instance, in c++ i could just say
char a[11] = "TestString";
a[0] = 'B';

I know that you can use the GetSubStr to get individual characters, it would make since
to have a SetSubStr function...

Thx for your help in advance!

    There's always the creative way:
    %a = "B" @ getsubstr(%a, 1);

    Now %a == "BestString";

    :)

    Edited: Woops I was thinking about PHP when using . to add strings together, hehe...
