Landail !nextstream script

;do everything inside { } when detected a user with level 10 sends !setnextstream on channel #landail
;user with lvl 10 or higher can type in chat !setnextstream which returns in #landail
;what to say when !nextstream is ran by ANYUSER
;script includes notes as to what ways use to achieve this as proper uses of spaces
;in messages send to chat channels need syntax like $+ $chr(160) to display spaces in some cases

on 10:text:!setnextstream*:#landail: {

  ;setup the first part of the next stream msg
  set %prestreamannouncemsg Lan's next stream will be

  ;append a SPACE aka $chr(160) to the %prestreamannouncemsg variable
  set %prestreamannouncemsg %prestreamannouncemsg $+ $chr(160)

  ;assign the userinput that contains the next stream data to the %nextstreampt2 variable
  set %nextstreampt2 $2-

  ;possible 2 ways to achieve the same thing
  ;set %wholestreammsg to include the static %prestreamannouncemsg variable and dynanmic variable %prestreamannounce containing the user input
  set %wholestreammsg %prestreamannouncemsg $+ %nextstreampt2

  ;announce to channel what the new !nextstream command has been set to
  msg #landail %wholestreammsg
  ;assign 1 to %streamnext to be used in a check later by !nextstream command
  set %streamnext 1
  ;sent to logfile who ran command
  echo -s $nick ran the !setnextstream command !nextstream should return -> %wholestreammsg
