Format: /rps <number> <var>

Lets say that we have vars:

%server1 192.168.1.64:27015
%server2 192.168.1.64:27016
%server3 192.168.1.64:27017

and we type the command: /rps 2 server
we will have

%server1 192.168.1.64:27015
%server2 192.168.1.64:27017

It works with all variables,

%asd1 1
%asd2 2
%asd3 3

/rps 3 asd

%asd1 1
%asd2 2

/rps 1 asd

%asd1 2
%asd2 3

etc...

WARNING. If you have
%server1 asd1
%server2 asd2
%server3 asd3
%Server.1 dfa
%server.2 dfaf
%serverafaf 342d

Mirc will be crash...!!!

alias RPS {

  var %i = $1

  while (%i <= $var($+($chr(37),$2,*),0) ) {

    if ($var($+($chr(37),$2,*),$calc( %i + 1 )) != $null) { set % [ $+ [ $2 ] ] [ $+ [ %i ] ] % [ $+ [ $2 ] ] [ $+ [ $calc( %i + 1 ) ] ] } 

    else { unset % [ $+ [ $2 ] ] [ $+ [ %i ] ] }

    inc %i

  }

}

i mean that the one variable take the others.. if you want, it is an extra snippet. there is not for everyone.. who ever wants... Lets Say tha you have 3 servers and you want to unset the 2 server, and you have a loop to read all the servers, you can use /rps 2 server so the server 3 will take the position of server 2 and server3 will be removed, and the loop will work fine:

Vars:

		Code 			
%server1 asd
%server2 asd2
%server3 asd3
	

<loop>

		Code 			
 
var %i = 1
 while (%i <= $var(%server*,0) ) {
  echo -a %server [ $+ [ %i ] ] ;Returns Servers's values
  inc %i
 }
}
	

Now if you unset %server2
the loop will not echo %server3 ... because it has 2 servers so it will be read %server1 and %server2 , but %server2 does not exists so it will return only %server1
with this alias when you type:
/rps 2 server
will unset %server2 and %server3 took its place so the alias will be continued normaly

		Code 			
%server1 asd
%server2 asd3
	

so now the loop will return:
asd
asd3

That doesn't make much sense ProIcons. Do you have an example of when/why you would use this. I have never had any variables %server1 %server2 etc.

With the command /rps 2 server you unset the variable %server2 and var %server3 took %server2's place, and etc... Example

We Have Variables:
%server1 asd
%server2 asd2
%server3 asd3
%server4 asd4

rps 2 server (%server2)

Now We have variables:

%server1 asd
%server2 asd3
%server3 asd4

You should make it so it doesn't crash.
