Alright, I am updating MrBigglesworthDeath to add user selectable chat output. The slash commands to switch type work, and all the expected results are good, save one.

On line 16, I am trying to localize what the user selects to give feedback, however, the string is printing as is –– literally it is printing "Using %s chat type" instead of "Using RAID chat type" or "Using SAY chat type" for example.

What am I missing? It has to be simple...

Also, I plan on adding random chat sayings for the death message, and wanted to know that would work. Hey, I'm learning here!

OK, so it would look like

local msg = string.format(L.MBD_CHAT_OUTPUT, self.options.chat)

Or would it be

local msg = string.format(L.MBD_CHAT_OUTPUT, addon.options.chat)

So, um, feeling stupid here, where would I put that since there is multiple occurrences of that message being printed? Or would I have to put that in every function that prints the message? Just wondering if there is a place in my code to do the string.format once and have the whole thing done?

Let me guess: line 16 should read

MBD_CHAT_OUTPUT = string.format("Using %s chat type.", addon.settings.chat)

?

Alright, thanks for the shortcut, Jerry, and to Tekkub for the obvious. There is only one issue left, and that when I do the /mbd default command, it prints out the message correctly, but doesn't change the settings back to default. The strange thing is that I didn't play with that bit of code.

is the newest pastey. I wonder why that command isn't working?

**edit** nvm, I figured it out. It was that redundant line 121 ... I just commented out the whole line, and voila!
