sub AddDodgeS (strTriggerName, strLine, arrWildCards)
dim dodgeS = world.getvariable ("dodgesuccess")
dodgeS = dodgeS + 1
world.setvariable "dodgesuccess", dodgeS
end sub

How come this won't work? guess it's something with the dodgeS = dodgeS + 1 or something?

Please help :)

VB doesn't let you assign a variable to a DIM on the same line you declare it. What would work is this:



sub AddDodgeS (strTriggerName, strLine, arrWildCards) 

dim dodgeS 

dodgeS = world.getvariable ("dodgesuccess") 

dodgeS = dodgeS + 1 

world.setvariable "dodgesuccess", dodgeS 

end sub

However a shorter version (which does away with the DIM altogether) would be:



sub AddDodgeS (strTriggerName, strLine, arrWildCards) 

world.setvariable "dodgesuccess", world.getvariable ("dodgesuccess") + 1

end sub
