Alright so, let's say I have this string: zombie_colt_upgraded and I want to remove the _upgraded portion, you'd do.

Code Snippet

Plaintext

remove_upg_string(string)
{
return strTok(string,"_upgraded")[0];
}

And this will ONLY work on weapon strings that are zombie_NAME_upgraded and not other weapon names such as: m2_flamethrower_zombie_upgraded as it'll only return m2 as the string. So, I'm looking for another way to remove part of the string, anyone got any ideas/suggestions?

I would suggest getSubStr() and isSubStr if you want to do a check for the text first (which I reccomend).

Code Snippet

Plaintext

if(isSubStr(weapon_name, "upgraded")) 
	weapon_name = getSubStr(weapon_name, 0, weapon_name.size - 9);

Much obligied, if anyone wants to see the example I did:

What was inputted:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

		IPrintLn(remove_upg_string("m2_flamethrower_zombie_upgraded"));
		IPrintLn(remove_upg_string("zombie_colt_upgraded"));
