A question on stats.

Let's say I have a stapanel called "Skills" and I
have a skill called "melee". Is it possible
to add a "+", instead of a number, next to a skill each time you fight a set number of monsters?
Example:

melee +
melee ++

I have this for now:

mob
    var
        level

    Stat()
        statpanel("Skills")
        stat("Melee",level)


I'm not sure how to add add a + sign to "level".

mob
    proc
        skilllevel(mob/M as mob)
            M.level += ???


Any ideas ?

Thx.

You could initialize level to an empty string:
mob
    var
        level = ""

And then where you increase level, just add the string "+" to it:
mob
    proc
        skilllevel(mob/M as mob)
            M.level += "+"


That will tack another + onto the end of the string.

Is it possible to add a new stat inside a statpanel or
do I have to put them all at the start ?
For example, I learn a second skill called "Force"
and I want it to be under "Melee".

Thx.

This isn't probably the best way to do this but here's what I do:

mob/var/has_fire = 0

mob/Stat()
    statpanel("Skills")
    if(src.has_fire)
        stat("Fire attack")
    
mob/verb/Add_Fire()
    src.has_fire=1

I tried adding a tag inside the string. Example:
M.level += "<Big>+</Big>"


It doesn't work though...
Is it possible at least ?

Thx.

Html cannot be used in verb panels or statpanels.
