Probably something simple in the dictionary - but if I knew where to look I'd already have the answer.

If I have a script in the stack and I want it to act differently depending on what the current front card is, how do I do this?

So a message comes in from a socket, and the stack reads the message, and if it's on "Card 1" it'll send it to to "Field 1" and if it's on "Card 2" it'll ignore it.

You can use the ID of this or the short name of this cd to suit your needs.

Code: Select all

on preOpenStack
   runMe
end preOpenStack

on runMe
   switch the short name of this cd
      case "Fred"
         -- do the stuff related to this cd
         break
         
      case "Wilma"
         -- do the stuff related to this cd
         break
   end switch
end runMe
