Hey there,

I don't know if you guys have seen the post in the steam forums yet, but since there is no reply and the bug isn't fixed in the current version, I'll copy the post into here.

Quote: "There seems to be a problem with GetStringToken2.
Whenever I try to access the first token, an empty string is returned.
GetStringToken works just fine (but doesn't recognize empty fields which I need to be recognized).

The code

+ Code Snippet

token$ = GetStringToken2("one;two;three;four;", ";", 1)
print("1: "+token$)

token$ = GetStringToken2("one;two;three;four;", ";", 2)
print("2: "+token$)

token$ = GetStringToken2("one;two;three;four;", ";", 3)
print("3: "+token$)

token$ = GetStringToken2("one;two;three;four;", ";", 4)
print("4: "+token$)

results in

+ Code Snippet

1: 
2: two
3: three
4: four

Here's a little workaround (use it the same way as GetTokenString2):

+ Code Snippet

function GetStringToken3(instr as string, delim as string, indx as integer)
	gts3tmp$= delim+instr
	gtstoken$ = GetStringToken2(gts3tmp$,delim,indx+1)
endfunction gtstoken$
