# Inline functions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```{sidebar}
|
||
|
|
For much more information about inline functions, see the [FuncParser](../Components/FuncParser.md) documentation
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
_Inline functions_, also known as _funcparser functions_ are embedded strings on the form
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$funcname(args, kwargs)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> say the answer is $eval(24 * 12)!
|
||
|
|
You say, "the answer is 288!"
|
||

General processing of outgoing strings is disabled by default. To activate inline-function parsing of outgoing strings, add this to your settings file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FUNCPARSER_PARSE_OUTGOING_MESSAGES_ENABLED=True
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Inline functions are provided by the [FuncParser](../Components/FuncParser.md). It is enabled in a few other situations:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Processing of [Prototypes](../Components/Prototypes.md); these 'prototypefuncs' allow for prototypes whose values change dynamically upon spawning. For example, you would set `{key: '$choice(["Bo", "Anne", "Tom"])'` and spawn a random-named character every time.
|
||
|
|
- Processing of strings to the `msg_contents` method. This allows for [sending different messages depending on who will see them](./Change-Message-Per-Receiver.md).
