lua - How to check the value of a boolean (set by user) with a variable string? -

the user sets boolean true or false.

that (exemple)

elementnameone = true elementnametwo = false elementnamethree = true

etc.

now have string loaded file. string called name can have values nameone, nametwo, namethree, etc. of them @ time. able this

if element .. name == true

except don't know how properly.

i've tried do

if not not ("element" .. name)

but not work.

can ?

thanks

try this:

if _g["element" .. name] == true     -- end

note work if variables set user (elementnameone, .. etc.) globals.
