Don't know why threads are closed so rash...

Of course it is possible to "script" in stringtable!
The stringtable is just a table full of strings! And what can you do with strings? You can execute them with "call"!!!

STR_BLA,   "hint format [{%1},name player]",...

To execute htis string, just type:

call (localize STR_BLA)


And next time plz don't close threads so fast!!!

Ace, if you get a 'no' response you can always leave the topic open in hope of a 'yes' answer. Up to you mate ;)
