How to remove a bunch of text?

[OnlineCheater]

Hey all,

I actually wonder how to remove a piece of text, I'm gonna give you examples:

For example I want to show a list of maps, those maps contain tags and i want to remove those tags only from the whole name.

I know it's a string.gsub or something, another string maybe, I don't remember and that's why I'm asking you.

Well, for exemple those mapnames:

"/ABC/ Mapname1"

"/DEF/ Mapname2"

"/OEHSHE/ Mapname3"

"/HSIUXOP/ Mapname4"

So here is my question, how to remove those tags between / /, should I create a table with all the tags and then do something like

  
tableName = {"/ABC/", "/DEF/", "/OEHSHE/", "/HSIUXOP/"} 
for i, v in pairs(tableName) do  
    if string.find(mapname, "v") then  
        mapname = mapname:string.gsub(v, "")  
    end  
end 
  

That's all I wanted to know, thanks in advance!

where is mapname defined if you reach line 4?

Mapname is like those 4 examples which I wrote before the code.

Do you understand it ?

No I don't understand but you could just add this to your code if I'm correct.

string.gsub(v, "/", "") 

Argument 1 is the string, 2 is what pattern (what to find), 3 what to make the pattern (in this case nothing)

Alright

else the way of removing the tags should work right?

Gonna test it tomorrow

What I would do tho is this;

local maps = {"/ABC/", "/DEF/", "/OEHSHE/", "/HSIUXOP/"} 
for i, v in pairs(maps) do 
     maps[i] = string.gsub(v, "/", "") 
end 

Since I guess the default names aren't needed anymore.
