A little help with bringing a Zmud script to Cmud
|
Been trying to get this thing to work in Cmud for well over a week now and still no success. Not knowing what I'm doing isn't helping too much but I've read and reread every help file I can find and still no closer to a solution.
The script is as follows, with an explanation of the problem to follow it.
| Code: |
#ALIAS startmine {
#T+ mine1
#T+ mine2
minedir="%1"
mine %1
}
#TRIGGER "mine1" {You didn't find any resources.} {mine @minedir}
#TRIGGER "mine2" {You dig up * and drop it on a stack!} {mine @minedir}
#ALIAS stopmine {
#T- mine1
#T- mine2
minedir=""
}
|
The problem seems to be the %1 and Cmud, instead of it continuing along with mine e it returns a mine %1 which throws an error back from the mud. I'm at a loss how to get this to work, tried everything that I can think of and I know it's going to be something simple that is the problem. Maybe I can't see the forest for the trees as the saying goes. Any help of suggestions on this one would be very much appreciated.

Don't put your %1 in quotes. CMUD treats anything inside the quotes as literal and does not expand variables. It's the way zMUD should have handled them all along, but didn't for various (nefarious) reasons.

Many thanks Larkin, took the quotes out and it worked straight away. Guess I was looking for something more complex and didn't see the simple fix.

One thing you could try in the future if scripts don't work is the compatability report on the tools menu of the package editor. It probably would've flagged this problem.
