Is something like this already in the script, though? The original one had a MaxGP value.

It wasn't setting the value, it was taking it from a variable that I assumed you'd be creating. You can replace @gp with %mud.gp I think, but you'll need to get @MaxGP yourself.

The original one from Fang required YOU to supply the correct variable for max/current Gp.

Since you couldn't, and were unclear on what was going on, I supplied a script that might work without access to current/map Gp.

Now you've got the variable, pop it into Fang's script.

Isn't it displayed on the prompt or in your SCORE or somewhere? You can just have a trigger that picks out the relevant value from your prompt or score and writes the value to a variable.

Ok, you realize I know next to nothing about scripting right?

Indeed, but like as has been said so many times before, there's little we can do without more information about your specific problem. MUD output text is the best bet, because we can then use that text to create and test the trigger.

Well what output do you need now...

Well, I don't know since I don't know where you can get the MaxGP info. Anything that contains the MaxGP number - prompt, score, whatever.

Well there's score, and score brief commands. Here are my current variable values for both:

score:

You have 1339 (1339) hit points, 88 (240) guild points, 36 (643) quest points
and 112 (112) social points.
Your current experience is 215301 and you are level 72 in the Wizard's Guild; your
overall rating is 8544.

score brief:

Hp: 1339(1339) Gp: 88(240) Xp: 215304 Burden: 11%

The numbers in brackets are max, numbers outside are current value. But like I said, it regenerates by itself. Gp gets from 0 to max in roughly 3-4 minutes. The problem is that the Gp max value keeps increasing. Just yesterday it was at 238. How do you incorporate that into a script?

Posted: Fri Jul 06, 2007 4:03 am

#TR {H: %d~(%d~) Gp: %d~((%d)~) Xp: %d Burden: %d~%} {MaxGp=%1}

Whenever something happens to raise the MaxGp, "score brief" will change the value of your MaxGp variable.

In the script, this means that if casting a certain spell will raise it, then you should "cast spell;score brief"

So how do I implement it? Is this a separate trigger, or should I put it with the other? And is {H: %d~(%d~) Gp: %d~((%d)~) Xp: %d Burden: %d~%} pattern and {MaxGp=%1} script? Or am I just confused...but it isn't like a prompt, you have to type score brief manually, so how exactly would this work?

Also not sure, but is this a typo? This:

#TR {H: %d~(%d~) Gp: %d~((%d)~) Xp: %d Burden: %d~%} {MaxGp=%1}

should be this:

#TR {Hp: %d~(%d~) Gp: %d~((%d)~) Xp: %d Burden: %d~%} {MaxGp=%1}

?

Could be wrong though, like I said, not much of a scripter...would appreciate if someone could answer this.

I did say this in my very first reply:

#TR {Pattern} {Commands}

Yes, its a typo. If you look carefully you should be able to figure out what everything means. I left it vague on purpose, because you are new to this and its the best way to learn. Do you understand what %d means? The ~ character forces cmud to treat the ( ) as text characters, rather than special scripting characters. So looking at the instance of ~((%d)~) as opposed to ~(%d~), can you figure out why I put the difference there?

Lastly, yes its a separate trigger.

OK, I'm still kind of confused. Do I need to put the gp %mud.gp var in fang's script, and where does it go? Just replacing the first 2 values, or more?

The way I understand this is so.

You type "score brief" and get

Hp: 1339(1339) Gp: 88(240) Xp: 215304 Burden: 11%

You can make a trigger with this line

It seems that gauges are automatically created through MXP on this mud, prog. You can certainly do it that way with the correct pattern:

#trigger {^HP: (%d)~((%d)~) Gp: (%d)~((%d)~)$} {gp_current=%3;gp_max=%4}

and not

#trigger {^HP: (%d)~(%d)~) Gp: (%d)~(%d~)$} {gp_current=%3;gp_max=%4}

But you can also just use %mud.gp wherever I've used @Gp. There should be some sort of max gp variable too, if there's a gauge for it.

Blah, next time I'll try to avoid writing codes early morning before going to sleep :P
