Disabling or deleting triggers from command line
|
Basically, I've created a temp trigger, but sometimes it doesn't fire as intented. Is there an easy way to disable it or delete via a command if it fails to fire or doesn't fire after a certain time? For some reason I can't get the option {dur|param=1000} to work, the trigger still fires after 1000 milliseconds. Or am I missing something?
Thanks. |

If you want to disable a trigger from the command line, type #T- {trigger id or trigger}. For instance:
#TRIGGER {The sword glows blue.} {drop sword}
If I wanted to disable the above trigger, I'd type:
#T- {The sword glows blue.}
If I have "Cursed" as an ID on it, though, I'd type:
#T- "Cursed"
As for why your trigger isn't working, I can't help there right now. I'm not on zMUD. :P

Using #T+ and #T- seem to do the trick, not ideal but it seems a good enough work around. Thank you. :)

Unless the pattern line is part of a really large block of text coming all at once (sometimes Zmud's parser will give up the fight entirely instead of trying to muddle through a backlog of processing), the only times I've ever seen triggers fail to fire is within the automapper or when the pattern doesn't actually match the line. Moving out of a room with an active temporary trigger in the room script causes the mapper to flake out enough that the trigger never fires even if you re-enter the room before the temp-trigger pattern line comes through. |

The trigger fires, the problem I found was that using the {dur|param=1000} option doesn't seem to work.. it can still fire after 1000 milliseconds.

It's a known issue, but might not change - the trigger will fire once after the duration expires and not again.
