ok here is what i have so far for my triggers but they are not working so smoothly as i want them to maybe some of you could help me out

#TRIGGER {leaves} {#alarm +5 {look}}
#TRIGGER {Obvious exits are} {#pause;#alarm +2 {kill};}
#TRIGGER {Nothing on the list to kill.} {#ALARM +3 (#step)}
#TRIGGER {dig a grave for} {#reset klist;look;}
#TRIGGER {here !} {#alarm +2 {#step}}

ok here is what my problem is #alarm gets ahead of it self on the path and likes to skip mobs while i am fighting them because of multiple entries of (Nothing on the list to kill.}
Is there any way to make the #alarm only go off once

if any one could help me i would most appreciate it and if you need more info let me know thanks :)

Firstly, you have a command in there with brackets () round it rather than braces {}. That needs fixing.

Secondly, you need to be much more specific. What text are you receiving from the MUD that's supposed to make this work, and what's it actually doing? "Gets ahead of itself" isn't very helpful explaining what's going wrong, too. Is kill an alias or something? How is the klist variable populated? The more information we have, the more help we can give.

ok what i mean by getting ahead of its self is that when i do walk into a room with a monster i #step(or don't finish it off) instead of killing the monster because of the stack of #alarms to #step from previous rooms

@klist is just the list of monsters that will be put on the string when ever i walk into a room(if any are there} and kill them when ever i type kill

#if !%null( %1) {#send {kill %1}} {#if !%null( @klist) {#send {kill %pop( klist)}} {#show {Nothing on the list to kill.}}}

i just need away to tell the #alarm to only #Step once with multiple entries of Nothing on the list to kill. or to stop the alarm once it sees Nothing on the list to kill. and turn it back on when i #step to the next room

It looks like this trigger is the problem. #TRIGGER {here !} {#alarm +2 {#step}}

However, there is no way to tell without actual mud outputs. A minimum log of walking through 3 rooms and killing a few things in at least one of them would be needed.

Create an alarm like #alarm "StepAlarm" *3 {#step} and use the #suspend command to stop the alarm. You could also give an ID to the two alarms you have currently - if you give them the same ID, then a new alarm that's created will overwrite the old one, stopping it stacking like that.

well the {here ! trigger} works like this if my @klist gets confused and i type {kill @kylist = ape} and theres no ape in the room it will say something like this "no ape is here !"

Click the link - the help file has examples of how to pause and resume alarms.

See the StepAlarm part of the #alarm command I gave you? That's its ID - there's also a box on the UI for it. #suspend StepAlarm will stop it counting down. #resume StepAlarm will start it again.

hmm i can't figure out how to work it correctly with nothing on the list to kill because i still keep getting spam with nothing on the list to kill when i walk into a room with no monsters

Then we need more info on how the script works. At the moment, I don't understand the process it goes through when it enters the room - we need the text that Viji asked for and the entire code of the script to run our own tests on your script and work out why it's failing.

what i think is happening is that nothing on the list to kill gets stacked over from previous rooms when i walk into the next room with a monster it says nothing on the list to kill and make me leave that room when i don want to

Beginner Joined: 07 Aug 2005 Posts: 18

ok i think i figured it out but how it had something to do with leave

do you know how to set up a variable so that when a specific monster leaves the room a trigger goes off to look

ill give you an example

baboon leaves north
butterfly leaves south
horse leaves east

would there be away to set it up when ever the MUD sees

#VARIABLE leaves south it sets off a trigger to look?
