Capturing a number in a VAR..
|
(Glowing) a Solstice Potion (17)
(Glowing) a glowing violet potion (258)
a dispel magic potion (22)
Say I wanted to capture the quantity of my violet potions in a variable, when I examine the container.
Just doing, #trigger {(glowing) a glowing violet potion ((%w))} isn't doing anything, and is that because of the (( ))?
I'm not even sure how to word this question, heh. Hopefully someone just knows what I mean. |

Try
| Code: |
| #TRIGGER {~(Glowing~) a glowing violet potion (~(%d~))} |
That might work better IMHO.
Even better use a regex pattern...
| Code: |
| #TRIGGER {(\(Glowing\) a glowing violet potion (\(\d+\))} |
which is probably faster. |

%w captures a word, %d captures a number. You can look at Pattern Matching for more info.

A regex will only be about 0.000001s faster, and only the first time a trigger fires for that session. The only difference between a CMUD pattern and a regex is that CMUD patterns need to be converted into regexes before they're compiled. Once that happens, there's no speed benefit to using a regex. |
