Triggers not working.
 
Hello,

I'm using the following script:
Code:

#TRIGGER {*Qyrios*~(*(%w)~)}
#COND {You are level (%d) ~(*~) and (%d)~% of the way to the next level.} {
  #VAR level %1
  #VAR percent %2
  } {within|param=1}
#COND {Health:%s(%d)%s/%s(%d)%sMana:%s(%d)%s/%s(%d)%s} {
  #VAR curHealth %1
  #VAR maxHealth %2
  #VAR curMana %3
  #VAR maxMana %4
  } {within|param=1}
#COND {Endurance:%s(%d)%d/%d(%d)%sWillpower:%s(%d)%s/%s(%d)%s}{
  #VAR curEndurance %1
  #VAR maxEndurance %2
  #VAR curWillpower %3
  #VAR maxWillpower %4
  }


When you do QSC in Achaea you will see a quick score which includes level, health, mana etc. The above script is supposed to put those things into variables.

Doing QSC looks like this:

Code:

Forestwalker Qyrios (male Satyr)
You are level 10 (Nice) and 27% of the way to the next level.
Health:       1000 / 1000     Mana:         800 / 800
Endurance:   7000 /7000     Willpower:   5000 /5000
Strength: 13  Dexterity: 13  Constitution: 13  Intelligence: 10


However, the variables are not loaded. I've been looking at this tutorial.

Could someone help me troubleshoot?

Thank you.

{Endurance:%s(%d)%s/%s(%d)%sWillpower:%s(%d)%s/%s(%d)%s}

There is no space between the slash and max value, same for willpower...However health does have it and is a 4 digit number, bad number padding.

I changed it to:
Code:

#COND {You are level (%d) ~(*~) and (%d)~% of the way to the next level.} {
  #VAR level %1
  #VAR percent %2
  } {within|param=1}
#COND {Health:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%sMana:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%s} {
  #VAR curHealth %1
  #VAR maxHealth %2
  #VAR curMana %3
  #VAR maxMana %4
  } {within|param=1}
#COND {Endurance:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%sWillpower:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%s}{
  #VAR curEndurance %1
  #VAR maxEndurance %2
  #VAR curWillpower %3
  #VAR maxWillpower %4
  }


Only now I'm getting parse errors.

The padding is filled up when your stats get bigger.

you could use ([%s%d]) and then %trim(%1) the parameters

I tried that, it doesn't give parsing errors, but it doesn't seem to work either. What could I try next?

OH OH Oh, typo tfl, <3 the cmud syntax highlighter.

Code:
#TRIGGER {*Qyrios*~(*(%w)~)}
#COND {^You are level (%d) ~(*~) and (%d)~% of the way to the next level.$} {
  #VAR level %1
  #VAR percent %2
  } {within|param=1}
#COND {^Health:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%sMana:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%s} {
  #VAR curHealth %1
  #VAR maxHealth %2
  #VAR curMana %3
  #VAR maxMana %4
  } {within|param=1}
#COND {^Endurance:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%sWillpower:%s(%d)*/*(%d)%s} {
  #VAR curEndurance %1
  #VAR maxEndurance %2
  #VAR curWillpower %3
  #VAR maxWillpower %4
  } {within|param=1}


From your last code post, the only IMPORTANT change is a space on the 3rd condition, space between the pattern and the script, and the original trigger.

Besides that, I added line anchors, will help trigger matching speed, and accuracy, not that it should give you false positives, but a good habit to get into, and the within 1 line param to last condition.

It works a bit better now. When I type QSC it will read 'r' into level, and it will output Variable: percent.

Like so:
Code:

Forestwalker Qyrios (male Satyr)
You are level 12 (Good) and 34% of the way to the next level.
Variable: percent             
Health:       1000 / 1000     Mana:         1000 / 1000
Endurance:   1000 /1000     Willpower:   1000 /1000
Strength: 13  Dexterity: 13  Constitution: 13  Intelligence: 10


However, it doesn't work yet.

And what exactly is the function of '$' in the above code?

^ is a beginning line anchor $ is end of line anchor.

Since I have tried quite some things, but still can't get it to work I have decided to start with something simple:
Code:

#CLASS {test}
#VAR testvar {0} {0}
#TRIGGER {} {}
#TRIGGER {Forestwalker Qyrios (male Satyr)} {#VAR testvar 1}
#CLASS 0


This doesn't work either, it's supposed just to change the value of testvar from 0 into 1 when the line "Forestwalker Qyrios (male Satyr)" appears on the screen.

What's the problem?

You need to escape the parentheses, zmud is seeing those as a capture. It's been long time since i've used zmud, but i'ld also remove the first empty trigger, not sure what it's purpose is, try:

Code:
#CLASS {test}
#VAR testvar {0} {0}
#TRIGGER {^Forestwalker Qyrios ~(male Satyr~)$} {#VAR testvar 1;#show {testvar is now: @testvar}}
#CLASS 0

I have now tried the following, it looks like this:



Only when I rightclick, and export it I see this:
Code:

#CLASS {test}
#VAR testvar {0} {0}
#TRIGGER {Forestwalker Qyrios (male Satyr)} {#VAR testvar 1}
#CLASS 0


What's going on?
