1 more question .. so as to not waste space

if i wanted to do a random spell based on a list i have

say (berserk, assail, ... )

how would i do it to make it randomly chosen?.

The execution code would look something like

#VAR Spell %case( %rand( 1, 4),"Spell 1","Spell 2"."Spell 3","Spell 4"))
cast @Spell

Put that in a trigger, or macro of your choice. Change the max value to something higher if you have more spells to use, or cut it down accordingly.

If you have a large spell list with available spells you want to cast you could use something like:

The list you have:
#VAR SpellList Spell1|Spell2|Spell3|Spell4

Then put the folowing in an alias/marco/trigger thing:

cast %item(@SpellList, %random(1, %numwords(@SpellList,"|")))

Then just add to @SpellList if you want to expand the number of spells

Thanks for the help...

Is there anyway to put weights on the spell... like this one happens a percentage more than anotheR?

Well, if you want one spell to happen twice as often, put it twice as often in the spell list... but, that's the only way I can think of.

Trying to trigger a trigger from a trigger.. without going through the mud..

so just like a function calling a trigger?? any ideas

Instead of trying to use one trigger to set off another, make the second one an alias instead. Another method would be to just include the commands in the first trigger.

How about making windows that branch from the orginal mud... corresponding to the differnt lines

And having command prompts to them so that when i type in them.. i dont need the prefix

example : in regular window i have to type clan hi

but in this subwindow command prompt.. i just type hi

any ideas?

If you want to use the command-line attached to a particular window, use this (and be sure to put this trigger in each window's settings file):

#oninput {(*)} {;this is the CLAN trigger;#say (insert character name here): %1;#send {clan %1}}

I'm not too sure about #SEND but it supposedly sends things directly to the i/o stream (your connection to the MUD) and bypasses the windows.
