Trouble capturing battle prompt.
|
Okay I have this pesky battle prompt that's always given me trouble:
| Code: |
F : [ 2% ] - S : [ 1% ] - N : None - I : [ 70% ]
F : [ 20% ] - S : [ 4% ] - N : None - I : [ 100% ] |
Notice how when there is more digits the amount of spaces changes?
I've tried a variety of ways to capture it, for example:
^F : ~[* (%d)~% *~] - S : ~[* (%d)~% *~] - N ~: &{nervature} - I : ~[* (%d)~% *~]$
This one though doesn't capture the pattern at all. Another one would capture the pattern
and the variables but the variables would have spaces before the numbers. So basically
I'm trying to get it to both capture the line regardless of spaces and then also ignore the
spaces once captured. I've gotten help from several CMUD users but none were able to
successfully help me. Any suggestions? |

^F : ~[%s(%d)~%%s~] - S : ~[%s(%d)~%%s~] - N ~: &{nervature} - I : ~[%s(%d)~%%s~]$

%s, in case you're curious, will capture variant amount of spaces. It is equivalent to \s+ in regex.

I appreciate the help unfortunately the suggested pattern didn't capture. I've tried changing it slightly,
I removed the () around %d, I also added spaces between the ~%%s because both % were coming up
highlighted. Still nothing works. Any other ideas?
This was the one pattern that I made that actually captured but it captured the spaces as well.
F ~: ~[%1~%*~] - S ~: ~[%2~%*~] - N : &{nervature} - I : ~[%3~%*~]
#VAR fatigue %replace(%1, ,"")
#VAR stress %replace(%2, ,"")
#VAR intensity %replace(%4, ,"")
EDIT:
I may have found a solution
F ~: ~[%s%1~%*~] - S ~: ~[%s%2~%*~] - N : &{nervature} - I : ~[%s%3~%*~]
#VAR fatigue %replace(%1, ,"")
#VAR stress %replace(%2, ,"")
#VAR intensity %replace(%4, ,"")
This seems to work nicely so far, thanks for the help :) |

1)don't use %1...%99 in trigger patterns. If you need a helpfile reference for wildcards, check out Pattern Matching.
2)remove the {} from around nervature. {} denote a stringlist, which is not what you are wanting to use if the & is any indication. The correct form is &varname. You can also limit the matching power of &varname using wildcards, ie, &%wnervature.
3)if your prompt doesn't end with a newline, remove the $ and check/uncheck Trigger on Newline (trigger will fire when the current line ends with a newline) and Trigger on Prompt (trigger will fire as soon as the pattern matches) as appropriate. |

It's most likely number 3 that you need to take notice of because I tested the trigger pattern I gave you with the examples you provided and both matched.

Yup, I play on the same mud and this:
^F : ~[* (%d)~% *~] - S : ~[* (%d)~% *~] - N ~: &{nervature} - I : ~[* (%d)~% *~]$
... works perfectly for me with the newest CMUD beta. |
