Trigger on Tick Timer question
|
I have a variable:
Name: test
Value: 10
I have a trigger:
Pattern: Timer now at 50 secs.
Value: #add test 1
When a tick occurs and the tick timer echoes "Timer now at 50 secs."
The variable jumps from 10 to 12.
However, if I send myself a tell, making this appear "You tell yourself: Timer now at 50 secs.",
it jumps from 10 to 11.
Why? |

What exctly does the tick timer do? It sounds like you have it show a message AND increment a variable in addition to the trigger that also increments the same variable.

If I do a simple echo trigger like:
Pattern: Timer now at 50 secs.
Value: #echo Test
It gives the result:
Timer now at 50 secs.
Test
Test
It seems to do the action twice, for some reason? |

Try another test for us. Make an alias that prints out Test and execute it.
I'm thinking that you will also get two lines instead of one.
If you do then you probably need to adjust your session settings so that you are not inheriting your settings AND loading them.
Don't do anything though until you do the testing. |

Only prints one time.
Same if I manually type 'Timer now at 50 secs',
it only echoes once.
When the actual tick occurs however, it echoes twice.
And the thing is, I have the same settings, tick timer and
everything, on two computers, and it only does this
on one of them.
Any other ideas? |

Is the trigger set to trigger on new line and set to trigger on prompt?

It is set to trigger on newline.
But same result if trigger on prompt is checked too. |

Try doing #show instead of echo?
I'm sorry I don't have Zmud installed to test this but I'm grasping at straws. |

I created a new settings file with only the tick timer, and the echo trigger, and now it works.
I thought I had the same settings on both computers, but apparantly something is messing it up.
I have no idea what though, but I will try to find it.
Appreciate all your help Arminas. |
