[v3.32] - MXP links doesn't work correct in Room triggers.
|
I just noticed that when I enter a room from my map that has a trigger to change text to an MXP link the first time I click it, it doesn't send the correct information.
See the video below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z9Q6Iso1YA
Here is the code:
| Code: |
<trigger priority="590" id="42">
<pattern>%qfarm%q</pattern>
<value><![CDATA[#sub {<send 'enter farm' 'Goto farm'><color PaleGreen>farm</color></send><color SlateBlue>(Cherry Blossom Farm)</color>}]]></value>
</trigger> |
When I first click the link it sends .(<enter farm>), but when I click it again it sends enter farm.
This only seems to happen with triggers in room for mapping.
I did a little more testing with this. If your remove the command with the sing quotes it sends the default command, but once you put the command in single quotes it echos the .(value) to the screen. If another command is sent to the mud like a direction, it will then do the command inside the single quotes. So it has something to do with the single quotes. |

I've been doing links similar to this this recently myself, and did not experience the trouble you describe. I don't have access to Cmud here at work, but I'll try testing when I get home.
[edit]My links have not been within room classes, so I'll try to check that later[/edit]
Have you tried the command '#send enter farm' instead of 'enter farm'? I assume the 'enter' is a mud command, not an alias you wrote. Using #send is a bit more reliable for sending raw commands to the mud in a script, since it does not have to pass through the trigger parser. |

Do you happen to have a path named farm, or enter farm, or anything like that?

I just tried you suggestion and it still does send the wrong information to the mud the first time you click the link. I definately think it has to do with being a room trigger.
See code:
| Code: |
| #sub {<send '#send enter farm' 'Goto farm'><color PaleGreen>farm</color></send><color SlateBlue>(Cherry Blossom Farm)</color>} |

Nope. I don't have any paths.
I also moved the trigger outside of the room class and it works fine. So it is a bug in the room classes. |

There must be some other script interaction going on. Try running the Script Debugger to see exactly what is running.
Here is what I did to try and reproduce this. I have a room with the word "cottage" in the room name. So I clicked on the room in the map, then clicked the Room Properties button. Then clicked the Scripting tab. Then clicked the "Edit scripts for this room" button.
CMUD opened the settings editor and created a room folder called "Room15". I copied your above Trigger in the first post to the clipboard, then right-clicked on the Room15 folder in the tree view on the left and selected Paste. This gave me a trigger within that room folder.
I then just edited the pattern of your trigger and changed "%qfarm%q" to "%qcottage%q" so it would match the name of the room.
Closed the settings editor and moved into the room. The room name in the main session window now shows this:
Nearing a humble farm(Cherry Blossom Farm).
When I hover over the "farm" link it says "Goto farm". When I click the link, it properly sends "enter farm" to the MUD.
So it seems to work just fine for me here. The Room folders in CMUD are no different than any other class folder, and the MXP code certainly doesn't care anything about the room folders. So I have no idea what could cause it to act like this on your system. |

I wondering now if this is something lingering from my old Shadows of Isildur session. I posted another thread about the multi-state button not working correctly and figured out is was some setting in my session, because when I recreated my script from scratch the problem disappeared. The map I am using was from that older session and is fairly large and I don't want to redo everything again.
I disabled all of my packages so that I didn't have any triggers to fire.
Checked my session window for any triggers. I don't have any. Only thing stored in my session window is classes with aliases or variables for my packages.
Checked to see if there is a alias for farm.. nope.
I did deleted the room trigger and recreated it following your above instructions and it still does the wrong thing.
There has to be something corrupted in my map.
Here is the log from when I enter the room.

I just tried the map conversion tool to see if that fixed the issue and is still doing it.
Also I just tried deleting the room from the map and recreating it from scratch with the room trigger and it still is sending the room script incorrectly.
Zugg do you want me to send you my map? |

What speedwalk mode are you in? Also what mapper mode (follow/map)? Also, exactly how are you moving to the room. In my case I was using the keypad macro to move manually. I was also in Fast mode.
The fact that CMUD is adding the . to the beginning and enclosing the command with () makes it seem like it is treating your command as a speedwalk command.
If you can reproduce the same problem when Offline and manually moving through your map, then yes, you can send me the map file. But if the problem only happens when connected then that won't help me. |

Zugg,
Speedwalk mode? Safe walk
mapper mode? I tried it with both ways in follow and map. I was just moving into the room by typing the direction. (n).
I sent you my map. I was able to reproduce it while offline. The map and package was sent to support@zuggsoft.com |

You didn't actually send the map file. You sent your package (pkg), layout (xly) and mapper configuration (zfg) but not the actual map database itself *.dbm.

Oops! Sending the map file now. |

Zugg, Did you get my map database? I sent it to the support email.
