Hi all,

I have a trigger when <playername> enters from
it targets player
casts spell
waits 3 seconds
targets player
casts spell
waits 3 seconds......about 20 times

My request for help is to try get it so that when "player is not hurt" or "monster has died" is displayed from the mud, get it to stop.

Also, is their a simple way to repeat the above 3 commands until that criteria is met?

Thanks.

There's lots of ways. The simplest is probably to use an alarm that fires every 3 seconds - pattern *3 - and enable and disable it as required.

This should do it, you will have to fill in one blank.

The third trigger should probably also turn off the second trigger, and the first trigger turn it on. Otherwise the second trigger will try to cast without a target.

perhaps, but i dont see how the second trigger is ever going to misfire, so long as the spell is only ever cast by script. but to error proof it

Thank you very much for your help. This has helped me create the script i was hoping for and also got the elements of error detection for when spells "fizzle" (small failure chance)
