Hi,

I've read this topic http://www.zuggsoft.com/page.php?file=zmud/timers.htm,
but still I don't have an idea what to use for something like that:

From MUD:
You lose concentration
Me After 7 Sec:
recast spell

but what is important for me it's to cast spell only once even if "You lose concentration" will be shown few times in a row, so:

You lose concentration
You lose concentration
You lose concentration

And me after the last "You lose concentration" and t sec:
recast spell - only once

Is there any way to do that?

for zMUD you will want to use an alarm.
naming the alarm will keep it from being replicated

#ALARM "recaster" +7 {recast}

Hey Again,

I have new idea, but I'm not sure where to start.

I need something like this:

From MUD:
You lose concentration
Me After 7 Sec:
recast spell

And after this, for 30 second, I would like to make triger "You lose concentration" not enabled.

I'm thinking abut something like that:

#TRIGGER {You lose concentration} { (anyway, what's or where's trigger ID?)
#ALARM "recaster" +7 {recast}
#ALARM "off" +8 {#T- You lose concentration (Is this trigger ID?)}
#ALARM "onr" +38 {#T+ You lose concentration (Is this trigger ID?)}
}

What do you think, will it work?

If you open the editor and look at your triggers, there is a little button neear the bottom that says more
expand that and you will see the ID field

#TRIGGER "spellFailed" {You lose concentration} {
#ALARM "recaster" +7 {recast}
#T- spellFailed
#ALARM "spellRestart" +38 {#T+ spellFailed}
}
