Hi, im struggling with creation of database for kills and xp gained.

this is output from mud i play:

Your kick DISMEMBERS bodyguard!
Bodyguard IS DEAD!!
You receive 2 experience points.

I serched this forum, and found one or two kill counters but after some changes i cant force them to at least add +1 for kill count, not to mention catching XP gained being displayed in second line.

What i would like to have is database that gathers killcount and total xp gained from diferent mobs,
and an alias: 'showxp bodyguard' and it would display:
bodyguard [killed: 101] [average xp: 2]
and ofcourse other mobs with diferent names

ofcourse average xp is 2 becouse there was a math: 202/101 = 2 (202 as total is stored in database)

I know it would take some time to write such script, so maybe some tips on where to look for? or how to create 3 column database instead of 2? and how to increment kill count? How to read from both lines, while trigger starts at {* IS DEAD!!}

Something like this should work.... its untested though

#TR {(*) IS DEAD!!} {}
#COND {You receive (%d) experience points. } {
$killed=%t1
$xp=(%db(%db(@killChart, $killed), TotalXP)+%t2)
$kills=(%db(%db(@killChart, $killed), Killed)+1)
#ADDKEY killChart.${killed} TotalXP $xp
#ADDKEY killCHart.${killed} Killed $kills
#ADDKEY killChart.${killed} Average ($xp/$kills)
}

#ALIAS showxp($mob) {#SHOWDB %db(@killChart, $mob)}
