Zugg Software :: View topic - Help with stat roller for "The Final Challenge" mud

Beginner Joined: 19 Jul 2016 Posts: 12

Ive been doing alot of research and found 20+ stat rollers on the forums but haven't had any luck modifying them to work with my mud, here's a sample of what a stat roll looks like. What I am trying to achieve is at least all scores AVG or better, plus a minimum of 2 MAX scores before accepting the roll.. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I'll be continuing to try and fiddle with modifying another roller but i have a feeling it might be easier to make one from scratch, which i'm not capable of doing =(

**Also anything but a "Y" will reroll the stats** I'd like it to auto yes once the min requirements have been met, also maybe highlight with color and beep.

*****Stat order LOW, BAVG. AVG, AAVG, HIGH, MAX******

Your stats are:

Str: AVG. Int: AVG. Wis: LOW. Dex: AVG.
Con: AVG. Chr: BAVG. Luc: AVG. - Accept? (Y/N): n

Str: BAVG. Int: LOW. Wis: BAVG. Dex: HIGH.
Con: AAVG. Chr: LOW. Luc: MAX. - Accept? (Y/N): n

Str: AVG. Int: MAX. Wis: LOW. Dex: AAVG.
Con: LOW. Chr: LOW. Luc: BAVG. - Accept? (Y/N): n

Str: AAVG. Int: BAVG. Wis: AVG. Dex: AVG.
Con: AVG. Chr: AVG. Luc: LOW. - Accept? (Y/N): n

Str: AVG. Int: LOW. Wis: AVG. Dex: AVG.
Con: AAVG. Chr: LOW. Luc: LOW. - Accept? (Y/N): n

Something like this should do the trick:

This came back as "Error parsin command" : Illegal token {yes} {no

^^Okay i was able to make a class in the settings folder and pasted that into the XML, went to roll a character and nothing happened.

Is there an alias i have to use to turn it on and off? is it something i need to define mylsef?

I also found this that someone had made for our mud I guess but im not sure how to modify it to search for 2 max's on top of no low or bavg scores. this is what i have and its working correctly as it is, Also this was writen for Zmud but seems to work in my Cmud: **** Ive noticed this isnt stopping once it reaches the desired roll. I tried to modify it to only search for one score not low and it still keeps resetting. I must be missing something simple

#CLASS {AUTOROLL} {disable}
#VAR oklevels {AVG|AAVG|HIGH|MAX} {AVG|AAVG|HIGH|MAX}
#VAR numchecked {5} {0}
#VAR numok {5} {0}
#VAR con {AVG} {}
#VAR chr {LOW} {}
#VAR luc {AVG} {}
#VAR str {AVG} {}
#VAR int {AAVG} {}
#VAR wis {AVG} {}
#VAR dex {LOW} {}
#TRIGGER {^Con:%s&%w{con}.%sChr:%s&%w{chr}.%sLuc:%s&%w{luc}.%s- Accept~? ~(Y/N~):} {numok = 0;numchecked = 0;#forall {str|int|wis|dex|con|luc} {#ad numchecked 1;#if (%ismember( @%i, @oklevels)) {#ad numok 1}};#if (@numok == @numchecked) {Y;#T- AUTOROLL} {N}} "" {nocr|prompt}
#TRIGGER {^Str:%s&%w{str}.%sInt:%s&%w{int}.%sWis:%s&%w{wis}.%sDex:%s&%w{dex}.%s$} {}
#CLASS 0
#TRIGGER {^Your stats are:$} {#T+ AUTOROLL}

It worked fine on my local tests, unless the mud is just rejecting the extended form of the command.
Try editing the yes to y and the no to n.

Are you sure you pasted it to the XML tab on not the script text tab?

yeah posted to xml tab, Ill try above changes and see what happens. Ive plugged the changes in and nothing seems to happen at character creation. Is there an alias i use to beging the trigger? I dont see one anywhere in the script provided. Once i hit n a few times manually it started the roller. If it helps the mud im playing address is Tfc.tfcmud.com port 4000, maybe you can try it there and see if its working correctly for you? Also i'd like to exclude CHR from the search criteria as it can be low or bavg for all I care. It will greatly decrease time needed to make the criteria for a "good roll" And i believe that I need to modify it to accept 1 BAVG score or seems to roll for 30 mins until my mud times out and resets connection =( Unfortunetly i cant let the "autoroller" run for more then 30 mins at a time. So i need to lessen the criteria in order to actually get a roll to stick. I'd prefer the LOW be in CHR and the BAVG be in STR if anything. But beggers cant be choosers so any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks much! - Dedicated to Cmud for Life!

Current the one I provided is not checking for any specific stat, but only the count of specific results.

The #IF statement is doing all the heavy work:

#IF ((@low=0) AND (@bavg=0) AND (@max>=2))

Change it to this to allow for 1 bavg:

#IF ((@low=0) AND (@bavg<=1) AND (@max>=2))

To weight it for specific stats would require a more complex roller design

^^ Okay will try that for now and see if I can get it to land a roll. Thanks much

Okay so its been a few years since I reached out to you about an auto roller script for my mud... I got your script working but it has a problem where when it finally gets desired stats it tries to accept, but it rolls one last time just before character creation finishes and logs into the mud causing the stats to be random and not the desired roll we just achieved. Heres a look at what happens

And any help is GREATLY appreciated.

Str: AVG. Int: LOW. Wis: BAVG. Dex: AVG.
Con: LOW. Chr: BAVG. Luc: LOW. - Accept? (Y/N):
n
Roller reset to its startup value

Str: AAVG. Int: BAVG. Wis: LOW. Dex: AVG.
Con: LOW. Chr: AVG. Luc: BAVG. - Accept? (Y/N):
n
Roller reset to its startup value

Str: AAVG. Int: AVG. Wis: AAVG. Dex: AVG.
Con: AVG. Chr: BAVG. Luc: MAX. - Accept? (Y/N):
yes

Str: AAVG. Int: LOW. Wis: AAVG. Dex: LOW.
Con: BAVG. Chr: HIGH. Luc: HIGH. - Accept? (Y/N):
n
Roller reset to its startup value

Seems like it wants just a y and the full yes is being treated like an n?

Beginner Joined: 19 Jul 2016 Posts: 12

I actually changed it both ways to test that and it doesn't seem to matter, still performs the same way =( Wish it would have been that simple

It will get a decent set of stats generated, Accept it with either a yes or a y, but then it will roll one last time generating random undesired stats and even enter the game answering n to that last roll.

Is there a way to add a line to the code stating something like #if y then noreset ? I know that wont work but i was just giving an example of what i was thinking. that way if it accepted a roll it wouldnt try to reset that last time

you could do a:

#T- AUTOROLL

somewhere and turn off the whole class

Beginner Joined: 19 Jul 2016 Posts: 12

okay, does this seem right to you?

<trigger priority="9450" id="55">
<pattern>- Accept~? ~(Y/N~)</pattern>
<value>#IF ((@low=0) AND (@bavg<=1) AND (@max>=1)) {y;#T- AUTOROLL } {n;#RESET Roller}</value>
</trigger>

Sorry im really green when it comes to scripting so i appologize for my millon questions, especially if thet seem dumb

***Edit : So the script worked as usual when adding that #t- AUTOROLL inserted , but it still didn't stop rolling immediately upon reaching desired stats, it fired one last time
giving random bullshit stats before entering the game. Something has to catch it and stop the roller from auto resetting upon reaching the desired stats.

Or better yet, how can I make it so the roller doesn't auto accept desired stats, and instead once it generates good stats it pauses and I have to manually accept them? That would solve the problem entirely if it didn't auto accept and would simply pause for examination and manual acceptance.

just remove the y or yes
