Script that writes a trigger using a variable to define the trigger name
|
Hi. I am trying to write a script that writes triggers for me based on certain actions I take in game. The challenge is that the script must name the triggers from values in a variable and assign the action from variable value. For example:
#TR {@Item} {#echo @Spell}
The goal is to create a trigger for special Items that I see in game that echoes certain traits like the spells a scroll casts. I'm sure I'm missing something easy to expand the variable. There may be another way to do this with a database variable, but I couldn't for the life of me figure that one out either. |

Assuming that @item is a list of items, you need an extra set of braces to expand it:
#TR {{@Item}} {#echo @Spell} |

Currently, I am trying to make a trigger from each new items added to a database. Before I pass the item to the database, I store details in variables. @Item holds the name of a single item and @Spell holds details about any spells it can cast. Example:
Item = Purple staff
Spell = Cure light wounds
I want to create a #yesno that will create a trigger looking for Purple staff and echo (cure light wounds) |

You will likely need to cobble your question string together with %concat if you want to reference the variables in the question.
Show me your #YESNO command if it is failing; I can't troubleshoot code that isn't there. |

Forgive me as this will likely be the least elegant script you have ever seen. My database is effective for storing details about items that I identify. The challenge is in the if statement with the space above and below. That is where I am trying to automate the generation of a trigger. The goal is to create triggers that creates visual tags to remind me about the abilities on certain items, so I can find them easier in containers and storage. If I can get those variables to unpack into the trigger, I can deploy the trigger creation script in many ways. I'll take any other feedback as well about this script. I love the logic piece of writing scripts, but have no formal training.

you want this:
#YESNO "Do you want to create reminder text for this item?" {#EXEC %concat("#TRIGGER {", @ItemName, "} {#ECHO ", @Spells, "} {SpellItems}")} |
