Identical patterns, not so identical results |
The clan output on the mud I play is the same. So I have a trigger. There are 13 active clans, but only 10 of them will capture. I have stared at the ones that will, and the ones that won't and I see no differences. I was wondering if my trigger might have flaws in it, or if my zmud is posessed.
Clan Name: Oracle Leader: Demia Coleader: Gwinterra War: Defft/Alyson
Clan Name: Mord'Sith Leader: Trak Coleader: War: Rothgar/Xxanth
Clan Oracle will NOT work, and clan Mord'Sith WILL. Here is the trigger I am using:
Clan Name: &cname Leader: &cleader Coleader: &cco War: &cwar
I do not know what could cause it. There are other clans which have leader/co/warlords that capture fine. Granted, I found a work around for them. To get around Oracle I did this:
Clan Name: Oracle Leader: &cleader Coleader: &cco War: &cwar
I could do that for every single individual clan, but it would be easier with a trigger that would grab them all...any suggestions?

Dunno if it's a bug or operator error, but there seems to be an issue with using the reference character in a trigger (&). I'm sure that using a standard wildcard or other special symbol will fix the problem nicely.
#trigger {^Clan Name: (%x) Leader: (%x) Coleader: (%x) War: (*)} {}
As far as clan names go, you could replace that (%x) with ({Oracle|Mord'Sith|etc}) to further narrow the trigger, though a list like that would have to be updated manually.

what are you trying to do with the trigger you never specified at all, it would be easier to fix if someone knew what you were trying to do with it.
#trigger {^Clan Name: (*) Leader: (*) Coleader: (*) War: (*)} {do something to %1, do something to %2, do something to %3, do something to %4}
%1 will be the clan name, 2 will be the leader, etc...

Capture the name, leader, coleader, warlords, then store it in another window inside the appropriate xml tags...ive done something similar but the capture is the problem I was having. I tried using like * before, but if I did #WINDOW CAPTURE %1 it wouldnt show up...would only show up if I used like &chname and @chname for the window capture part.
once again, not currently at home but I will give it a whirl when I arrive there
