What I am wanting to do is summon up to 50 of a certain mob.

Now I know it would be extremly easy to do an alias with
summon 1.<mob>; summon 2.<mob>

But what I am trying to do is a form of error checking at the same time.

So what I have done is set up triggers for the arrival of that mob via summon, to invrement variable @anoi.

What I have so far

Alias - summonanoi : c 'summon' <@anoi>.anoi
trigger - An anointed : #math anoi (@anoi+1)

What I would like is for me to be able to type summonanoi, and it loop through until @anoi reaches 50. Can you guys help of suggest a command to look at for doing this??

Thanks

Matt

Another thing I forgot to mention is that if a summon fails (You lost your concentration) I would it to pick that up. Almost as if a whole "program" was running that watched for just this part, but I really dont understand how to do this.

I appreciate your help guys.

Try this:

#alias summonanoi {#var anoi {1};#var summonvictim {%1};c 'summon' <@anoi>.<@summonvictim>;#T+ resummon}
#trigger {An anointed} {#IF (@anoi<50) {#add anoi {1};c 'summon' <@anoi>.<@summonvictim>} {#T- resummon}} resummon
#trigger {{You sizzle with energy, but then you forget the thing you wanted to cast!|Impossible, your concentration left you, as a fly crawled in your ear!|Blue sparks fly from your fingers, hitting you in the face! ~*Ouch~*|Your mind is drifting away as you start uttering the words!|Your brain vanishes, as you try to cast!| Wait a little bit, maybe it reappears.|Segmentation violation, mana dumped.|A small blue light irritates you. Your concentration is gone!|Someone snaps his fingers in front of you, and you lose your concentration!|You can't concentrate as a small frog jumps around you, croaking annoying!|You lost your concentration! Stupid thing, silly git.|You make the heaven green, but you feel that's not the thing you wanted to do!|As you start to concentrate, Someone tickles you - HE HE HE !|Concentration is not your strongest side. It leaves you NOW!|As you start to concentrate, a small lightning hits you! ~*Ouch~*|You make your thoughts disappear! What did you want to cast?|Mother Mary comes to you, speaking words of wisdom: 'Let it be!'|A pink elephant appears in front of you, that's confusing!}} {c 'summon' <@anoi>.<@summonvictim>} resummon

In that last trigger, they are the failed-spell messages from my particular mud. If they are different in your MuD, you'll need to create your own list of failed spell messages.
To use: type summonanoi <mob to summon>
Enjoy, Danlo
