Script help
|
I have a trigger that will capture all says that occur when I can see them. Here is the trigger
| Code: |
#TRIGGER {You say: } {
:CHANNEL:#SAYPROMPT {%time( hh:nn)}
#CAP CHANNEL
#GAG
}
|
But sometimes it a say can be multiple lines of text like this
quote:
You say: This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test.
This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test.
This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test.
see how it is indented?
But I can't seem to figure out how to get it to capture the rest of the say?
As it works now this is what goes in the CHANNEL window:
quote:
17:04You say: This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test.
And this goes into the main mud window:
quote:
This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test.
This is a Test. This is a Test. This is a Test.
I'll be very very very happy if anyone is able to help :)

some muds let you tweak to column width of the output the send you (essentially their own way to word wrap, eg. COLS) you want zmud to candle the wordwrapping to do this the easy way... ask one of the coders if there is a command for this and set it to the largest number possible, then your trigger will work.
if that doesnt do it you will need a #case statement |

If your say's are followed by a blank line, the following will work:
#TRIGGER SayCap {You say:} {}
#COND {*} {#if (%null(%line)=1) {#state SayCap 0} {:CHANNEL:#SAYPROMPT {%time( hh:nn)};#CAP CHANNEL;#GAG}} {ReParse}
#COND {*} {#state SayCap 1} {ReParse} |

That won't work.... as it will loop over and over again and finally I'll have to close zMUD manually.

Does it not work because you don't have a blank line after your says or for another reason?

It doesn't give a blank line... it indents the next line of text.

There's really only one way of handling multi-line operations.
1. Identify the beginning and the end.
2. Make a trigger using the beginning pattern to act on the first line and enable the other triggers.
3. Make a normally disabled trigger to match and act on every line until you come to the end.
4. Make a trigger to match the ending pattern and disable the second trigger.
Whether you use separate triggers, or just one multi-class trigger, or variables and #IFs, or some other method, the principle remains the same:
Start at the beginning, carry on until the end, and then stop.
You've identified the beginning pattern. Now, figure out how to identify the end of the text you want to capture.
This may work. If not, you've already been given several ideas which should be more than enough to give you a good start on finding your own method.
#TR capture {You say: } {:CHANNEL:#SAYP {%time( hh:nn)};#CAP CHANNEL;#GAG}
#COND {(*)} {#IF %begins( "%1", " ") {#CAP CHANNEL;#GAG} {#STATE capture 0}} {Looplines|Param=9} |
