Ok, I have made, a find wizard. Well the game a play. many people ask me for finds.

I will show the triggers.

trigger 1: where someone asks for a find.

Pattern: ^(%w) tells you: find (%w)
Value:
#T+ autofinding
#VARIABLE wfind %1
#VARIABLE afind %2

Ok. now, wfind is: wanted find. and the afind is for the autofind.

Now, there can be 4 diffrent triggers for the find.

1, if succeded. and 3 others.

If succeeded it will show me 2 lines. Got trigger on the first line only:
Someone is in a cold mist.
Someone is in the room: space.

Now, i got the trigger like this:

pattern: @afind is in %1
VALUE: #VARIABLE rfinds "%1"
#VARIABLE okfind YES

Now, the person, might not be online, I might fail, and I might not have enough endurance points.

So for all three triggers I got the same value:
#VARIABLE okfind NO

Ok, now that part is clear. Now, here is where it messes up.

I have an alias. to just type: "fi"

So, pattern: fi, value:
find @afind
#WAIT 3000
#IF (@okfind=NO) {tell @wfind %proper( @afind) is not online, or the person does not exsist.} {#ABORT}
#IF (@okfind=YES) {tell @wfind %proper( @afind) is at @rfinds, Standing in a Room named @roomfs.}{#ABORT}

What's the problem? well, it never fires telling what's wrong.

Another thing is, that, I would like to have a limit for the people asking for finds. so. if example Corleidum asks for a find, it should add 1 to the find variable. Hmm, let me explain, somethin glike this..

I want it to auto add the name of the person asking for the find.
something like: whoeverFCount
the default value should be 3.
and when I make a find, it should be 2. and 1. then 0.
When it reaches 0, I want to tell them sorry, your find limit ran out.

Something like that, hope anyone understands, thanks

#IF (@okfind="NO") {tell @wfind %proper( @afind) is not online, or the person does not exsist.} {#ABORT}
#IF (@okfind="YES") {tell @wfind %proper( @afind) is at @rfinds, Standing in a Room named @roomfs.}{#ABORT}

Since its not a number, you have to quote what you are trying to match.

Hope that helps.

Great thanks! What about the fact that I would like it to count how many times each user has asked for finds..?

Instead of counting down, count up. If you use a record variable, you'll only need one which will reduce the clutter in your variable list considerably.

#IF (%db( @Fcount, @wfind)) {#ADDK Fcount @wfind %eval( 1 + %db( @Fcount, @wfind))} {#ADDK Fcount @wfind 1}
#IF (%db( @Fcount, @wfind) < 4)) {fi} {tell @wfind sorry, your find limit ran out}
