Colouring variables
|
Okay, so I have a system set up in my MUD where I target a creature, then I automatically hit at that creature.
This is done by sending the name of the creature into a variable, @target. So, I decided to make life easier for myself by simply colouring that variable red using a #CW trigger, so I'd be able to identify what it was that I was targetting.
Except, this has caused a problem. Say I target... 'rat', this makes EVERYTHING with the three letters 'rat' in it appear red in that section. Like... irate, Fratley, ratchet. VERY irritating.
Of course, the same thing happens no matter what I target, as long as the letter appear in the order... Is there any way to tell zMud to ONLY colour the target rather than EVERYTHING with those letters in it? Like... only colour the full word instead of partial words etc? |
