god i'm such a n00b *SOLVED again w00t*
|
i've got an interesting dilemma. this is my prompt:
<3640(H)3640 1938(V)1946 2464(M)2482 909 10am |10 0|94| [NESWDNeSeSwNw-Bastion] (Scrt|Excl)>
Where the variables i want in order are like this:
<hp(H)hpmax mv(V)mvmax mn(M)mnmax etl time |ttq tqe|qp| [exits-area] (opponent|health)>
i want to figure out how to make this into a trigger pattern so that i may get the variables so i can design myself a much fancier version of my prompt. How can i make the mud realize this and capture it right? |

that's the plan anyways, i just clicked submit early when i meant to preview, but it should be all there now. i just need the syntax to get that upper prompt to cause my trigger to hit and take those variables

~<(%d)~(H~)(%d) (%d)~(V~)(%d) (%d)~(M~)(%d) (%d) (%d{am|pm}) ~|(%d) (%d)~|(%d)~| ~[([NESWDUewsn])-(*)~] ~(~(*)|(*)~)
That's your pattern. I figure you would want to mess around with the info (fancier prompt and all), so I'll leave the assignment to variables for you. |

Thanks Matt, that wasn't exactly it, you'd made a little mistake with a ~ placement, but once i figured out what that was, problem solved.

Hrm, now i've got another question. Is there someway to setup so that no matter the size of the variable, the entire line will stay a certain width?
example:
| Code: |
| Health: 123/123 Body: 123/123 Mind: 123/123 |
| Health: 12345/12345 Body: 12345/12345 Mind: 12345/12345 |
|
had to use the code block to ensure that it didn't drop any spaces :P |

%format allows you to set field widths.

I've got a new issue with this trigger pattern. I've set up the trigger to draw the information straight into variables, the problem with this is that when i try to get the &[NESWUDewsn]exits to work the test says it's looking for "abc 123 xyzNESWUDewsnexits" and the help i found on capturing straight to variables said using a range like this should work. another thing is when it gets the the final part (the (Scrt|Excl)) when capturing straight into a variable it decides that it MUST have the (Scrt| part, it can't just be (|Excl) when not putting the information directly into variables, it would work the latter way. What am I doing wrong?
[edit] I replaced the &enemy with &%*enemy and now it works for that part, but still can't get the damned exits one to work right.
[re-edit] i took out the range and just used &exits, problem solved. |
