Using %pathfrom
|
I'd like to have a series of commands completed one after the other. If I use #slow <path> it will begin executing the path and then advance to the next command. If I enter the path with .<path> it behaves properly by not advancing until it has completed the path. I can get the path with %pathfrom, but if I try to do this:
%pathfrom(, <roomnum>)
It won't work. It tries to send the path string to the mud instead of interpriting it and executing it. So I need to figure out how to get it to execute it instead of trying to just evaluate and send to mud.
Also, does anyone know of a way to reverse the %roomid function to get a room number from a shortname instead of a shortname from a roomnumber like it does with %roomid? |

Try using #EXEC.

You use %mapquery to get roomkeys or roomnums from the shortname. The field to query on is IdName.
