%nextdir problems
|
Hello
I'm running zMud 7.21
I use the map in fastwalk as my mud doesn't handle the other walk modes well at all.
I have a number of mobs that block the exits from a room unless they're dead, so I use the 'pause when speedwalking' option and a walkscript to check if they're there and kill them. This seems to work fine until I use the %nextdir.
For example
I have a room with exits 'e' and 'w'. The mob blocks you if you try to move 'w' but not if you come from the other way and go 'e'.
For testing I have this simple script:
| Code: |
| #if ( %nextdir = "w" ) { say stop and kill} { say carry on } |
When I speedwalk through the room, it pauses but does nothing, so I simplify it to:
| Code: |
| #if ( %nextdir = "w" ) { say stop and kill } |
Still nothing. So I add in
| Code: |
say %nextdir
#if ( %nextdir = "w") { say stop and kill } |
and this walks to the room and preforms the 'say' which send "say w". So why is the #IF statement not kicking in?
TIA
Circuit

I copied your code, changed the dir from west to south and tested it... and it worked without any changes o.O However, I don't actually manage to say the direction, 'say %nextdir' comes up as say only.

Were you #WALKing through the room?
Good that it worked for you, thought I was going mad, at least now I'm only slightly mad. |

I was speedwalking in slow mode. Where did you place this code? I put it under Room script for it to work.

Tested putting it under walkscript, then it fired after I put in the dir for the room, but before I reached it.

Well it's still acting very oddly for me. Very very oddly. If retyped it all in, tested more and got nothing, copied the code back from the top of here (which was exactly the same as what I'd typed) and got the following results
| Code: |
say %nextdir
#if ( %nextdir = "w" ) { say stop and kill} { say carry on }
|
results:
#walk testroom
A room (w and e)
> w
say w
say carry on
Test room (w and e)
> You say: w
> You say: carry on
Where surely it should have said 'stop and kill' rather than 'carry on'

Oh, again, where did you place this code? Room script, walk script or just a trigger?
