#AddItem & clearing alias bugs?
|
I resently found a nice "bug".
I get this kind of feed from mud
| Code: |
,--------------------------------------------------------------------.
| Guild name | Command | Level | Max |
|====================================================================|
| The Conjurers | conjurer | 18 | 25 |
| Denizens of the Underdark | denizens | 5 | 5 |
| Fight Club | fc+ | 0 | 8 |
| Magical background | magical | 10 | 10 |
| Metal Warriors of the World | metal+ | 0 | 1 |
| The Association of Mystical Navigators | navigator | 5 | 5 |
| Default long name | nightlife+ | 0 | 1 |
| The Psionicists | psionicist | 35 | 35 |
| Default long name | turku+ | 0 | 1 |
`--------------------------------------------------------------------' |
Now, i have a nice trigger that executes
| Code: |
| #Variable guilds "" |
when it finds
| Code: |
| ^| Guild name %s | %s Command | Level | Max | |
from input.
So now i (should) have empty variable called guilds where my trigger
| Code: |
^\| (.*)\s+\|\s+([\+a-z]+) \|\s+(\d+) \|\s+(\d+) \|
#AddItem Guilds %2 |
should store all the guild names that i have.
But, alas, i get a empty text variable for time to time.
Ideas where this might come? |

Does it sometimes work correctly?
My guess is that the second trigger is sometimes not firing for some reason. Could be that the format sent by the MUD is slightly different sometimes. Like some extra or missing spaces, for example. |

According to all the information you posted %2 would correlate to the "Command" column and not the "Guild name" column. Also you should get in the practice of using proper delimeters. In this case braces are correct:
#AddItem Guilds {%1}
CMud will do much to eliminate the stricter need for delimeters in certain situations, but it is still a good habit to have.
I can't see any reason for the Regex to fail to match, although there have been some reported, and as yet unresolved possible bugs with white space matching. You might try using a fixed width pattern and then %trim your captured data. |

Maybe once for every ten times on average.

I actually found the bugging part.
The clearing triggers pattern should have been
^\| Guild name \s+ \| \s+ Command \| Level \| Max \|
I tested it with Echo's and suddenly the clearing trigger started to loop on itself so i suspected incorrect prel.
And so it was.
thanks for all the help

No.
I want the command stored so i can use it later. |
