Hello,

I have been struggling to code what is likely something very simple that I am just inept at doing! So I need some help.

I want to be able to probe a flower pot.. use the inventory list to identify the items and pull them out by their number, not their name.. and then drop and price them.

Here is the output:

A clay flowerpot is holding:
"wisp139061" a thorny evening wisp

So from that I would like to:

get 139061 from pot
drop 139061
price 139061 100

Any help?

Thank you.

It isn't too hard, but I've been doing this a while, here's some advice for everyone: Don't give up, the help files are very handy....Anyway here goes:

#trigger {"(%w)(%d)" %3} {get %2 from pot;drop %2;price %2 100}

If you want to make the 100 variable, just make an alias to set it, something like

#alias {money} {#var value %1}

then instead of 100 in the trigger use: @value

Answer your question?

--Note: This will get, drop, and price everything that matches that string. So if you want to do only specific items, make a list of them.
Example:

#additem itemlist wisp
#additem itemlist sword

Then your trigger should be something like:

#trigger {"(%w)(%d)" %3} {#forall @itemlist {#IF (%1 = %i) {get %2 from pot;drop %2;price %2 100}}

--Basically, everytime it comes across a "word1590" string, string, it will run thru the list of words you put into it, and if the word matches the wordlist, it will then execute the get/drop/price, otherwise it does nothing... I Assume this is what you were meaning with your question.

That worked perfectly and now gives me some education as well.

Thank you for taking the time to help.

Look up %ismember and use that in place of #forall it will be more effecient.

Taz is correct, I actually had written the second script a different way, before I edited my post and deleted some stuff, so %ismember is a better way in this particular case, but in my original post it was more useful to use forall. You always forget somethings, sometimes, I think
