Ok guys, ya gotta help me...I have spent 7 hours going through the General forum and the completed scripting forum and I cant find anything but :window relating to this.
Heres the problem...I have a circlemud based MUD and have great and awsome area files, but the code it quite unstable, so I decided to go with a ROM code....well the code is stable and everything, but I cant use my circlemud areas...crap...Well, people who know circlemud and ROM mud know that in circlemud there are 5 different files... .shp .wld .mob .zon and .obj ROM has only one and it is .are So there is no way of getting a zone converter to do this (If you could then someone would have to be about as intelligent as Einstein) Anyway... Heres what I need to do...I need to copy the text from the OLC output and go to the second window, and open OLC and paste it there....Keep in mind I am wanting to do the whole world, Now heres something what it would look like
-- Room number : [12004] Room zone: [12]
1) Name : The Board Room of the Immortals
2) Description :
This large room is well decorated, and lit from above by a soft magical
glow of no particular origin. Scattered around the room are comfortable
chairs and piles of furs of various dimensions, and in the very middle there
is a huge oaken table that shimmers in an odd manner. A large picture window
looks down over the whole world, showing the exploits of the many intrepid
mortals. A spiral staircase leads down to another part of this room. There
is a doorway to the temple observatory to the west.

(This shows there is a door, and whether it defaults opened or closed)
north flags door (open or closed)

(This is the keyword to open the door)

(This is the key to unlock the door)

(These are the room flags dark/light/no_mob/etc)

(These are the sector flags of the room, mountains, city, etc)
sector (sector type)

Ok, I think thats about it...Please tell me if I missed something
Also, I want to loop this from like room 3000 to 3099
Thanks, surely someone out there can help me...sorry about being so
long but it is VERY complicated

This can be done but it would take an extreme amount of time
to script, test read and test write. I wrote one once for a LPC mud and
I remember much pain

There must be a Circle->ROM converter on the net by now?! Can't believe I can't
google one up in under 5 minutes. *frown*

Perhaps try:
You can subscribe to the mailing list by sending your subscription request to 'rom-request@rom.org'.

//

That being said, figuratively what I would do is make a database that reflected
the format for your new ROM based code. I'd figure out how the CircleMUD code
matched the ROM fields and trigger/read it all in accordingly. Very similar concept
as the equipment databases in the Finished Script Forum.

Then you would have a script to publish your database into the ROM OLC.

Ok...I dont know how to make a database for one, and I dont know how to make a program to do this for me.....what would help me is to figure out the basic concept of it...If you can take say like the first example at the top...from olc output 1 (the circlemud code) and make it as if it were just transferring it to the same type of OLC...that would be awsome help, but keep in mine I want to do this a zone at a time so I wanna be able to loop it from vnum 3000 to 3099

Step 2. Write triggers to enter the desired information into a record-variable.

#CLASS CircleToROM disable;#T- CircleToROM
#TR {-- Room number : ~[(%d)~] Room zone} {#VAR {NewRoom} {%null};#ADDKEY {NewRoom} {Room} {%1}}
#TR {1~) Name : (*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {Name} {%1}}
#TR Description {2~) Description : (*)} {ADDK {NewRoom} {Desc} {%1}}
#COND {(*)} {#IF %begins( {%1}, "3)") {#STATE Description 0} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {Desc} {@NewRoom.Desc %1}}} {LoopLines|Param=99}
#TR {3~) Room flags : (%x)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {Flags} {%1}}
#TR {4~) Sector type : (*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {Sector} {%1}}
#TR {5~) Exit north : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NRoom} {%1}}
#TR {6~) Exit east : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {ERoom} {%1}}
#TR {7~) Exit south : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {sRoom} {%1}}
#TR {8~) Exit west : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {WRoom} {%1}}
#TR {9~) Exit up : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {URoom} {%1};#MESSAGE You need to add UP/DOWN fields to the database}
#TR {A~) Exit down : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {DRoom} {%1}}
#TR {Q~) Quit} {#T- CircleToROM;#T+ NCircle;5}
#CLASS NCircle disable;#T- NCircle
#TR {2~) Description :(*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NDesc} {%1}}
#TR {3~) Door name :(*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NName} {%1}}
#TR {4~) Key : (%d)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NKey} {%1}}
#TR {5~) Door flags :(*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NFlags} {%1}
#TR {6~) Purge exit} {#T- NCircle;#T+ ECircle;0;6}
#CLASS ECircle disable;#T- ECircle
Repeat the above class (with appropriate changes) for east, south, west, up, down
Final trigger for DCircle class
#TR {6~) Purge exit} {#T- DCircle;#NEW All {@NewRoom}}

You'll have to figure out Extra Descriptions for yourself. Also, since I'm not familiar with OLC, you'll have to do your own alias or loop command to run it.

Sorry for the long break, I was getting a DNS error for zuggsoft.com so I went and did other things.

Step 3. Write an alias (or several) to retrieve the information from the database and send it to the "new" OLC.

#AL Addroom {create %1;#DBGET %item( %query( &Room = %1), 1);name &Name;desc &Desc;~@;format;north room &NRoom;east room &ERoom;south room &SRoom;west room &WRoom;north desc &NDesc;east desc &EDesc;south desc &SDesc;west desc &WDesc;north flags &NFlags;east flags &EFlags;south flags &SFlags;west flags &WFlags;north door &NDoor;east door &EDoor;south door &SDoor;west door &WDoor;north key &NKey;east key &EKey;south key &SKey;west key &WKey}

Don't forget to add Up/Down if needed.

Ok I done the first step and made the database, now on the second step...it freezes my zmud client and makes alot of these..

I am using zMUD 5.55 , if I need to I can upgrade, but I think this version should work fine...Anyway, hopefully I receive word pretty soon

Newbie Joined: 02 Mar 2003 Posts: 9 Location: USA

Its one of these 2 lines that crashes my client
#TR {1~) Name : (*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {Name} {%1}}
#TR Description {2~) Description : (*)} {ADDK {NewRoom} {Desc} {%1}}

MASTER Joined: 28 Nov 2000 Posts: 4817 Location: USA

There's nothing wrong with either of those lines. Both commands (#TRIGGER and #ADDKEY) are valid in v5.55. Perhaps you've changed something (such as special character settings)? You might need to put the trigger ID in double quotes (or it might not be valid in 5.55).
#TR "Description" {2~) Description : (*)} {ADDK {NewRoom} {Desc} {%1}}

If you aren't using the latest public version, you should mention it in the first post. The #COND command is NOT valid in 5.55 (or even 6.16), so the script WILL NOT work.

These were just suggestions. If they don't work for you, they should at least give you a good starting point for writing your own triggers.

Ok....I downloaded the new zMUD and installed it...version 6.40 I think...>Well, I dont get that massive * problem and my zMUD dont crash...but it goes to #5 and stops...so I checked the triggers out...and I found some interesting stuff...Here it is

---------------------------------------------

#TR {-- Room number : ~[(%d)~] Room zone} {#VAR {NewRoom} {%null};#ADDKEY {NewRoom} {Room} {%1}}

Also...A few other questions I had...Does it matter what I name the database?
Does it batter about spacing? Like :
#TR {5~) Exit north : (%n)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NRoom} {%1}}
But on the mud, it actually shows it being
Exit north :

Also, I am not worried about the ACTIONS menu

Well, I think thats about everything you need to answer all my questions

MASTER Joined: 28 Nov 2000 Posts: 4817 Location: USA

#TR {-- Room number : ~[(%d)~] Room zone} {#VAR {NewRoom} {%null};#ADDKEY {NewRoom} {Room} {%1}}

#VAR {NewRoom} {%null};#ADDKEY {NewRoom} {Room} {%1}
^ identifier expected
You can remove the {} around the variable name if you want. This isn't an error, it's just different from what the syntax checker expects. I seldom use the editor for writing scripts so I don't notice these.
#TR {-- Room number : ~[(%d)~] Room zone} {#VAR NewRoom {%null};#ADDKEY {NewRoom} {Room} {%1}}

#TR {5~) Door flags :(*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NFlags} {%1}

{#ADDK
^ syntax error
This is a typo. You left off the last }. I make a lot of these, but this one's yours. I checked my post and it's correct.
#TR {5~) Door flags :(*)} {#ADDK {NewRoom} {NFlags} {%1}}

Does it matter what I name the database?
No. Keep in mind that zMUD uses the first two letters of the database name to identify it. It would be a good idea to use at least two characters for the name. It would also be a good idea to make sure those two letters are different from any other database you might have.

Does it batter about spacing?
YES. The spacing MUST match the actual spacing used by the MUD. If necessary, you can use the %s wildcard to match any amount of white space.

I think that's all your questions. Let us know how things work.

GAWD I'M GETTING SO MAD!!!!!!!!
Ok...Heres the deal now...It aint copying....it will only copy a few things for me...anything with text in it...forget it...it wont touch it...The only things it will touch are the key number and the exit numbers....and reguardless what number they are...it logs them as 0 in the database...Avery other line is just blank...So...What do we do now :)

NewRoom is the name of the record-variable which is used to store all the information from the triggers. Once all the information has been stored, the #NEW command uses this variable (@NewRoom) to create the new record in the database.

You can look at the variable in the editor or by typing #VAR NewRoom. It appears the multi-line description trigger (the one with #COND) needs some work. I'll try to come up with something else, but it may take awhile. For now, just disable that trigger (double-click the green circle in the editor so it turns grey) so you can see if the others work.
