No one will help you just with that,you must read some on the forums,search for similar info,and make concrete questions here,i think its just you cant ask someone else make a robot for a person to whom he doesnt know and in which mud he doesnt play.

Im trying to do same with my mud,but i ask such questions as

or

thoose are problems i get WHILE building the robot,not just asking for it,and letting someone else do that for me.

You will have to work a bit ;)

I don't know your mud, but how about if you set a trigger to match a list of items, and then, from that it will slow-walk you to a set location?

It's probably not the best method programming wise, but that should be fairly simple.

Actually, Droid, while there is (I think) a Zuggsoft policy of trying to avoid helping people do things that are clearly against mud policy (ie, writing bots for people who play muds that ban bots), the majority of the reason why folk do not try helping someone who posts the equivalent of "I want to write a bot, but don't know how." is because of very high specificity of that bot to the MUD. We need, at minimum, a very clear idea of what you want to accomplish and enough hard output examples of actual mud output. Failure to do this will usually result in no help, "nudging" (what I call the somewhat sarcastic/silly replies meant to mold others into better posters), or a complete script given that works for THEIR mud and not (necessarily) yours.
