Follow trigger
|
I am trying to make a trigger to update my map when following.
this is the mud output:
You follow Jolly Green Giant, The Tall Guy west to A Forest
I tried to make the trigger as follows
You follow * (%t) to *
and the command
#MOVE %t
that didnt work and my pattern testing comes up with no match
anyone have a solution? |

A little testing will reveal that %t matches single-letter directions. Since your output is full words, use %w instead.
Pattern:
You follow * (%w) to
Command:
#MOVE %1 |

No, don't use Droid's example. Sorry, Droid but we discourage all use of %1..%n inside a trigger's pattern. I believe that this was initially supported for TinTin compatibility, but right now it is deprecated. Using that syntax inside a trigger's pattern is not technically correct and results might be unexpected.
