Triggers and Variables
|
Hello I'm pretty sure it will be a silly mistake but I can't find it
I have a trigger and I want that trigger to modify a variable (actually I have several triggers that modify several variables but I'll just show one). I did some testing in an offline screen of other mud and worked fine, but when I imported it to the actual mud it doesn't work.
#CLASS {Healing|Variables|Cohosh}
#TRIGGER {and you feel sleepy.} {vcohosh=1}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {Healing|Variables|Kelp}
#TRIGGER {You lash out clumsily} {#add vkelp 1}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {Healing|Variables}
#VAR {vcohosh} {0}
#VAR {vkelp} {0}
#CLASS 0
I don't know why the variables are not being updated, not even if I enter the #ADD vkelp 1 or the vcohosh=1 in the command line manually. Any idea?
Thanks for your time |

It works fine for me.
Try something simpler to see if the problem is with all variables:
#VAR test 2
#SH @test
should show:
2
#ADD test 1
#SH @test
should show:
3
#TRIGGER {testing} {#VAR test 5}
#SH testing
#SH @test
should show:
testing
5
#TRIGGER {hello} {#ADD test 1}
#SH hello
#SH @test
should show:
hello
6
#UNVAR test
#CLASS {Test}
#VAR test 1
#CLASS 0
#SH @test
should show:
Variable test removed
1
#ADD test 1
#SH @test
should show:
2
#CLASS {Test|TestTrigs}
#TRIGGER {testing2} {#VAR test 5}
#CLASS 0
#SH testing2
#SH @test
should show:
testing2
5
#CLASS {Test|TestTrigs}
#TRIGGER {hello2} {#ADD test 1}
#CLASS 0
#SH hello2
#SH @test
should show:
hello2

You probably have other variables, with the same names, in another class and the variables in the other class are the ones being updated.
zMUD allows you to address most settings without specifying the full path. When two settings of the same type have the same name you need to specify the full path.
#CLASS {Healing|Variables|Cohosh}
#TRIGGER {and you feel sleepy.} {#VAR Healing/Variables/vcohosh 1}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {Healing|Variables|Kelp}
#TRIGGER {You lash out clumsily} {#ADD Healing/Variables/vkelp 1}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {Healing|Variables}
#VAR {Healing/Variables/vcohosh} {0}
#VAR {Healing/Variables/vkelp} {0}
#CLASS 0 |

I don't have other variables named in that way. I did the test and seems to be working fine. I just deleted the whole setting and started to import small parts to see if there is a specific class causing a conflict, apparently having 2 tiggers with the same pattern and different values was the cause. As soon as I deleted that class it started to work fine.
Thanks a lot for your time and advice |
