temporary triggers
|
Do temporary triggers support wildcards? If so, I can't get mines to work. Any ideas?
| Code: |
#TRIGGER {A beam of prismatic light suddenly shoots into the room.} {
panic
#echo %ansi( blink)**eep eep, a prism!**
x
#TEMP {You see exits leading (%w)} {%1}
} |
Whenever I do that, it will return something like this:
| Quote: |

panic
**eep eep, a prism!**
x
3975h, 3300m ex-
You run around madly, flapping your arms in a blind panic.
3975h, 3300m ex-
You see exits leading north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west,and northwest.
3975h, 3300m ex-3975
Clarification is in order. |
X returns the possible exits, but for some reason, the wildcard in the temporary trigger returns my current health. Any idea how to get this to work? |

Try making that %1 instead %%1 so it won't be interpreted during trigger creation, but only at trigger execution.

Though logically, %1 should never in any instance of that trigger being run be having the hp in value. Seems to me as a weird bug.
I hope zugg has read this post =) |

I was wondering about that too. Since there's no patterns in the original trigger {A beam of prismatic light suddenly shoots into the room.} zMUD probably is just passing into %1 some random thing, maybe whatever was in %1 the last time something assigned something to it (like some other unrelated trigger, in this case probably the one on his prompt that drives his auto-sipper). But I'm not motivated enough to actually duplicate it experimentally.
