ok I have just one question, I have 2 characters on the same mud, how do I create new triggers, aliases etc. for each on the same mud? I have tried to create a new character, but the triggers and aliases remain the same in both characters on the same mud, Anyones help on this matter would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

You need to not only create a new character in the mud, but also in the zmud character window if you want them to be seperate settings.

On a side note, you can get by with running multiple characters from the same settings... just need to make aliases to set up different variables for each character.

i.e.

#ALIAS playername1 {storage = bag
drink = glass
playername_classes = Thief|Mage
character = Player1
quit
#CON
}

#ALIAS playername2 {storage = backpack
drink = jug
playername_classes = Cleric
character = Player1
quit
#CON
}

assuming the same passwords you can then just set some triggers to login either...

#CLASS Autolog
#TRIGGER {^What be thy name adventurer~?:$} {@character}
#TRIGGER {^Password~?:$} {#pw;#CR;#Class Autolog 0)
#CLASS 0

then if you type "playername1" it will setup variables you use in aliases, quit which character you are on, and reconnect with the new settings.

When you first start zmud and connect to the mud, it will connect to the last player connected, unless you set defaut values for all the variables.

Select the new character icon in the main zMUD start screen and then click the Edit button. Then go to the Files tab and you can change the name of the primary settings file to something else if you don't want it to share the same settings file as your original character.
