I'm trying to get zMud to execute a set of commands only after a slowwalk path is completed. I've tried:
#SLOW walkpath
get X

But this doesn't work, and zMud executes get X during the path. In the place of get X, I've tried #IF (%inwalk=0) {get X}, which doesn't seem to work either, but I'm not sure if I'm using that wrongly.

Any advice from any of the experts out there?

Thanks!

I am pretty new to this, so this is probably a bad way to do it, but if you know the set time needed to walk the path, couldn't you create a one time alarm with the time needed, and have it execute "get x" or whatever when done?

The problem is that along the path, I pause and resume to fight, cast spells, etc. So the time taken each time I go through the path is uncertain.

Thanks for replying though, Muzzle :)

Using %destroom(), you can probably set up a zmud expression trigger for this. %destroom() returns the room ID (which means it has to be mapped already) or a -1 if the room has been entered already.

I'm not too familar with it, but the syntax would look something like this:

#trigger (%destroom() >= 0) {stuff you want to do}.

If you pause before reaching it, you may need to set up your own %destroom() wrapper so that the original destination is saved. I'm not sure if ZMud changes anything status-wise regarding speedwalking or destination when you are paused or stopped.

Thanks MattLofton!

Is there a way to do this if the map is not open? I ask because this path is part of a script, which covers different areas and requires portaling from area to area.

Use the special alias "onwalkend". This alias is automatically executed when a walk ends. If you have a number of different things you want to do at certain destinations then you will want to use a variable or 2 so that you are not always recreating the alias.

I'll try that out. Thanks Vijilante!
