I have a script that takes a multi-line trigger and adds the result to a variable, basically each hit is worth points, and the limb breaks at 7 points, 2 points for a kick, 1 for a punch

You can hit right arm | leg or left arm | leg. Once i hit 7 I want it to reset to 0, (of course, i might hit 8, if the count is 6 and a kick hits.) But the following doesn't seem to clear the VAR..

Anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

#CLASS {Limb Tracking}
#TRIGGER {^You let fly at @p with a snap kick.}
#COND {^You connect to the (*)!} {
#add %replace(%1," ") 2
#IF (@%replace(%1," ")=>7) {#var %replace(%1," ") 0}
}
#TRIGGER {^You ball up one fist and hammerfist @p.}
#COND {^You connect to the (*)!} {
#add %replace(%1," ") 1
#IF (@%replace(%1," ")=>7) {#var %replace(%1," ") 0}
}
#TRIGGER {^You form a spear hand and stab out towards @p.}
#COND {^You connect to the (*)!} {
#add %replace(%1," ") 1
#IF (@%replace(%1," ")=>7) {#var %replace(%1," ") 0}
}
#CLASS 0

Thanks!

This is just a stab in the dark, but perhaps it's the %replace() in your #IF command condition. You may need to surround it in curly braces for ZMud to recognize that it's the variable you want to check.

prolly wrong, but not able to test now:

#IF (@(%replace(%1," "))=>7) {#var %replace(%1," ") 0}

Probably some odd order of comparaison?

#add %replace(%1," ") 2;#IF ([@{%replace(%1," ")} >= 7]) {#var %replace(%1," ") 0}

Try that maybe?

Oh, crap, I can't believe I totally missed that. Your less than or equal to operator was backwards. >= instead of =>. The operator was probably defaulting to =, and since the result of the replace would never equal >7 it was always evaluating to zero. Without a false code-block to execute, the script was always appearing to do nothing at that point.
