Hello, everyone.

I'm currently playing a MUD in which potions are refillable, and I'd like to be able to see how many sips I have left in my bottle without using inbuilt skills.

At refill, I'd like this number to get set to 100, and each time I sip health, a line under it to show "You have 99/98/97/etc sips left."

How would I do this?

Any help is appreciated.

#TR {refilling message} {numsips=100}
#TR {sipping message} {#ADD numsips -1;#SAY You have @numsips left}

Thanks!

Another thing, if you can help out...

Is there a way to colorize #say/#echo/#show output?

You can use %ansi(color)jksjfkljsdl or you can use <color colorname>djkjflsdjl</color>

I suggest reading the %ansi help for all your options. Now with <color> tags the syntax checker will bug out on it, but it works fine.

Did the color info in the help get cleaned up? %ansi()'s help entry seems centered around #COLOR or #CW, whichever is the one with the color chart and explanation of how the numbers work.

I don't know. I never use %ansi, that's why I suggested the help file. Prefer <color> much more, because you can use more color names.
