#IF and Text matching
|
so all i'm trying to do is match a word and do stuff with a #IF statement
here's what i thought would work but doesn't
Trigger:
| Code: |
| You spend (%d) gold to infuse (*) with ~- (*) ~- |
Value:
| Code: |
| #IF (%3 = "Alchemist's") {make} {infuse} |
prolly something really quick and easy for you Guru's :)
thanks for your time. |

I don't see a problem, so I'll have to assume your trigger simply isn't matching the line. One thing to check is that maybe %3 contains something that might interfere with the comparison. To fix that, surround it with double-quotes. Although it's not necessarily intuitive, the %1...%99 variables are filled in before the parser checks any code and thus the proper values get inserted into their proper places instead of using a literal %whatever.

Yeah, it's counter-intuitive and fixed in CMUD, but in zMUD, you have to do it pretty frequently.

Very weird. I've never had to do this in 9 years of using zMUD. LOL. Oh well, if it ever happens I now know at least. Cool.
