#LOOP
|
Trying to figure out the #LOOP command...
I have a book with 150 pages. I am able to use a command -> book copy page <X> to <randomplayer>, which would copy page X to randomplayer's book.
(the book copy command is a builtin mud command)
What I would like to do is use the #loop command to copy all pages of my book to the other player similar to::
book copy page 1 to joe
book copy page 2 to joe
book copy page 3 to joe
...
book copy page 150 to joe
Also, I'd like an alias so i could type bc 10 20 joe which would result in output to the mud of:
book copy page 10 to joe
book copy page 11 to joe
...
book copy page 20 to joe
Many thanks! |

#alias bc {#loop %1,%2 {book copy page %i to %3}}
Usage:
bc 1 150 joe
bc 10 20 joe
bc 50 100 joe
Bear in mind that this will spam the commands all at once. If you want them to be stepped, this is one of the few times when adding a #wait command would be okay.
#alias bc {#loop %1,%2 {book copy page %i to %3;#wait 500}} |
