Trigger - Caputre = HELP
 
HI!

So I have absolutely no experience in CMUD, and not really ZMUD either - but it works nicely with VISTA so I decided to give it a go. I am mostly having a problem figuring out how to make a Communication window - one that will capture OOC / GOSSIP / SAY / TELL / ECT and route them to that one specific window so they won't be lost.

Now I tried the trigger it said in the tutorials....no go. I also tried making a TELL window, No Go.


<1046hp 856m 1042mv> #WIN tell
That command doesn't exist type help for a list of valid commands.

<1046hp 856m 1042mv>

Obviously I have no idea what I am doing.... but could someone more experience point me in the right direction? Thanks!!


Oh, and I am running CMUD 3.08 if that makes a difference.

It looks like that message is coming from the mud, rather than from Cmud, which probably means you've accidentally turned off parsing on the command line. At the bottom of your Cmud window, you should see some icons, including one that looks like a PC and monitor. If there is a red X across it, click that icon to turn parsing back on.

Hey.

Okay. I got it to work....

now does anyone know an easy way to Capture and send TELLS/GOSSIP/SAYS/OOC to one window, instead of having a bunch?

You would need to give us an example of the MUD output that you want to capture. There are thousands of MUDs out there and these triggers are often quite different between them.

If you tell us the name of the MUD that you play someone else who plays it may be able to post triggers that they already have made.

I use a few triggers for capturing Communication

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
  <trigger priority="2630" copy="yes">
    <pattern>(%w) {say|says|osays|osay|gossips|gossip}</pattern>
    <value>#CAPTURE Comms</value>
  </trigger>
</cmud>


hmm i never asked or noticed if that's pastable into the command line directly

but I think if you just use
Code:

#TRIGGER (%w) {say|says|osays|osay|gossips|gossip} {#CAPTURE Comms}


with your personal tweaks it should work, it's a little crude because it can double capture if theres "say|says|osays|osay|gossips|gossip"
in the lines after the first say osays gossip etc.

the #WIN command just makes a new window for each time your trigger fires.

Maybe someone can answer if theres a better way to export Cmud settings into a text file or something like the old Zmud

Hope this Helps
