Zugg Software :: View topic - [Fixed] Mapper Issues with %inwalk %walkactive %destroom and onWalkEnd

Posted: Mon Apr 13, 2009 2:19 pm

Summary: onWalkEnd isn't firing at the end of a slow walk.

See the revised procedure below.

I'll take a look at the onWalkEnd event...that sounds like a bug. The other results are normal because of how Slow walks works. A Slow walk is basically treated as a bunch of single step speedwalks. That's why it's "slow" and can be interrupted at any time.

So the onWalkEnd event is the only mechanism that can tell you when the walk queue is empty?

I think %nextdir will also show you the next direction in the queue and will be empty when you are at the end. Haven't tried it in a while, but it's worth a shot.

That actually works great, I just have to take care of the timing to inquire only after I use #ok so that it is updated for the current movement.

Thanks for the idea!

In version 3.06, onWalkEnd is still broken.

I have an event with onWalkEnd and a print statement to show it executes. Doing a slow mode walk will not cause this to be executed.

The onWalkEnd bug is still on the bug list.

Tested in 3.10: onWalkEnd doesn't fire

Procedure:

1) Create a new session, enter off-line
2) Create two rooms with a link between them
3) Create an Event in the PE of type 'onWalkEnd':

Yes, that bug is still on the bug list.

Try it in Safe or Fast mode and let me know. I didn't have a good Slow Walk test, so that part might still be bugged.

Also make sure you have the option in the MUD Prompt configuration turned off that says "require prompt for Slow Walk" or something like that. My guess is that your slow walking might not be firing the "ConfirmStep" routine that comes in when you require a Prompt after the #OK.

It works in Fast walk mode. It doesn't work in Safe or Slow walk mode.

I used my old procedure and just switched them between the walk modes. Fast is the only one working.
