Alarm + wait help
 
Botting/scripting is illegal on most muds that I play. I have everything set up to bot/script, however... I am running a bot that runs off of timers, and does not respond from the mud.

Here is my issue. I want to set the ticker to re-occur every 2 minutes which I have been able to do. My issue is, I want it to fire off at random times between 1:45 and 2:25 (that would be in minutes). So very simple, I want to (kill human) every 1:45-2:25 minutes. Is anyone able to show me how to do this? It must be random times, it cannot be the same time every time.

First off.. this is the wrong forum for questions, this is a place for sharing completed and working scripts.

As for the question... you would convert the time to seconds, and use the %random function
With the times you have supplied that would be: %random(105, 145)

You would then want to use an #ALARM:

#ALARM "killBot" +%random(105, 145) {kill human}

Now, this wont prevent it from randomly being the same number twice, but it should do what you want.

Seeing as it's in a zmud forum, make an educated guess.
