a "bleed" trigger
|
I havent played many muds, been loyal to only 2-3 all based on same code. In this code, if you drop below half HP your character will leave a blood trail if you run. I used to have a trigger package that had a lot of useful triggers but lost it over the years cause i quit mudding. I have now gotten back into playing again and want to rebuild some. I have forgotten how to make my own triggers etc though.
below is a custom prompt i made for my priest
Health/Movement/Mana/Earth-Water Mana/Experience/etc
(current/max)Hp (current/max)Mv (current/max)Ma (water mana)W (earth mana)E [xp]
I need a trigger set that will take the health values and do 2 things.
i see a new feature Gauges, my first request could make use of this feature perhaps.
i need a "bleeder" trig that will report that i have reached half health (through group message and/or an echo)
and i need one that will report the number value of my health upon the death of a mob ( through group message and/or echo)
i don't want to steal anyone's "coding" expertize but i could use some help, its all Greek to me now. |

my prompt ( just noticed somehow it wasnt in first post)
(886/886)Hp (299/299)Mv (339/339)Ma (137)W (137)E [3023688]
(886/886)Hp <-- My health/hitpoints first number is my current health and second is my max health
if half of my max is reached i "bleed" so 443 or less with current numbers..but these numbers are subject to change.
I'm sure i need a couple variables set with some #math but its been so long since i manipulated with zmud, and never with cmud i just do not know where to start |

This -should- work.
Paste it onto the XML tab of a new trigger.
It also populates all the variables you will need to make your gauges, those are best made through the GUI however.
| Code: |
<trigger priority="12860" newline="false" prompt="true" id="1286">
<pattern>~((%d)/(%d)~)Hp ~((%d)/(%d)~)Mv ~((%d)/(%d)~)Ma ~((%d)~)W ~((%d)~)E ~[(%d)~]</pattern>
<value><![CDATA[hp=%1
hpMax=%2
move=%3
moveMax=%4
mana=%5
manaMax=%6
WaterMana=%7
EarthMana=%8
exp=%9
#IF (@hp<(@hpMax/2)) {
group message here
#ECHO {Yo, yer <color crimson>bleedin</color>!}
}]]></value>
</trigger> |
P.S. #MATH is outdated, most expressions work just fine by enclosing it in parenthesis (a=((@b+@c)*@d) |

It works, :) too well
the echo and group message works but it spams like crazy
any way to make it just say it once? or every now and again? |

there is, how often would you like it to fire is the real question?
Just required more variables and checks.
| Code: |
#IF (@hp<(@hpMax/2)) {bleeding=(@bleeding+1)} {bleeding=0}
#SWITCH (@bleeding)
(0) {#NOOP}
(1) {group stuff}
(5) {bleeding=0} |
That should spam the message only every 5th time it gets the message after the 1st |

in that case... I would make use of an alias to do the announcments
| Code: |
#EVENT onBleeding {
group message here
#ECHO {Yo, yer <color crimson>bleedin</color>!}
#T- onBleeding
#ALARM "stillBleeding" +3 {#T+ onBleeding}
} |
This event turns itself off for three seconds with each use.
Then change the check in the original trigger to be:
| Code: |
| #IF (@hp<(@hpMax/2)) {#RAISE onBleeding} |
edit: it was an alias at first, but just turning of the alias would not stop cmud from sending the alias command.. which would then get sent to the MUD when the alias is turned of, the event gets around this issue. |
