Multiple Characters windows and aliases |
I can get an alias from another character window to work if i use :emmy: he Darkon, this will cast heal on Darkon. The issue is I don't want to have to type out :emmy: each time so I made an alias for it. #alias {mm} {:emmy: %-1}. When I do 'mm he Darkon' in the emmy window i see he Darkon but the alias in that session does not seem to be called.
There has to be something I am missing.
Thanks for the help. |

Try using the #EXECWIN command instead.

it sends 'he Darkon' to the window. but does not run the alias in that window emmy I want it to be able to use the alias he in the emmy window. he is cast 'heal' %-1. but instead i get a message there is no help file for Darkon.

And you're using the code #EXECWIN emmy {he %-1} ? I just tested it and #EXECWIN definitely does run aliases...

no I am using #alias {mm} {#EXECWIN emmy {%-1} then i type mm he Darkon the he alias in the package file emmy in that i log in with on emmy character. I want to be able to use the alias from the emmy package file.
In zmud i used to be able to do with but broke when i converted my file to cmud.
If i manual type :emmy: he darkon it works, but if i do it from and alias to the emmy window it just send information as plan text of he darkon and it will not run the he alias from the package in the emm window. My main mussing window uses Tank and the tank package. So from the tank window i get my second charcter to do what i need it to do without having to switch to that window. Sometimes heal me or cast group fly or any of the other alias's in its own file. |

Ah, that's why. I assumed you had the he in your #execwin command. You'll need to use this instead:
Code: |
#alias mm {#EXECWIN emmy {#EXEC %-1}} |

Thank you so much this works.
Wonder why this is so much more difficult in cmud than zmud. |
