[Alias] Alias including parameters
|
Hey!
Yes, it's me again. Sadly I'm not a scripting genius.. In my MUD I have a spell / miracle I'd like to alias, looking like this:
| Code: |
| Usage: pchannel <miracle> <args> with <priest> |
My problem is that the <args> is not always needed and if used, it may consist of a varying number of words, here's a few examples:
| Code: |
pchannel cure with friend
pchannel cure friend2 with friend
pchannel cure large human with friend
pchannel cure green-eyed upnosed male elf with friend |
Is there any way to solve this so that I am able to type something like this?
| Code: |
| pchan cure (args) friend |
Thanks a lot in advance!

#ALIAS pchan {
#IF (%numwords(%params)=1) {pchannel cure with %params} {
$friend=%word(%params, %numwords(%params))
$friend2=%expandlist(%delitem(%numwords(%params), %replace(%params, " ", "|")))
pchannel cure $friend2 with $friend
}}
Untested, but I think that should work. |

Thanks for the fast reply! Turns out whenever you write these things to a forum and think you provided all needed information, you didn't.
Besides it was late and apparently I couldn't think of this stuff earlier, my apologies.
And having found a solution for my alias myself right now, I feel so stupid to have bothered you with this.
The missing information was: My MUD limits me in a way, so I can only channel stuff to people I established a mental link to, meaning targetting
others besides the linked one is impossible without relinking to someone else.
--> Since I'm already using a variable based targetting system I just created aliases + triggers that would put the one I'm linked to and the <args> part in variables, leaving
me with a super easy alias..
| Code: |
#if (%2 = "t") {
pchannel %1 @ctarget with @fcon
} {
pchannel %0 with @fcon
} |
Probably could be more elegant but works for now :)
Thanks for your time and effort! |
