Trigger stops triggering after it gets "interrupted"
|
I have a "Find Room" script that I use on my mud that syncs with my map. --- I'm going to try and keep this short, as I know nobody likes to read a book just to help someone else.
What is supposed to happen is I type "find" and it sends a "look" command to the mud, and then captures the room, and searches for my room on my map and moves me to that room on the map so that i'm in sync with it.
Video Here: http://screencast.com/t/3HxROx22
The script works great 99% of the time. However, the 1% it stops working. And then it's broken until I close zmud, and start it back up again. I have NO IDEA why that will make it work again.
What happens when it's broken is that the trigger:
| Code: |
| ^*obvious exits: (*) ]$ |
stops triggering. I can reload the re-try the "find" all I want, it never triggers. However, if I do a "test" and copy the line from the mud that it triggers on, and put it in the test box, it tests positive. I can manually "execute" the trigger, and it works too. But that doesn't reset it or anything. It is still broken. I can type "find" all i want, and nothing ever works.
Video of it broken here: http://screencast.com/t/WVm21CbW and here http://screencast.com/t/RzqJFjIT35
For years, I just delt with the issue. But, now I've narrowed it down to 1 common occurrence that appears to do the breaking. You can see it in this screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/5nZj5ngU
In that screenshot, you can see that one of my other triggers. "kill 2.leatherleaf" triggered and put that in there before the "Matching Room Found" text. I have found that EVERYTIME something like this happens. it breaks. I have no idea why it's breaking it. This can also happen when I'm running a long distance, and have already put in like 15+ commands to move, and then i type "find" in the middle of it somewhere, and the script fires, but the "look" command doesn't go through until the rest of my directional commands go through. When the "look" command does go through, it'll find my room once, and then it breaks the trigger again.
I did do a little big of modifying the script that i'll past below. And maybe that's the reason it doesn't work. what i did it took out the "#say" in on the bottom of the "obvious" trigger. the one found
| Code: |
| #IF (@findverbose) #say |
. I didn't like the space after the "matching room found". And then I took out the %crlf before the
| Code: |
| #SAY %crlf Matching room found! Correcting map position. |
.
Maybe someone can tell me if that's the whole reason it's happening. maybe there's a reason that the #say and the %crlf have to be in there or it does break occasionally. HOWEVER, even without modifying the code, I was able to break it.
Here's one more video showing that.

If Anyone can help me fix this. That would be awesome!
Thank you in advance! (I hope i've given you everyone you need to look into it!)

Nothing is jumping out at me with a quick skim, but since you mentioned the command as a possible cause...
Maybe your hunting script is interferring somhow? |

Thank you for the response.
And that would definitely be nice if all i had to do was change up my "hunting script". However, like I mentioned, if I enter in a long string of directional commands, and then type a "find"... Sometimes that will mess it up as well. So it's not just the hunting script that is causing it.
I understand that from just looking at it, it's hard fix it. So Thank you anyways for looking at it! |

I half suspect you may have corrupted your settings file somehow.
Not sure if the CMUD method of trying to preserve your settings would work for zMUD.
Been awhile since i used it outright. |
