I need a script to record the past 50 kills in a window. I came up with Trigger: * is DEAD!!, which does: #capture Khistory. This works, but its not good enough, I only want 50 kills at a time (or another definable amount), and it would be nice if they were numbered, and the * was the only thing displayed in the window, not the is DEAD!!. Thx for any help.

You'll need to make an ongoing record of your kills then. I think this will work.

#ADDITEM KillList {%null}
#TR {(*) is DEAD} {#IF (%numitems(@KillList) = 50) {#DELNITEM KillList 1};#VAR KillList %additem(@KillList,"%1");ShowKillList}
#AL ShowKillList {:KillWindow:#CLR;#FORALL @KillList {:KillWindow:#SAY %format("2.0n",%i)~. %item(@KillList,%i)}}

Suppose you could do something like this.

Step 1.Put your cature trigger into a class, for example's sake: KillCap

Step 2.Make a variable called @Captill , this will count how many kills you've made.

Step 3. Put your current trigger into the class in step 1, and alter it like this:
#TR {%1 is DEAD~!~!} {#CAP Khistory;#ADD Captill 1;#IF {@Captill>=50} {#T- KillCap}}

This is an untested script, and I cant think of a way to keep from capturing the 'is DEAD' part without extensive scripting because #CAP works on a line by line bais.Good Luck!

Use the #WIN command with variable to just capture the name

e.g.
#TR {%1 is DEAD~!~!} {#WIN Khistory %1}

And I could be wrong, but if you go into preferences for the Khistory window and set the max number of lines to 50, only 50 kills will be stored at a time, when a new one is added after this, the first kill will disappear.

just out of pure curiosity...why?

If the question is why does he want to count his kills.... some muds give less and less xp per kill if you keep killing the same mob over and over. RoD for instance has this. In order to get max xp for mob x, you cant have killed another mob x in the past 50 kills.

The reason I want to do this is because as doomfire said, the mud I play rewards less experience the more you kill a mob. I have mudded for years and years, killed hundreds of thousands of mobs, and they are all starting to blur together, I can never remember if I am killing something too much.
