New windows
|
Could someone post what the commands needed to send information to an additional window are. I'd like to have a small window in which all the information from the gossip channel appears. The string from the mud is <player> gossips <message>. Eventally I'd like to learn how to send other stuff to a window but If I could get this example it would help me tremendously. I'm using zmud v4.62. I appriciate the help.

You can use the #CAPTURE to send lines you receive to another window. The #WINDOW enables you to display text in another window. Finally, you can use the : character to execute any command in another window such as #SH, #SAY or #ECHO.
All of this is with 6.16 in mind. Since you have 4.62 you will need to find out which of these exactly are available or upgrade your zMUD free of charge.

Thanks I got the window to work ;however, my screen still scrolls up everytime a line is captured to the gossips window and if the captured text is more than one line the second line is not captured or gaged.. Is there a way to prevent this and also prevent my mud prompt from appearing everytime a line is gaged? The trigger I am using is:
#trigger {gossips} {#Capture gossips;#GAG}
Thanks, Matt
PS I did upgrade :) |

Now the problem is a little more complicated and somewhat more MUD specific. Try checking in the Finished Scripts forum for some scripts to capture multi-line tells/chats/gossips/etc. They most likely won't work right away for you, but with some tweaking you should get them set up. At the worst case, you should at least get an idea of what you need to accomplish this.
If you get stuck, don't hesitate to ask. However, be sure to mention which script you decided to use, the exact problem you have and show some sample MUD output.
