i will type <mend *> with * being the obj.
and the mud returns <You buff and polish * a bit.>

i want to keep sending <mend *> till it doesnt return the msg.

Ah, if you want it to send mend something (that would be "mend %1" to mend the first wildcard) that is easy enough.


<aliases>
  <alias
   match="mend *"
   enabled="y"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>mend %1</send>
  </alias>
</aliases>

For advice on how to copy the above, and paste it into MUSHclient, please see Pasting XML.

But to send this until you *don't* get a message? You are you planning for doing that? Not getting a message can't trigger anything.

Do you mean, if you don't get the message "You buff and polish (whatever) a bit." within 5 seconds?

well , by typing "mend suit" will prompt one of these responses
(not in any particular order):

"You bend suit WAY out of shape while trying to mend it!!"
"You brutally mangle suit in your attempt to mend it!!"
"You cringe at the condition of suit and you wish you had an anvil."
"You get out a huge hammer to repair suit."
"You get out a large hammer to repair suit."
"You get out a small hammer to repair suit."
"You work long and hard to make suit useable once again."

so for each of those (7) responses i made a trigger to send out "mend suit" again.

mending will either end in:
FIX IT:You look at an suit in amazement!!! It is obvious you have created a masterpiece!!

BREAK IT: The suit in your attempt to mend it and it is TOTALLY DESTROYED!!

so my problem is that for each item i mend i have to make a whole new set of these

eg;suit, sword, axe..

can i do it a simpler way?
thanks Nick.

All you have to do is capture the line which tells you that you had problems mending <item> and mend it again, like this:


<triggers>
  <trigger
   enabled="y"
   match="You bend * WAY out of shape while trying to mend it!!"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>mend %1</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>

Now make one of those for each message. Since it matches on a wildcard, it will apply to suits, swords etc.

Well, not exactly as shown. I did not have "regular expression" checked, and you do have. Try doing without checking regular expressions.

Why did you change that, when it worked without it?

okay changing to regular expression puts the item as "a bag"
so when it triggers the return to be "mend a bag", which doesnt work.
