Hey all,

I'd like to make a script where it calculates the total hp, mana, move, pracs, and trains i got in a day before i reset it with a command.

The trigger is something like this:
Your gain is: 17 hits, 6 mana, 10 moves, 5 practices, and 1 trains.

Thanks.

Ok, someone with ZMUD got the script. It's just that since I have zero knowledge of scripting, could anyone please help with translate this?

To get you started, I have converted a couple of these examples:


<triggers>
  <trigger
   custom_colour="2"
   enabled="y"
   match="^Your gain is\: (\d+) hits\, (\d+) mana$"
   regexp="y"
   send_to="12"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>
var.hpcount = (var.hpcount or 0) + %1
var.tothp = (var.tothp or 0) + %1
var.manacount = (var.manacount or 0) + %2
var.totmana = (var.totmana or 0) + %2
var.levelcount = (var.levelcount or 0) + 1
</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>

<aliases>
  <alias
   match="gains"
   enabled="y"
   expand_variables="y"
   send_to="2"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>Your gains are: @hpcount hp, @manacount m, @levelcount levels</send>
  </alias>
</aliases>


This example assumes you are using the Lua language, and the "exampscript.lua" file as your script file (which ships with MUSHclient). This defines the "var" behaviour which is a quick way of accessing MUSHclient variables.

The example illustrates how you would add to the MUSHclient variables you named, plus the alias will show the results of the new values.

Thanks Nick,

I've added some to the triggers and alias and looks like I still got some problems. Here is what I've got so far

I got a trigger of:

<triggers>
<trigger
custom_colour="2"
enabled="y"
match="^Your gain is\: (\d+) hits\, (\d+) mana, (\d+) moves, (\d+) practices, and (\d+) trains.$"
regexp="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>var.hpcount = (var.hpcount or 0) + %1
var.tothp = (var.tothp or 0) + %1
var.manacount = (var.manacount or 0) + %2
var.totmana = (var.totmana or 0) + %2
var.movcount = (var.movcount or 0) + %3
var.totmov = (var.totmov or 0) + %3
var.prac = (var.prac or 0) + %4
var.totprac = (var.totprac or 0) + %4
var.levelcount = (var.levelcount or 0) + 1
</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>


and an alias of:

<aliases>
<alias
match="gains"
enabled="y"
expand_variables="y"
send_to="2"
sequence="100"
>
<send>Your gains are: @hpcount hp, @manacount mn, @movcount mv, @prac prac, and @levelcount levels</send>
</alias>
</aliases>


With also my Lua script enabled (called Erwin.lua) but contains no data in it.


and whenever I level, i got an error message of:

Error number: 0
Event: Run-time error
Description: [string "Trigger: "]:1: attempt to index global `var' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
[string "Trigger: "]:1: in main chunk
Called by: Immediate execution


Sorry if this is getting very long Nick, and thanks alot for your help.

In my earlier post I said you needed to make the exampscript.lua file your script file. That makes "var" work. Read this post, it describes what it is doing:

Cool, getting closer!

I used exampscript as my Lua script, when i run it, I got this error message:

Error number: 0
Event: Run-time error
Description: [string "Trigger: "]:1: attempt to perform arithmetic on a string value
stack traceback:
[string "Trigger: "]:1: in main chunk
Called by: Immediate execution


I've seen some posts regarding changing the values but don't quite get them since i got no knowledge in scripting. Help please?

So it is complaining about this line:

var.hpcount = (var.hpcount or 0) + %1

Either %1 is not a number (which it should be from the trigger), or the hpcount variable has a string in it.

Check what the hpcount variable has in it (from the Variables tab in the world configuration) and if it isn't a number, either make it zero or delete it.

Woohoo, it worked!

What i did was, i previously had all these variables manually entered into the variable table. I just deleted them all and it worked!


Thanks Nick!

This is the exact thing I'm looking for to use on my current mud of choice and it even runs off of the exact line that my gains (hp, mana, mov, practices and trains) do.
I could EASILY copy and paste this and have it work in my mud, but the only thing is - as you can tell by my forum name, I'm hopelessly blond and have no idea of where to even start with trying to implement this.
There's many other things that I'm interested in scripting/triggering/aliasing for the game, but unless it comes in a format that's easily understandable, such as:
-http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=8411
... that, then I'm afraid that most of this just looks like gibberish to me.
I've spent the past 24 hours reading up on triggers and aliases and scripts and I've had some minor success, but no where near enough for me to even attempt this.

The trigger line for gains is:
Your gain is: 2 hits, 4 mana, 6 moves, 5 practices, and 1 trains.
The numbers are, of course, ever changing. I would like to be able to count the levels (levels end at 150, so after that it's just rising in power everytime you recieve the gains line), hit points, mana and moves. There are some additional things that I'd like to include, though I don't know if it would have to be in the same script or different, but I would like to total the average hp, mana and movement points that I get.
I would LOVE for it to be in a table format, much like the killed mobs one... so if anyone could please help out a code dummy like me, that would be great.
