DoAfter is capitalized (like so).

EDIT: Actually, what scripting language are you using? That looks like VBscript.

In Lua, it would be:

DoAfter(1, "pilot steer n")



Here's what I think you want:


<aliases>
  <alias
   match="lazy"
   enabled="y"
   sequence="100"
   send_to="12"
  >
    <send>
      Send("pilot steer n")
      DoAfter(5, "pilot steer n")
    </send>
  </alias>
</aliases>


Notice also that I put the plaintext command (the first line in your alias) in a Send() call, and added a send_to attribute which is the same thing as setting the Send To dropdown to Script.

line 1 is the raw text that you'd send to world.
line 2 is the script command to wrap it in a timer that you'd send to script.

do one or the other, not both. :)

I believe

DoAfter(1, "pilot steer n")

is what you want in the field and don't forget to change the
Send to: world
into Send to: script
you will find this on the left towards the bottom.

That's what got me the first time.

What do you mean 'turn on and off'? The alias? It will only run once for every time you use it.

Template:function=EnableAlias EnableAlias

The documentation for the EnableAlias script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.


Is this what your looking for?

No idea... what I truly need is for this alias to continue to loop and when I need it off it disables the alias. Here is what I got so far.


<aliases> 
  <alias 
   match="lazy" 
   enabled="y" 
   send_to="12" 
   sequence="100" 
  > 
  <send> 
Send("pilot steer n") 
DoAfter(.5, "pilot steer n") 
DoAfter(1, "pilot steer n") 
DoAfter(1.5, "pilot steer n") 
DoAfter(2, "pilot steer n") 
DoAfter(2.5, "pilot steer w") 
DoAfter(3, "pilot steer w") 
DoAfter(3.5, "pilot steer w") 
DoAfter(4, "pilot steer w") 
DoAfter(4.5, "pilot steer w") 
DoAfter(5, "pilot steer s") 
DoAfter(5.5, "pilot steer s") 
DoAfter(6, "pilot steer s") 
DoAfter(6.5, "pilot steer s") 
DoAfter(7, "pilot steer s") 
DoAfter(7.5, "pilot steer e") 
DoAfter(8, "pilot steer e") 
DoAfter(8.5, "pilot steer e") 
DoAfter(9, "pilot steer e") 
DoAfter(9.5, "pilot steer e") 
</send> 
  </alias> 
</aliases>

That would work but the alias with the commands you want to send won't loop.

Make a timer that you enable or disable from an alias.
