Hello

I am trying to build a mini aethercraft / hunt system with triggers. Is there somewhere posted in the forums that I missed or wiki on the trigger lines?

Also what is the best way for a empath to work?

The system I am using is Mush 4.47 and Lua.

The best way to empath is to send all the commands at the same time, in order of priority. Heal hull, grid, chair, turrets, collectors, then orb. Trying to heal something that doesn't need it doesn't take module balance, so the first thing you encounter that does need it will get healed. You'll probably want to gag the 'this module doesn't need healing' lines. You have to use the module numbers, so you'll want to capture them from the module list.

I wouldn't say that's the "best" way, but it's certainly easier to code.

Empath is ridiculously easy to manual with a few aliases, for hunting at least. I'd just manual it, figure out what works for you, then automate it if you want.

Then what's the better way?

Track module stats on GRID MODULES, cure the module in most dire need using whatever criteria you want. Allows for more flexibility (can change healing priorities on the fly), less spamming, works better through worble or murkle or whatever it is that makes it act like you're aeoned.

Similar to a proper curing system, basically.

Plus, slivven tracking. I know a few empaths who have scripts to SHIPT slivven location by module and person who is locked to it (or lack thereof).
