Ok I know there is an avialbe free system for mushclient but I would rather try to build one myself. Allthough until I buy my new computer i wont be taking part in very much combat due to the lag. But in any case was wondering how to make a basic targeting system and if I could use the large list of affliction and unaffliction lines for mushclient triggers.(Switching over from MM2k)

Copy and paste this into your aliases (on the configuration dialog) and it will allow you to set a Target variable with 't whatever' as the command.



This is an example alias for attacking a target. Replace it with an attack you want to use.

I have developed (somewhat) a free system for MUSHclient with many affliction and defense triggers. You're welcome to try it out and use it as a reference, but it's not supported by me or even completely finished yet.

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/achaeacure/Mush/
(Hint: look in the ire/lcp folder for plugins with triggers and scripts.)

thanks for the help, is there any place I can read on how to code in Mushclient after I read a bit i should pick it up fast. Just needed a targeting thing for the moment

Three places I recommend you read/search:

1. MUSHclient help files, especially the script functions documentation.

2. MUSHclient forums. Nick and others answer many common questions and post cool scripts.

3. Any site with a tutorials and documentation on the scripting language you've chosen to use, such as http://www.lua.org/pil for Lua.

how do you get mushclient to insert a random number so I can get how much health I bleed highlited. Also how do you get it to read part of a line when you put it in a trigger?

You need to use a wildcard in your trigger pattern. The basic pattern would be "You bleed * health." and whatever the * matches is stored in %1. The regular expression would be "You bleed \\d+ health\\." and the number you bleed is again stored in %1.

Not sure what you mean by 'read part of a line.'

ok I got a question what do I change if I want to see a message I wrote in the trigger but dont want it sent to the world I just want it on the screen?

bumping my question

Send to output, or send to script and use the Note type functions.

ok thanks when making an auto sipper would I use the two messages you get related to health then set up a variable?

bumping my question on how to make an auto sipper and then turn it on and off
