I read the zMUD help files that they provide, and I found the #ALARM syntax, but how exactly does it work? The way they word it is confusing for me. Could someone simple it down for me?

You can create alarms with various timers.

You can make a temporary alarm that will disappear after it fires, by using + in front of the time value (in seconds):



You can make a recurring alarm that doesn't disappear when it fires, by using * in front of the time value (in seconds):



You can make an alarm that fires on specific times of the day, such as changing your log files at midnight every day or something like that, but using no + or * in front of the absolute time value:



And, if you want to control a timer, you give it a name. This allows you to enable and disable it, see how much time is left on it (with %alarm) and even change the time left on it (again, with %alarm):



Hope that helps.

Wow. Yes! Thanks!

Now, how does the #SET command work? I read about it, and it makes sense, but I'm not clear on one thing. There's a Trigger in Nexus that picks up gold when it drops from a corpse. It looks like:



Then the Script sent through is:



Then it goes off into another balance trigger I have set up. My questions is, does the #SET command in zMUD need that = sign? The help would be appreciated! Thanks again!

I think what you're looking for is #var gold 1

Thank you.

Now, is there a way to turn off the NUMPad being your walking thing? So that I can use the NUMPad like the numbers on the keyboard? And is there a way to allow me to scroll up on zMUD? So far, I'm not able to...

You can scroll up using Page Up and Page Down or use the scroll bar on the right. You can also toggle the scrollback window with Ctrl-Z. It's re-sizeable, so you can set it to whatever height works for you.

You can disable the Numpad walking macros with these two commands:

Zarquan, the world would be in total dissolusion if you didn't have your knowlege of stuff! Thanks!

oooh, I've been trying to figure out how to do that, awesome.
