I realise that this has probably been asked hundreds of times before, but after searching i couldnt find them.
Apologies if they were right under my nose

Basically progamming scares me completly, i cant even code the most basic whatever
Ive just loaded up mushclient and so far its going well, however i cant seem to find a way to get
1, a navigation compass
2, mapping (not the one that come on the client, a visual map)

I think these both need to be in VBscript i i use ethalons free sustem (which was fantastic! btw)

If someone has a link to a site where i can get one of these or can walk me through creating one it would be absolutly fantastic.

crossing fingers

There are two pinned topics on this forum about building your own GUI app for use with MUSHclient. The example GUI built in the tutorial just happens to be a compass. It's quite a painful process, especially for someone who has trouble with programming, so be warned.

Ah the thing i wasnt sure about there is that is uses python and the scripting i am using is in VBscript..does that matter/is there a way around that

Still being dense

You can use different languages in different plugins, and since the GUI code pretty much has to be in a separate plugin because of the UDP communications, it works. You have to download and install ActivePython, of course.

For a compass, see here: http://forums.lusternia.com/index.php?showtopic=8903

It's done in Lua, not VBscript, but you can still use it since MUSHClient allows multiple plugins in multiple languages. I don't claim to be an expert, but if you're set on VBscript you could also try dissecting mine to get an idea of how to make a VBscript version.

Thank you so much both of you, I've loaded Arundor's system yet I'm having a problem with it. When i installed in on the plugins this error message came up

Line 255: overwriting existing variable contents (gui_prevprompt)

Any suggestions

Liking that he's in Arundors signiture

That's not a problem, you can safely ignore it.

Oh right...YEAH ive got it now, i was just pressing the wrong thing

Thanks guys for helping me out with this malarky
