Hi, I have a friend who uses javaclient and I have a question on how triggers and such work on that. Does anyone know how a simple targeting line would work?

Try this
Variable Tar
Alias Target(insert chosen target here)
#set tar (target chosen in alias)

say then write something to attack the target, like

Keybinding Ctrl-Enter
Attack $tar



For each target that you want, you need to create a new alias as shown above, without the Parenthesis. I'm sure that there's a better way, but this is what I've found to work.

I like that you used "say" before a sentence in a forum post.

I get it a lot in the mudlet IRC channel, and have done it a bit myself. Just becomes habit after awhile, especially while logged in.


As regards the alias, I don't know where the javaclient docs are, but surely there must be a way to set up an alias to set $tar = something you type. Something like

Alias tar *
set tar=%1

or some such?

with a link to the docs I could prolly figure it out, if you're interested.

Super late, but it should be:

Variable: target

Alias: tar
#set target $1

So inputting "tar rockeater" would set the target variable to "rockeater".
Then you can use $tar in your aliases... like:

Alias: k
kick $tar
plaugh $tar
etc.
