Anyone got a working influencing script for zMud? I am not even going to attempt to code one myself because it just won't happen wink.gif

Not sure if you'd want mine. It goes something like this:

CODE
**ALIAS**
Name: comp
Value:
influence %1 with @comptype
@tar = %1
@tarlife = 1


**VARIABLE**
Name: comptype
Value: (leave blank)

Name: tar
Value: (leave blank)

Name: tarlife
Value: (leave blank)


**TRIGGERS**

Name: ^You compliment
Value: @comptype = admiration

Name: ^You confide in
Value: @comptype = compliments

Name: puffs up her chest and a crazy gleam enters her eyes
Value: @tarlife = 0

Name: puffs up his chest and a crazy gleam enters his eyes
Value: @tarlife = 0

Name: is so caught up in admiring himself that he barely
Value:
@tarlife = 0
#EC -- ALREADY INFLUENCED --

Name: is so caught up in admiring herself that she barely
Value:
@tarlife = 0
#EC -- ALREADY INFLUENCED --

Name: ^You have recovered equilibrium.
Value: #if (@tarlife = 1) {comp @tar}


To "initiate" it, you'd need to INFLUENCE MOB WITH (compliment type) the very first time ever, and then after that it does the rest.

Edit: That is to say, after using it once on a mob, for the rest of the time you have the script, all you'll need to do is COMP (mob).

You shouldn't use @var = value. Leave off the @.

Those triggers can be simplified by matching %w instead of his or her.

Keep in mind that this is only for empowering, and it only seems to use two of the types, not all three.

When I don't include the @'s, the script doesn't work.

I C+P'd the trigger lines from the game.

I haven't coded in the third type, but Iola is a smart girl and I'm sure with something very basic like what I gave her, she can probably figure out how to throw in the third type and make it run more smoothly than I can. content.gif

You need the @ to retrieve the value stored in a variable. You should not use it to set a variable. For some reason (unknown to Zugg, too, it seems), zMUD seems to ignore this and do what you expected, anyway. Note, however, that CMUD treats these two syntaxes entirely differently.

I was looking for more than just empowering, yes, and I'm transcendent Influence so having everything in there already would be a bonus. As much as I could go through it and edit it myself...I don't want to have to really.

I'd heard that influencers were lazy, but... hide.gif

I just hate coding.

Well, I wrote one for myself in CMUD. Its kinda an semi auto. biggrin.gif
I think I can write it for ZMUD.

I have a good one for sale for like 5 credits. Ask like Sarra or someone if you need assurances.
