I am having issues with correctly labeling everything so the trigger captures it...

The max/current ego strength of Lorina: 5000/5000

‎^The max\\/current ego strength of (\\w+)\\: (\\d+)\\/(\\d+)$

if tonumber(matches) / tonumber(matches) <= 0.5
then mm.doadd("psi super mindburst " .. matches)
else mm.doadd("psi super psychicvampirism " .. matches)
end

What exactly is the problem? I pasted exactly what you had, and it worked fine.

Hmm well that is weird. I cannot get it to work for me

Are you using the regular expression trigger option?

Is there a way to sort a Lua table by value rather than key?

Is there a way to limit the number of backups that Mudlet can make for a single profile? At 3mb each, and with more than 150, I'm relatively concerned about space issues. If there was a way to limit each profile to x backups, that would be amazing. Alternatively, if you could just specify a maximum space for backups that would be nice, too.

I guess the quick fix is to go and manually delete all the old ones you don't need.

I just delete all but the most recent five or so every now and then.

I've played other Mud's before and used zMud as my primary client when doing so. Mudlet is by far faster and better though so when I came to Lusternia I switched to that. But what I can do with Mudlet at this time is severly limited though.

I used to have the most awesome thing set up for elixlist/potionlist that really helped me sort my vials. And it seems that my old setup has spoiled me. I'm having a really hard time getting used to the way just doing PL shows it.

This is what my setup made it look like:



Does anyone have something similar? And if not could someone give me detailed information about how to proceed in making it?

Well, there is this. You also have access to POTIONLIST SHORT (PL SHORT) in game.

Hope that helps some.

@StarHawk: that's very possible to do in Mudlet, sure.

What is the correct way to clear a table of its values? Setting it to {} or nil seems to maintain the values in it, somehow. Do I have to go through it and clean out all the rows or something?

table(remember to never use table as a table name) = {}
that should do it

From experience, I have found it better to just do myTable = nil rather than explicitly declare an empty table. You can just declare again when needed.

Ok, I am confused then. The following piece of code is part of an experience counter I'm working on. For some reason, it only starts to show data on the third mob slain. And I have no idea why it behaves like that o_o

If anyone savvy with maths / code could also check if this is in fact calculating correctly and if there aren't any other glaring errors in it that'd be lovely too.

To get this to work: Send QSC on "You have slain" and make that a gate. Trigger for 15 more lines. Have the child trigger work on this regexp: ^\\*| Level : (\\d+) \\( ?(\\d+).(\\d+)%\\)

I have some questions that I'm really confuzzled about but it's a lot more than I'd like to share with here, would anyone be willing to help me via forum pms?

I would probably need to look at it longer and see it in action to understand what all is going on here, but I did notice one thing. The first time the script runs, newxp and newtime don't exist yet, so oldxp and oldtime are being set to nil, meaning they don't exist either. This messes up your calculations.Why it waits until the third mob to work, I'm not sure, I would think it would work on the second. Checking qsc before you kill your first mob should fix that, but if you're triggering on the "You have slain" line, that will be difficult. Personally, I'd have the kill line turn on a trigger that matched on the first line of qsc, and then send qsc. Have the prompt turn the trigger back off. Make an alias, "start bashing", or something like that, that does the same thing the kill line does.

From running the backup deleter. Eesh.

I think the area is also in the room coordinates?

Alright I am still new to mudlet so I'm figuring things out quick, and the one thing I'm really missing before I can do combat reliably without thinking too much is pretty much this trigger. I would like to know why the below isn't working, what I'm doing wrong. I'm open to suggestions on how to do this better as well! Also what is that little bug that tells me my script won't work, is that a ladybug? It's really cool whatever it is, even though it kind of frustrates me.


This is the line I get from contemplating. I have perl regex selected



This is in the Script box, and I have commented the Lua error I'm getting in the script.
