In Zmud, I've assigned variables triggered from my hp bar into bunch of info like this:

@HP = %1
@HPMAX = %2

then:

#MATH hpdamage (@HPMAX-@HP)

This worked in Zmud however, I downloaded CMUD and tried importing.. the same thing does not seem to work. I played around with it and tried searching help files and so on, I still do not see anything that even remotely helps.. hoping someone can answer soon.

Basically you don't need #math here. When hpdamage is a variable, then it's sufficent to do

hpdamage=@hpmax-@hp

EDIT: Hah. I was going to write that I haven't used #Math at all myself, nor under CMud nor under ZMud, but I figured
I can just as well do a little test in untitled session in CMud.

CMud is a lot more strict in its syntax than ZMud ever was, hence you have to remove ()'s and your #math will work the way
its intended.

Don't assign vars with @var=blah.

#VAR var blah or var=blah

@ is for referencing a variable, not setting it.

I've already setted all variables with @HP, @HPMAX as I use them in other triggers

I now have:

HP[380(98)/380] SP[294(98)/294] NP[730/730|1c] E[none]
ERROR: Trigger "HP~[(%d)~((%d)~)/(%d)~] SP~[(%d)~((%d)~)/(%d)~] NP~[(%d)/(%d)|(%d)c~]" fired but did not compile

when checking HP. Script is:

#VAR HP=%1
#VAR HPfuse=%2
#VAR HPMAX=%3
#VAR SP=%4
#VAR SPfuse=%5
#VAR SPMAX=%6
#VAR NP=%7
#VAR NPMAX=%8
#VAR CORPSES=%9

What Forren is saying is that you should be doing this:

Interesting enough, re-writing the HP script fixed it.. now the new problem is the second line of my hpbar: another script error

Fixed the problem myself.. not sure why Zmud allowed me to enter a command of "=give corpse" while in Cmud I needed to "~=give corpse"

thanks for helping

In Cmud you use "&&" not "&".

The reason for the is the syntax compiler in CMUD is much stricter than it was in zMUD. Adding the tilde '~' tell CMUD to treat the '=' literally and that's its not part of an assignment.
