Zugg Software :: View topic - Trigger Question....not as easy as my last one

As a quick response

Check out the #math command.

Then insert the variable into your gossip command.

I dunno if u can insert the math command into your script as you have done, but this does work (on my machine at least)

#TRIGGER {^INFO~: ~[(%w)~] has gained level %d!}
#var leveller %1
#var level %2
#math level 41-@level
#ALARM +2 {gossip tell Gratz @leveller, only @level until you get to play with the big Boys}

This isn't the most elegant fo scripts, and I'm sure one of the guru's 'll pull me up on something...

In the action part of the trigger, use %1, %2, %3, etc. In the trigger-phrase portion put parentheses around the wildcards you want to use in the action part. In other words, do the same thing with %d that you are doing with %w.

#MATH is for creating/changing variables. What you need here is the %eval function.

#TRIGGER {^INFO~: ~[(%w)~] has gained level (%d)!} {#ALARM +2 {gossip Gratz %1, only %eval(41-%2) until you get to play with the big Boys}}

HINT: Look up the commands and functions people suggest in the helpfile, it will help you avoid obvious errors.

#class autoGrat
#TRIGGER {^INFO~: ~[(%w)~] has gained level (%d)!} {#ALARM +2 {gossip Gratz %1, only %eval(41-%2) until you get to play with the big Boys;#T+ autoGrat};#T- autoGrat}
#class 0

This creates a group called autoGrat, and it contains the trigger for your auto congrats. When the trigger fires, it will turn itself off for 2 seconds. This should work fine as long as two different people do not level at the same time. But that probably will happen if people group or make formations...

For that case.. this should work.

#TRIGGER {^INFO~: ~[(%w)~] has gained level (%d)!} {#if (!%ismember( %1, @gratList)) {#additem gratList {%1};#ALARM +%random( 2, 5) {gossip Gratz %1, only %eval( 41-%2) until you get to play with the big Boys;#delitem gratList {%1}}}}

That creates a list of people to grat, and after you grat the person, s/he gets removed from the list. I also made it so it'll grat from 2 to 5 seconds, just in case a bunch of people level at the same time, so you will not be gratting all of them 2 seconds after it happens.

Use #IF. If (41-%2) > 0 do as before. Otherwise, use your new avatar grat.

As for the previous question, it probably can be done. It would involve storing the name and level to variables, then updating the level variable as each new level came in. The name variable would provide a means of checking that all the leveling messages applied to the same person. You would then need to start a timer with the first INFO, and when it expired, send out your grats with the highest level that had been seen. However, I'm not going to attempt writing it for you, as it will take considerable work and testing to get right.

I say lets put an end to this one...hopefully.

#TRIGGER {^INFO~: ~[(%w)~] has gained level (%d)!} {#IF (%2>41) {gossip Crimson welcomes it's newest Avatar, %1.} {#EXEC %concat("#ALARM ",%char(34),"%1",%char(34)," +2 {gossip Gratz %1, only %eval(41-%2) until you get to play with the big Boys}")}}

There that should make an ALARM with the players name as the id, that provides that each time a player levels the ALARM is overwritten if it hasn't fired yet. I have been using id's with ALARMs for quite a while, but it is undocumented and therefore unsupported.
