Trigger Return Value (If Any?)
|
Does a trigger return any value if it is set off...if so what? OR, is there any command that will return a value (possibly non-zero) if that trigger is executed? I am trying to make a small script that uses the #UNTIL command. Once the trigger is set off, I want the rest of that block to not be executed.

You can make a trigger return anything you want. Just have it set a variable in its script.

It seems I demand more of this "return". For example, if I have a block of code with a trigger at the top, the trigger will not execute until AFTER the entire block is done being executed. Here's what I mean (This is all within the trigger "You flee from combat!"):
#TRIGGER {Ralph}{Var1=@TheDirection}
TheDirection=south
scan north
TheDirection=west
scan east
TheDirection=north
scan south
TheDirection=east
scan west
TheDirection=down
scan up
TheDirection=up
scan down
#MOVE @Var1
So, what I'm trying to do here is if the "Ralph" trigger is set off while scaning in all directions (Let's say it was triggered after scanning south), I want the block to stop being executed before its completion (I'll use #UNTIL command to accomplish this). What I don't know how to do is to have some value be retured EXACTLY when the "Ralph" pattern is matched. Still need some help there, but thanks Vijilante. |
