Need help with trigger
|
I need a trigger that will make the mapper follow my location whenever I'm following someone. The display is like this:
XXX goes north
You follow XXX
How do I make the mapper move north?
thx

If I understand it correctly, this makes the person's name hardcoded, so that the trigger will only work for following that person. Can it be made generic, like the direction?

How about making an alias so that whenever you join a person's group, it sets their name to the leader variable? On my mud, the command to join a person's group is follow <person>.
#alias follow {follow %1; #var leader %1}
Now, whenever you change groups, that leader variable will update automatically. |

No, it's not hard-coded to one person. I used a variable, @leader. Anytime you want to follow someone else, just change the variable. That's why I used it.
By the way, you'll have severe recursion problems (you'll lock up your computer) with that alias unless you change it to:
#AL follow {~follow %1; #VAR leader %1}
