I need something to read in my Hitpoints and my mana, heal me, and go back and buy a restore when my mana gets too low. prompt line for my mud is as follows:

[Azaroth] r[3084] [H1208 M1211 V1393] ex[D] >

if you could help me out, I would be very appreciative. If you need any more info lemme know. Contact me thru AIM if you have it SN: HawkNo71

#VAR MaxHitP {}
#VAR CostOfHeal {}
#ALIAS buyrestore {}
#TRIGGER {~[Azaroth~] r~[3084~] ~[H&HitP M&Mana V&Move~] ex~[&Exits~] ~>} {#IF ((@HitP < @MaxHitP) AND (@Mana > @CostOfHeal)) { cast heal self } { %if(@Mana < @CostOfHeal, buyrestore, "") } {prompt}

Ok, that SHOULD do it, couple things though:

1) CostOfHeal should be is the cost of casting heal on yourself. Just put the value into the default field, and "Reset to Default" on it.

2) MaxHitP should be your maximum Hitpoints, again, just put that value in as you did with CostOfHeal

3) buyrestore - This is a simple blank alias, and in here, simply put in the steps you need to do on your mud to buy a restore when your mana is low...

4) Since I'm not on your mud, this is untested, however, it should work (atleast, in zmud's eyes

)

Hope this atleast points you in the right direction.

Auto-heal scripts which rely on the prompt have a tendency to loop. This is because the prompt will continue to show less than max hp's until the healing spell, potion, whatever takes effect. I've used a variable (@healing) to prevent this, with a temporary alarm to reset the variable. You might need a larger number (+2, +3, etc) for the alarm. Oh, the #TR command has a CLASS field between the VALUE field (commands) and the OPTION field. It can be blank, but it still needs to be there.
Corrected trigger:
#VAR Healing 1 1
#TRIGGER {~[Azaroth~] r~[%d~] ~[H&HitP M&Mana V&Move~] ex~[&Exits~] ~>} {#IF ((@HitP < @MaxHitP) AND (@Mana > @CostOfHeal) AND (@Healing = 1)) {#VAR healing 0;#ALARM +1 {#VAR healing 1;#CR};cast heal self} {#IF (@Mana < @CostOfHeal) {buyrestore}}} {} {nocr|prompt}

grr, hate it when I forget something like that ;) I wasn't even looking at zmud at the time (infact, I was only really half here)

Yeah, good point though on the trigger looping problem.... I've had that issue from time to time with my scripts, but again, I wasn't using one as a reference, thanks for catching it.

I also find it good practice to give the alarms names so I dont accidentally create many of them.

ie:

#ALARM alarmhealing +1 {#VAR healing 1;#CR}

2cents!
