Removing format characters from player names
|
The following trigger autoheals other players on request.
#Trigger (&healreq tells you: heal please) {mheal %lower(@healreq)}
The problem is that this mud allows new characters to choose special display formatting for the names which I need to strip. Ex: shangchi has elected to have a space and capitals in his name so I receive "Shang Chi tells you: heal please". mheal Shang Chi will not work. I really need to use a list of characters to be removed because they can also use ',`,-, etc...
Unfortunately the mud does not allow players to remove formatting once chosen. |
