Wait/Alarm message
|
This is quite hard for me to work out how to code, but maybe easier for some of the good coders heh, here's what im trying to do:
When I see the message -> You deftly maneuver into position....
I would like ZMud to wait 20 seconds, then show a message alerting
me that I can backstab again (A cold shiver runs down your spine.)
I've tried using #WA to time and #ECHO to announce, but #WA, if used in conjunction with another #WA timer, ends up distrupting each other and becomes one big mess.
Thanks :) |

Instead of using #wa try reading the help file and using #ALARM

You can do this with a one-time alarm or a multi-state trigger.
#TR {You deftly maneuver into position} {#ALA +20 {#ECHO A cold shiver runs down your spine.}}
or
#TR {You deftly maneuver into position} {#NOOP}
#COND {} {#ECHO A cold shiver runs down your spine.} {Wait|Param=20000}
As you've already discovered, #WAIT shouldn't be used with triggers. |
