DB to Stringlist help
|
I'm using zMud to play on Medievia. Part of the game involves doing "trading" between places. You can value items to be traded at the different trade posts.
What I've done is to capture the output of the values and placed them into a database...
#alias valueall {#var ValLoc { %pick( "P:Choose your current location.", @Posts.postnames)} {%null} {Modes|Trading|Variables}
#forall @goods {value %i covered}}
The user can pick the current post he is at from a picklist and it is placed into a variable called @ValLoc
A trigger captures the information as it is output to the screen and places it into a database.
#trig {can carry * of (*). We'll pay you (*) gold for that.} {#addkey {@{ValLoc}} {%1} {%replace( "%2", ",", "")}}
So far, so good.. all works as planned.
Now what I am TRYING to do is to show a window/picklist that displays the values that have been captured in the database. I can display them in the normal output window using #showdb, but thats not what I'm trying to do.
I'm looking at possibilities of sorting the list according to values received, being able to select one of the values and seeing where it comes from (I have a database set up with goods locations), etc...
Any help from the Gurus on how to move the db into a picklist?
Thanks. |
