I would like to use the connection timer to help calculate how much exp/hour i can getting. is that information stored in a var or is there a way to capture that info for use with triggers?

Thanks

Modify as you need it to work:

lvltimehour=%eval( %word( @lvltimenew, 2, "|")-%word( @lvltimeold, 2, "|"))
lvltimemin=%eval( %word( @lvltimenew, 3, "|")-%word( @lvltimeold, 3, "|"))
lvltimesec=%eval( %word( @lvltimenew, 4, "|")-%word( @lvltimeold, 4, "|"))
#IF (@lvltimesec<0) {

To answer the question directly, the connection timer is stored in a system variable named %ctime. The particulars of that variable are that:

1)%ctime is stored in seconds.

2)when you first open the character window (the main window where all the mud text is displayed, plus all your child windows) but don't connect to the mud, %ctime = 0.

3)when you connect, %ctime is first initialized to 0 and then increments by 1 every second until you disconnect.

4)if you disconnect from the mud but don't close the character, %ctime retains the current amount of time you were connected (ie, %ctime = 459385)

Matt,
Quick question.
Is there a way to reset %ctime without closing the character?

krohnu,
Sorry about something in my script. It doesn't use the connection timer, but an hourly timer. hourly as in the time it says on your computer. so if it's 11:59 expect it to go off in a minute. of course if it's 11:59 and your computer time says it's 11:45 expect it to go off in 15 minutes. So if you connect at 11:59 get a kill in the one minute it will report. (no report unless there's been an exp or gold gain (got no exp but got gold)
Sorry about that. I posted without 1st thinking of what you really asked for.
I think that it's modifiable to work with the %ctime but i'm unsure how to trigger on it.
