question about alias
|
is there a way to set an alias to send two sets of commands ?
in one set id like 4 or 5 commands to be sent to the mud with the #wait command
the other set doesnt need a wait command
can one alias do this or do i have to use more than one ? |

One can do it. Just need to use a conditional block of some sort. #IF and #CASE are basically your choices.

You can do that easily with something like
#alias blah {command1;#alarm +NumOfSeconds {command2;#alarm +NumOfSeconds {command3}}}
or
#alias blah {command1;#alarm +NumOfSeconds1 {command2};#alarm +NumOfSeconds1PlusNumOfSeconds2 {command3}}
or
#alias blah {command1;#wait #=NumOfSecondsX1000;command2;#wait NumOfSecondsx1000;command3}
I really DO NOT recommend using the last one. #wait is horrid :(
If you want to send multiple commands all at once, just put semicolons after them.
#alias blah {command1;command2;command3;command4}
or, if you're using the settings editor, put them on separate lines.
If you'd rather create an alias that waits until it recieves certain text from the MUD before it activates the next command, then that's possible too but a little more complicated. |
