Hi.. I'm trying to get a system setup for Achaea.. I need to be able to accept a tell from someone, check their name against a list of acceptable people, and then execute commands based on that name.

right now i've got..
Trigger:
pattern: (%w) tells you, ~"Summon.~"
commands:

#var incsummon %1


#if %ismember( @incsummon, @validsummons) {rescuesummon @incsummon} {


  tell @incsummon I'm afraid you're not permitted to use Puppet Summoning.


  #unvar incsummon


  }

Variable:
Name: Validsummons
Value: Olath

Variable:
Name: Olath
Value: 74315

Alias:
Name: rescuesummon
Commands:

tell @incsummon Standby for Puppetry Summon


get @%1 from backpack

The rescue summon alias is evaluating to @Olath when activated via the trigger, yet "rescuesummon Olath" evaluates correctly.. Anybody? :)

"The rescue summon alias is evaluating to @Olath"

It is for the get line:

get @%1 from backpack

As %1 is the value of @incsummon..

get @{@incsummon} from backpack

In this case @incsummon is Olath

get @{Olath} from backpack

Olath has a value of 74315

get 74315 from backpack

//

You #unvar incsummon in the trigger then
try and reference it in the alias.

You need to refer to %1 in the alias.

//

I'm not sure what you are trying to do with
the backpack and rescue summon.

It appears your troubles might be just
what you want to resolve to a value.

#TRIGGER {(%w) tells you, ~"Summon.~"} {#IF %ismember(%1,@validsummons) {rescuesummon %1} {#NOOP Ignore illegal request}}

#ALIAS rescuesummon {cast summon %1}

That should work.

In the trigger, change the #IF line to:
#if %ismember( %1, @validsummons) {rescuesummon %1} {tell %1 I'm afraid you're not permitted to use Puppet Summoning.;#unvar incsummon}
See if that helps.
