I have a variable "battle" & i want it to change its value from 0 to 1. Value 1 must be set if i'm fighting now. In other cases value of the variable must be 0.
In what ways I can do it? Now I'm using triggers whick shot on difference between my battleprompt & "peace" prompt. But is there other ways? I don't thin that my desicion is the best...

PS Sorry for my English %)

You can toggle it upon

#VAR battle 1
in:
Attacking a monster
Monster attacking you
Special attacks that result in battle (backstab...)

#VAR battle 0
in:
You kill your attacker
You die
You flee

Otherwise the variable is being set/reset
each prompt you receive.

Thanks for you answer. But I'm using such structure, that turn off triggers when variable is changed. So when var Battle is 1 I use commands: #t- battledetect ; #t+ peacedetect.
And when var is 0 it looks like so:
#t+ battledetect ; #t- peacedetec.

This becomes an issue of "how automatic do you want the process?" Because quite literally you can do all this using aliases. But in using aliases you'll have to type when you want your variable to be 0 or 1. Otherwise, going off your prompt changes is probably the wisest method, its easier then dealing with conditionals that relate directly to battle as suggested above, and it's automatic. I'd stick with what you have unless its broken.
