Script help ?
 
Alright. I need to make a script, but I don't know where to start. I've been using Zmud for a long time but never really got into #var's, #trigs etc. What I'm wanting to do is first, make a map of the area's that I'll be going to with room names. After that, it would look like this

You ask the High Priest for a quest
The HighPriest of the Major City says 'Thank you JimBob, our treasurers have lost a valuable item, a crown jewel. Our sorceress has pinpointed its location somewhere in the Forgotten Forest. Look in the general vicinity of A few fallen trees.

At that point, I need to figure out, how to make it goto that specific room, this is where I get lost as there are many mobs in that area with the same name in different locations, so I need it to be able to read the room name and move acordingly.

I.E.
wear glit
You hold a glittering white stone in your hand

c nexus earl
A glittering white stone glows brilliantly then vanishes
A shimmering gate rises from the ground.

enter gate
You step in the gate and find yourself someplace else

A few studded pine trees

<Insert room description>

A large knight known as Earl is here
There is a large bear lurking around the corner
[Exits: NSEW]


Could someone atleast give me some pointers on where to start ? How to start mapping Embarassed Heh, I feel like a newb (Which I am when it comes to scripts/triggers)

Also needs to be able to pause and account for lost concentration and fails. And for being out of mana if I fail too much and go and regen, and resume again.

Any and all help is greatly appriciated.
