Is that the whole script for tracking enemies? If not can you post the xml file? I did not post the required database or message printing functions, so this will not work by itself (it's essentially one module in my very large system). However, it is entirely complete in the way that it handles the...

Here's the basis for my system for handling enemy recognition: "areaEnemies" keeps a running list of known NPC enemies, based on your current area. --[[ Area Enemies Tracker ]] -- require "dba" require "messages" module("areaEnemies",package.seeall) -- Private...

What game is this for? Achaea? I have a DB with all the things I've hunted.

Hmm, all right. I figured that it would work fine, because looking at src.pro there are install parameters for both linux and windows, but it's easy enough to just run it from the src location.

I'm a fan of database storage myself, though you do have to take care to regulate your commits. Too many and your system slows down. Too few and you risk data loss.

I am now. I was trying to run it from it's install location (somewhere in /usr/local/) which was causing it to not find LuaGlobal. It was looking in the relative directory path from the src folder instead of using the locations stored in src.pro.

this should probably be fixed?

yep, looking into it, i can see errors regarding ziplua and lua file system. Any suggestion on how to get them easily on ubuntu? Is there a magic package somewhere? Looks like lua50 didn't include them. Edit: Nevermind, found them in the repos. now I get: [ OK ] - Lua module rex_pcre loaded [ OK ] -...

So I just finally got a working ubuntu box back up (yay!) and went to install mudlet on it. I followed the guide at http://wiki.mudlet.org/w/Compiling_Mudlet (which was by and large the easiest and most error free install guide for mudlet I've seen so far) and got mudlet up and working. When I attem...

This doesn't handle anything other than managing the connection and modules for GMCP. You can use this in a script to gain access to the information you need, but it doesn't do anything to help you retrieve and format it.

I'd stick with having them default to no scrollbars, with the option to enable them. Good idea though.
