Gagging

Post by Zenock »

Ok I have a question...

From the Mud I get 4 lines...

Line1
Line2
Line3
Line4

Line1 can appear indepedently of the other 3 lines. When it does I want it to be shown. However when it appears with the other 3 lines, I want all 4 lines to be gagged. I have tried many different methods to do this but none of them seem to work quite right. This has to be something other people have run into so I would appreciate ideas on how to make this happen.

Also is there a way to open a profile to work on scripting etc without actually connecting to the mud?

Thanks,
Z

This can easily be done with a single multi state trigger. Make a multiline AND trigger, set the line delta appropriately and then put those 4 lines as 4 seperate patterns in the correct order. The trigger will fire and run the script when all 4 conditions are true. Then you simply gag the 4 lines (-> moveCursor() and deleteLine())

Simply leave the connection info empty for the profile.

Hello everyone!

I am having some trouble understanding how to use the deleteLine() function.

Let me explain the situation, it is quite simple. I wear a watch in my game that chimes at 10 seconds to every minuet, I want to gag that watch so it stops annoying me. I would also like to use this same trigger to gag future unwanted text from the mud if that is at all possible.

the syntax that I receive is:
Your watch chimes, 10 seconds till the minute!
A possible second string would be:
for help or commands, type: help
I am really looking for a step by step/click by click tutorial on gaging this text. I have read the manual and reviewed many posts on many sites and I am still confused. :| Please, can someone help me understand this?

Thanks in advance!

Just replace the whole script with: deleteLine()

Thank you so much! :mrgreen: I cant tell you how long I have been working on that. I was completely baffled as to how something so strait forward could be so complex. I feel like a true idiot now. although, you have to admit that the example in the manual isn't exactly clear.
