Table of selected Rooms?

drak · Post by **drak** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 4:10 am

Is there a way to get access to which rooms are selected on the mapper in a table or something inside a script?

I'm using linux (ubuntu) version 2.0

You can use the custom map event hooks via right click/select. But at the moment, there is nothing in the api to do it. Good idea though.

I tried adding a hook and perhaps i'm not doing it correctly, I've searched all over and can't find out why its not working. I went to windows and tried it and still can't get anything to show up on the menu.

When I lua at the command prompt:
addMapMenu("Favorites") -- will create a menu, favorites

the error in the console is:
LUA: ERROR running script Run lua script (Alias20) ERROR:[string "return addMapMenu("Favorites") --
will create..."]:1: attempt to call global 'addMapMenu' (a nil value)

Am I using a wrong version? Or am I missing something?

Thanks for replying

I've got my mapper working pretty good, with buttons for Find, Look, Edit mode, room stubs are auto showing and merging correctly, like the othe client I used to use... But it would be nice to do my own merge scripts and without creating a keyboard curser for the map, the mouse would help alot.

With regard to accessing the selected rooms, is this what your after? display(arg) is the bit your after I think.

And the right click menu thing is directly below it in the same post.

I get the feeling you are in the same place now, I was in a we while ago.

Yes, that looks like what I want but it doesn't seem to be working. It is like my version of Mudlet does not support the addMapMenu function. Is there something else I need to add to Mudlet?

This is the debug error when clicking on the save button to that script:

Lua syntax error:[string "---------------------------------------------..."]:6: attempt to call
global 'addMapMenu' (a nil value)
ERROR: Lua compile error. compiling script of script:EventHandler

What version do you use

drak · Post by **drak** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 4:45 pm

It is version Mudlet 2.0 June 12, 2011

Its the stock install from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from the repositories.

Yeah, upgrade mate.

You can either add the Sid repo (and hope for the best) or build from source.

I'm not too keen on the build from source path, but I can give it a try. Is there a zipped source somewhere? This doesn't seem to show a gzip file of the whole thing.

Where can I get the "Sid repo"?

You need to be aware that this is a Debian branch, so it may or may not work and can even cause problems.

Simply append the following to /etc/apt/sources.list

Code: Select all

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian sid main contrib non-free

Then:

Code: Select all

$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mudlet
