Prompt echo not working correctly.

The problem is, that mudlet isn't echoing my health after the prompt.
Just a test to try and figure this client out.
Here's my output:
3297h, 3894m cexkdb-
When it should be:
3297h, 3894m cexkdb-3297(100)h,
here's my code:
Code: Select all
RegExp: ^(\d+)h\, (\d+)m (\w+)\-$
-- Acquire current/previous health/mana
hp.prev = hp.cur
mp.prev = mp.cur
hp.cur = tonumber(matches[2])
mp.cur = tonumber(matches[3])
-- Acquire defences
local defs = matches[4]
aff.prone = (string.find (defs, 'p') ~= nil)
bal.bal = (string.find (defs, 'x') ~= nil)
bal.eq = (string.find (defs, 'e') ~= nil)
def.blind = (string.find (defs, 'b') ~= nil)
def.deaf = (string.find (defs, 'd') ~= nil)
def.phased = (string.find (defs, '@') ~= nil)
hp.per = math.floor (100 * ( hp.cur / hp.max ))
mp.per = math.floor (100 * ( mp.cur / mp.max ))
if hp.per > 66 then
hp.col = 'green'
elseif hp.per > 33 then
hp.col = 'gold'
elseif hp.per > 0 then
hp.col = 'red'
else
hp.col = 'silver'
end
if mp.per > 66 then
mp.col = 'green'
elseif mp.per > 33 then
mp.col = 'gold'
elseif mp.per > 0 then
mp.col = 'red'
else
mp.col = 'silver'
end
cecho ('green', 'black',hp.cur)
cecho ('silver','black','('..hp.per..')h,')
Here's some things in my scripts folder:
Code: Select all
color_table = {
green = {0, 128, 0},
lime = {0, 255, 0},
silver = {192, 192, 192},
}
function cecho (fgcol, bgcol, str)
fg(fgcol)
bg(bgcol)
echo (str)
resetformat()
end
Any suggestions?

couple of hints:
- resetFormat() - Lua is case sensitive
- check debug console for your scripting errors (button in the script editor)
- most common error is undefined global variables
- mudlet has its own cecho function

Thanks, how does the cecho function work? I don't see it in the help files at all.

Additionally, I get this error from the debug console. Can't copy from debug console but, it says that I'm attempting to index field '?' (a nil value) from line 690 of LuaGlobal.lua.
Code: Select all
689: function bg(name)
690: setBgColor(color_table[name][1], color_table[name][2], color_table[name][3])
691: end

That's because you broke the color_table by defining your down very small one which doesn't have the color you're asking for.
Use right-click to copy from debug

Shouldn't it have been fine because I was adding to the table? Maybe I missed something.

You didn't add to the table, you defined a new table with the same name -- thus overwriting the existing one. If you want to add to the table, you'd do like:
Code: Select all
color_table.green = {0, 128, 0}
color_table.lime = {0, 255, 0}
color_table.silver = {192,192,192}
Although I'm not sure if you really need to add new stuff, aren't those colors already represented?

no, those are the colors Nick Gammon and Zugg agreed to use in their clients that are not used in this client. Lime (bright green) is normally green, there's no actual green, and there's no silver, heh.
And thanks a ton for all of your help guys

The names aren't the same but a lot of standard colors are in the color_table. In Mudlet we call lime "green."
