Make gauges update automatically

Post by jwrobbs »

I've been going thru the material about Geyser: https://wiki.mudlet.org/w/Manual:Geyser#Geyser.Gauge

I have a trigger (in triggers) that stores the numbers I need.
I have a script (in scripts) that creates and styles the gauges.

But the gauges only update when I save the script even though I know the variables are changing. What did I do wrong? What did I miss?

did you add code in triggers that use those numbers to update the gauge like e.g:

Code: Select all

hp_bar:setValue(current_health, max_health)
?

No, it's in the script.

That fixed it. I swore I read that the scripts got processed on every line. I assume that is incorrect.

Scripts only get processed on startup and when you save them - it is triggers that get processed for every line.
