 Posted: Thu Oct 13, 2011 12:13 pm Post subject: triggering on table formatted lines |
 |
|
I am trying to assign a table of results from mud to different variables and do something with them. This is for healing the group. When I type group, I want all the group members to be automatically assign to aliases, and their status all saved to some list. So if there are only 2 group members, 2 sets of aliases are created. If there are 10, then 10 sets are created.
Here is a sample output from the mud when "group" is entered.
| Code: |
Member Hits Move Position
-------------------------------
Bob perfect rested standing
Tom v.good exhausted sitting
400H 120V 1001X 10C Exits:N>
|
What I need is to start trigger when group is entered, and it picks each group member's info into variables or list, and assign aliases to each of the members.
The problem I have is I don't have a fix pattern to trigger the lines (since it is a table like info and all of the words are/might be different).
I would like to be able to assign the results to variables like the following
#var player1 Bob
#var player1_status perfect
#var player2_move rested
#var player2 Tom
#var player2_status v.good
#var player2_move exhausted
Once I have the infos I need, I can set aliases to keys based on their status and do whatever I need to them.
As for the code itself, I've tried a few things but it didn't work out. I know I need to set #class triggers when group is pressed, and do the matching on the table and #class kill when the prompt kicks back in. I'm having problem detecting the table correctly and splitting them into individual variables. Also the empty line before the prompt also causes a problem.
Thanks. |

Try something like:
| Code: |
#var groupinfo 0
#act {Member Hits Move Position}
{
#var groupinfo 1;
}
#act {%1 %2 %3 %4}
{
#if {$groupinfo}
{
#var player[%1][hits] %2;
#var player[%1][move] %3;
#var player[%1][pos] %4;
}
}
#act {^$}
{
#var groupinfo 0
}
|
To see Bob's health use: #showme $player[Bob][hits]
You can load and unload it using a class if you don't want to keep it in memory. |

Hi Scandum,
Thank you for the code. I have a problem with the code.
The #action {%1 %2 %3 %4}seems to take the spaces in between literally. What if the spaces in between varies? It seems more of a tab between the words.
So the $player have the following values
player={{}{{hits}{}{move}{Bob}}}
The player's name have 2 space at the front. Bob is actually %3 instead of %1. The question now is how do I ignore white spaces/tabs in between words in my action trigger?
Thanks again for fast reply.
Edit
I found the answer using the search button on spaces and tabs.
{ +}%1 works very well. |
