Hi :)

I am hoping someone can assist. I want to be able to create a file that records my level gains. This is probably very easy but I don't even know where to start. The message I get from the mud/trigger is:

^Your gain is: (%d)/%d hp, (%d)/%d m, %d/%d mv %d/%d prac

All I want to do is get the actual line put into a text file named venka_gains.txt

The trigger works because I use it for changing into level gear but I can't figure out how to make it record in the text file.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciiated.

Take a look at the #file and #write commands. You'll want something like this:

#file 1 venka_gains.txt
#write 1 {%time(yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss) %line}

Hi :)

Ok I tried this but it's not recording the actual gains. Here's what it is recording in the text file:

2007-08-03 21:20:39 Opened venka_gains.txt as file 1
2007-08-03 21:32:42 Opened venka_gains.txt as file 1
2007-08-03 21:46:50 Opened venka_gains.txt as file 1

I really need it to record this line:

Your gain is: 14/178 hp, 1/111 m, 5/526 mv 5/5 prac

My trigger is: ^Your gain is: (%d)/%d hp, (%d)/%d m, (%d)/%d mv (%d)/%d prac

Sorry I am just not getting this :/

change %line to %trigger that should clear it up :P

also you should use
#CLOSE 1
as the last line in the script

#file 1 venka_gains.txt
#write 1 {%time(yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss) %trigger}
#close 1
