[2.05] #ALARM with #COND
 
I can't quite figure out an alarm does not activate when followed by #COND in this test. I have seen such an alarm activate properly when a session opens, and everything is created correctly according the package editor. However when checking with #ALARM it shows a negative time till firing.

1. Launch CMud
2. Close Sessions Window (ESC)
3. Enter "#ALARM {*1} {hi};#COND {not happening} {yep didn't happen} {manual}" at the command line without the quotes
4. Patiently wait for a while
5. Enter "#ALARM" at the command line without the quotes

Does the #ALARM command still show negative times? It shouldn't in 2.07.

Alarms are not well integrated with #CONDITION. This is because normally the Condition code doesn't fire until a line from the MUD is received.

#ALARM actually reports the alarm as disabled, and #TRIGGER reports there are no triggers. So the alarm is sitting there disabled.

I played with it somemore and ended up getting extremely wierd results. I think some test along the line did irrepairable damage to my installation. I will have to get back to it after a reinstalling 2.07
