how to tell ZMUD that the command "#walk @room_num" has finished ?
|
in using mapper,i want to do something after the #walk finished,i don't konw how to tell ZMUD that the "#walk @room_num" has finished.
for exemple
if i want to show a message after i enter the room
simply i write
#walk 16;#show entered the room
but the #show command always work before i enter the room
so if i want to make a trigger using the message after enter the room,it always works at a wrong time. |

You are looking for the special alias onwalkend. The mapper call this alias when it completes the speed walk.

if i am in #1 room
#walk 20;#show i have entered 20th room
The command #show works indeed after #walk 20.
in fact i need sever seconds to through the path.but the #show command display the message before i realy arrive the room.
maybe like this?
#walk 20;#wa 1000;#show i have entered 20th room
but if there are so many rooms i want to check ,it will cost a long time to wait

Enter this at at the command line
| Code: |
#CLASS {System|AutoMapperAll}
#ALIAS onwalkend {#EXEC {@WalkEnd};WalkEnd=""}
#VAR WalkEnd {} {}
#CLASS 0 |
Now your example walks become
#walk 16;WalkEnd="#SHOW entered the room"
#walk 20;WalkEnd="#SHOW i have entered 20th room"
I made it slightly more complex to give an additional protection against doing the commands a second time. |

Oh! You have to mention a version right off the bat if you are not using the current version, otherwise we are all likely will suggest things that didn't get added to zMud until 2 years after the version you are using.
Since you are using 5.55 I can't really help you solve this problem short of an extremely complex script. I would suggest upgrading at least to the current 7.21 which has the feature I have been suggesting. 7.21 is still supported in these forums, but the zMud product will not be developed and further. It may be in your best interests to move straight to the latest public version of CMud. |

The short answer is nowhere. The help files have all been long updated and forum threads are hard to come by. You really should upgrade to the latest version, or to CMUD.

Yeah, just upgrade to zmud 7.21
be sure to keep a backup of your old 5.55
I had some character import problems going to 7.21 without goign thru 6.x first.
But once I ironed it all out, 7.21 has been good, new functions and features you will appreciate, the mapper auto config works better too. |
