Determining the Existance of a Room
|
I need to determine the following things about a room, perferably just knowing the direction of the exit.
From a room, 'Is this exit linked to a room, or is it just a stub?'
Does this exit lead out of this zone?
Is this room's cost= <The Do Not Enter> flag.
I'm trying to write something to travel in a random 'safe' direction if it doesnt see any mobs nearby in its target list
Also If you could help me write something to match the target list, that would be great. ;) I pretty much need it to capture and parse everything til the prompt I guess.
The target list could be done as a db variable so it can have keywords for the mobs it's capturing.
scan
Looking around you see:
BrokenOne, right here.
the vagabond, right here.
A stray dog, right here.
A stray dog, nearby to the north.
the cityguard, nearby to the east.

no mobs around

You peer intently north.
A stray dog, not far north.
