Room exits to variable
|
I would like to capture existing room exits to a variable, the mud I am on uses the follow format:
Obvious exits: -N -S -E -W
I have tried #tr {Obvious exits: (*)} {#var exits %1} this will only capture -N. I would like exits to be -N -S -E -W.
How do I create at pattern to grab everything in that line? |

zMUD replaces the %1 with the exact text that was matched before running this script. In this case, this means that your #VAR command would end up something like this:
#VAR exits -N -S -E -W
This is incorrect syntax for the #VAR command and confuses zMUD. What you need to do is to surround the %1 with curly braces, like {%1}, to let zMUD know that all of that goes together. |
