Trouble wih gagging, boy does that sound wrong ;-)
 
Hey, I am trying to set up a GAG for Achaea. The big problem I run into is, uhm... I can't get it to work. I ahve read the help files and tutorials, but just can't wrap my mind around the syntax.

I want to use the gag while slow-walking in Achaea. Basically when it goes too fast, Achaea sends out a line that is
2031h, 2220m ex-Now now, don't be so hasty!
I want to gag that line, so I tried:
#GA Now now, don't be so hasty
exactly as written there, but the line still pops up. Then I tried the same thing, but with don't be so hasty. Then I looked in my settings window, and found no trigger or mention of gag, etc. Then I became afraid. Then I wrote this post. I am sure I am messing the syntax up, no doubt, but my cro-magnon brain cannot figure out where. So my question is, how do I gag the line
2021h, 2220m ex-Now, now don't be so hasty
Note: I did not use #gagon or #gagoff because I got the impression this would just shut off all the lines from the MUD, which i don't want. I tried searching for it on the forums, but I got a weird Microsoft Database error code, which I have gotten on several other searches. Thanks for reading my ranting post. [:d]

Hrm it works for me, but there does seem to be a small error in the parsing of it. So you are better off just doing what that syntax of #GAG does internally...that is make a trigger.

#TR {Now now, don't be so hasty!$} {#GAG}

Thanks so much! It was driving me crazy. That seems to have worked. Thanks again.
