#IF command
 
ok how do you use multiple variables in an #IF command? i play Achaea and im trying to setup some triggers so that it will input a command into zmud IF various variables are either the value of 1 or 0.
eg right now i have:


#if (@ACP/bal = 1 AND @ACP/eq = 1 AND @NonACP/Ratting/rats > 0 AND @NonACP/Balance/legs = 1 AND @NonACP/Balance/rightarm = 1 AND @NonACP/Balance/leftarm = 1) (cmod rat)

but obviously it doesnt work and it decides to 'cmob rat' anyway. Please help if you know what im on about and how to help.

@ACP/bal
@ACP/eq
@NonACP/Ratting/rats
@NonACP/Balance/legs
@NonACP/Balance/rightarm
@NonACP/Balance/leftarm

Isn't / a division operator?
Have you tried renaming the variables to NOT include the / operator?

with my other settings doing @something/somethingelse/yetanotherthing/variable would target the @variable variable in the folders something/somethingelse/yetanotherthing settings folder. Otherwise if you have a trigger setup to change the value of a variable it will just do it in the root, ie not change the variable in the designated folder

what im trying to say is that:

@ACP/bal is not the name of the variable: @bal is, but its in the ACP folder

OK. But for expressions doesn't the default operator have precedence? I.E. your #IF command is reading the / as an operator and not a class. Also, since you're not changing the variable, do you need to specify the class in an #IF?


Just trying to learn. Thanks for your patience with my questions. Smile

ok yeah i see where your coming from, but i think that there needs to be a space before and after the / to be an operator.

Just my thoughts. Trying to learn too :D

Oh, duh. Multiple values for a duplicate variable. Looking through the Help files, I think your classes were backwards. Will this work?

#if {(@bal/ACP)=1 AND (@eq/ACP)=1 AND (@rats/Ratting/NonACP)>0 AND (@legs/Balance/NonACP)=1 AND (@rightarm/Balance/NonACP)=1 AND (@leftarm/Balance/NonACP)=1} {cmod rat}


I'm at work with no access to zMUD otherwise I'd test it.

No, he had the classes around the right way. When using the logical operators, such as AND IF OR, you must encase each expression to be tested by a set of parentheses:

#if ((@ACP/bal = 1) AND (@ACP/eq = 1) AND (@NonACP/Ratting/rats > 0) AND (@NonACP/Balance/legs = 1) AND (@NonACP/Balance/rightarm = 1) AND (@NonACP/Balance/leftarm = 1)) {cmod rat}

So it was about the (), good to know. Now, why do the Help file examples show the classes the other way (root -> class -> subclass)?

#ALIAS ./class2/ex {example2}
#SHOW @./test
class2/ex

class2/ex


It is like that:

@NonACP/Balance/rightarm

Root: NonACP
Class: Balance
Subclass: @rightarm

Is that what you mean?

I read Subclass @rightarm and was thinking the exact opposite of Subclass @NonACP. Yet another reason why I shouldn't try to use reason at 4 am! Mental spoonerism.
