Need help with a simple DB script
|
I'm kind-of a beginner with Zmud and was trying to create a member database for a guild on a game I play.
I created a database called members.db and gave it 2 fields:
'name' (text field)
'rank' (number field, minimum: 0, maximum: 5)
I then created the following trigger:
pattern:
^{([ }(*) whispers, "join" to you.{ ]}$
commands:
#dbload {me}
#va NewMember ""
#addkey NewMember {name="%1"|rank=1}
#new All @NewMember
#dbsave
I need to expand it, but I started with that, intending to further it as I figured out how stuff worked, but I'm stuck. The NewMember variable is properly defined when the pattern is matched, but nothing gets put into the DB. I'm probably making some extremely simple mistake, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

For the database to work the database window needs to be open. I have written a small tutorial which you might find useful. zMUD Database Tutorial

Wow, I don't think it mentions that anywhere in the help files.. Anyway, it works. I knew it'd be something stupid like that. Thanks a ton, and great tutorial too, by the way. :)
