following and the map?
|
On my mud when I'm following someone it will say "You follow suchandsuch west." Now is there a way I can set it up so that the map will follow along too? Thanks for the help!!!

Use a #trigger matching the above line, and have it #MOVE you in the appropriate direction.

#trigger {You follow %w (%w).} {#move %1}

Take this one step further...I have an output on my MUD as follows:
JimBob leaves west.
You follow JimBob.
I have tried to set the trigger to go off on line 1, however, it will trigger anyone that leaves the room whether I'm following them or not. I have set the trigger to go off on line 2, however, it doesn't know what directly to go on.
I'm thinking that this would work (this trigger will go off when I originally begin to follow someone), however I"m at work and not able to try it:
#trigger {You begin to follow (*).} {#va leader %1}
#trigger {(*) leaves (*).} {#if %1=@leader} {#move %2}
What's the best way of setting this up? |

Multi-state trigger.
#trigger {(%w) leaves ({north|west|south|east}).} {}
#condition {You follow %w.} {#if ("%t1" = @leader) {#move %t2} {#noop not the leader}} {withinlines|param=1}
%t1...%t99 = all the captured pattern pieces from all the states of the trigger. If the %w in the #CONDITION were surrounded in parentheses, you could refer to it as %1 or %t3, for example. |

This worked wonderful until I was following something that have more than one word to its name, such as 'You follow the ugly man east.' Any ideas on how to fix this? Thank you :) |

hrmm
#var followdirections {north|south|east|west}
#trigger {You follow %* (%w).} {#if (%ismember(%1,@followdirections))} {#move %1}
try that?
if you got diagonals like NE/northeast or something add that to the followdirections var.
of course this will break for special exits like out, enter, etc... |
