someone that plays my mud made this script for checkin out %s on landing certain things like stabs/charges/bashes. was wondering if anyone could convert this zmud script (i think) to work with mushclient?

I know this could have been done a little simpler, with using inside trigger processing, and leaving out the help, and onplugininstall, but I have a standard plugin layout in all the plugins I create, they all typically use out of the trigger or alias functions, even if it is something simple like showing 2 notes, so I can easily replace it just by replacing the desired function.

I had a typo within it


function landbash(sName,sLine,wildcards)
local landedbashes
local totalbashes
landedbashes = tonumber(GetVariable("landbash")) + 1
totalbashes = tonumber(GetVariable("totalbash")) + 1
====SetVariable("lansbash",landedbashes)
SetVariable("totalbash",totalbashes)
Note("This session you've landed " .. GetVariable("landbash") .. " out of " .. GetVariable("totalbash") .. " bashes (" .. GetVariable("bashpercentage") .. "% landed)")
end -- landbash


the line beginning with the equal siigns should be...
SetVariable("landbash",landedbashes)

I had an S in place of the D in the first "land"

That will fix the problem I believe.

It's Lua, but easy enough to understand if you know other programming languages, and easy to learn anyway. :)

Onoitsu2, you can save yourself a bit of typing by using the "var" idea, where you can replace:


landedbashes = tonumber(GetVariable("landbash")) + 1


by:


landedbashes = tonumber(var.landbash) + 1


Similarly, replace:


SetVariable("landbash",landedbashes)


by:


var.landbash = landedbashes



You can automate that entire process by using the internal Notepad's Search -> Global Replace dialog, in 2 steps (one for getting a variable, and one for setting it):


Find pattern: GetVariable%s*%(%s*"([%a%d_]+)"%s*%)
Replacement:  var.%1

Find pattern: SetVariable%s*%(%s*"([%a%d_]+)"%s*,(.*)%)
Replacement: var.%1 = %2


For example, after running those 2 replacements, one of your functions now looks like this:


require "var" -- pull in the "var" code

function missbash(sName,sLine,wildcards)
local missedbashes
local totalbashes
missedbashes = tonumber(var.missbash) + 1
totalbashes = tonumber(var.totalbash) + 1
var.missbash = missedbashes
var.totalbash = totalbashes
Note("This session you've missed " .. var.missbash .. " out of " .. var.totalbash .. " bashes (" .. var.bashpercentage .. "% landed)")
end -- missbash

You can also save a bit of typing, as Lua automatically coerces strings into numbers where required, eg.


missedbashes = tonumber(var.missbash) + 1


... can become:


missedbashes = var.missbash + 1


Having got that far, you can eliminate the local variables altogether:


function missbash(sName,sLine,wildcards)
var.missbash = var.missbash + 1
var.totalbash = var.totalbash + 1
Note("This session you've missed " .. var.missbash .. " out of " .. var.totalbash .. " bashes (" .. var.bashpercentage .. "% landed)")
end -- missbash


Thus you have just saved a lot of typing. :)

I am using 3.74 still, and somewhat do not wish to upgrade and use all of those additional libraries, as MANY of my plugin users, use versions 3.74 - 3.78, typically at least, probably 3 of the 20 or so constantly get the latest version of MC.

But thanks for the tip, if I can ever convince ALL of the users of my plugins to upgrade then I will change my methods. But that is probably not going to happen, cause they were lucky to have been able to install the version used at all, due to several using it in their workplaces, and others from college campuses, which do not allow installer programs to be run via 3rd party software.

Disclaimer: I haven't been fully following this conversation. However, I'm not sure how Nick's suggestion is dependent on a version of MUSHclient. It's just a basic rephrasing of the Lua code, and doesn't use new libraries. Why would it require an upgrade?

You are right, that technique has always been available. The later versions make it easy to put into a separate file, but by incorporating a short function into your existing scripts you can use it in all of them. See this post for a description of the original idea:
