Here is a fun plugin I wrote for Aardwolf. It doesn't require any separate modules, or even a particularly recent version of MUSHclient.

When you type "consider" it simply colours the output in a way which indicates how much the mobs you are in the room with are to be feared.

To use, copy between the lines and save as Consider_info.xml. Or, right-click and download this file:

http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/plugins/Aardwolf/Consider_info.xml

Then save that file in your MUSHclient plugins directory, and use File -> Plugins to install it.

Example output:

The numbers in brackets indicate the relative level ranges, compared to yours. You can customize the colours by editing the plugin and simply putting a different colour in the table next to each message.

Out of curiosity, is there a reason why you did it this way instead of simply making a message for each trigger? Looping to find the right message after you already know which message should appear based on the trigger pattern seems somewhat inefficient.

I must admit I can't think of a good reason, except for some sort of strange laziness that overtook me, that made me do more work than I needed to. :-O

The version below should be more efficient ...

Can you define "imported"? I don't think of that word when I think of loading plugins, so I think perhaps you did it wrong.

since i use 'true seeing' it's all strange.

there are the aura's noted before the mobs name.
and with shortflags, they are something like this:


(R) You would stomp A nibbling rabbit into the ground.
(H)(R) You would stomp A plump cook into the ground.
(R) You would stomp A nibbling rabbit into the ground.
(R) You would stomp A nibbling rabbit into the ground.


i haven't been able to check if i can implement something of the last 2 helps i had. but i'm going to try that.
just wanted to let you know i'm going to change this.

Message
(detection of prefixed auras is optional so both with and without need to be handled)

In this case, consider on a mob could bring up, e.g.
Quote:

(H)(R) You would stomp Verblain and Melox into the ground.

or it could bring up just
Quote:

You would stomp Verblain and Melox into the ground.


Basically, the patterns need to either not be front-anchored or account for every possible set of visible mob auras in either short or long forms. Khannon is suggesting to not front-anchor them for simplicity.

Quote:
(Animated) (A): Inanimate things given life and thought through magical means,
under their master's control (thus the (Charmed) aura).

(Angry): This flag shows on aggressive monsters when sensing anger.
(There is no short version of this flag.)

(Charmed) (C): Monsters with this aura are under the command of someone
else.

(Diseased) (D): A person or mob with this aura is diseased.

(Golden Aura) (G): Players and mobs with this aura are of good alignment.
Evil aligned players will get more xp for attacking mobs with this aura.

(Hidden) (H): The mob is hiding but has been detected.

(Invis) (I): The mob is invisible, and you have detection spells to see it.

(Marked) (X): A person or mob with this aura is under the effect of a
spell which makes one much more vulnerable to attacks. Be careful when
adventuring with this aura!

(Red Aura) (R): Players and mobs with this aura are of evil alignment.
Good aligned players will get more xp for attacking mobs with this aura.

(Stealth) (S): Those under the effect of the Oracle spell Eye of Warning
will see this flag next to stalking/stealthed players.

(Translucent) (T): A person or mob with this aura can pass through many
doors without bothering to open them or look for a key.

(Undead) (U): Necromancers sensing undead will see this flag on applicable
monsters.

(White Aura) (W): A person or mob with this aura is under the effect of
a powerful spell which reduces the damage taken from enemy attacks.
