| Hi, I want to use simple command, as below:
<triggers>
<trigger enabled="y" group="exercise" keep_evaluating="y" omit_from_output="y" regexp="n"
send_to="14"
sequence="100" match="something is wrong">
<send>look</send>
<send sen_to="12">SomethingWrong()</send>
</trigger><triggers>
<script>
sub SomethingWrong()
......
but it doesn't work. Why doesn't Mush support mixed command like this? | | Top |

| For a start, if it supported it, the GUI interface would need considerable change to allow for multiple "send" boxes, and multiple "send-to" types.
Anyway, it isn't necessary. By using send-to-script you can send to mixed places, for example:
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
group="exercise"
keep_evaluating="y"
match="something is wrong"
omit_from_output="y"
send_to="14"
sequence="100"
>
<send>
Send ("look) -- send to MUD
ColourNote ("white", "red", "something is wrong") -- send to output
SomethingWrong() -- call script
</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>
I wouldn't mix things around like this anyway - if you are calling a script function (SomethingWrong) why not just do everything in that?
In fact, if you are using send-to-script, then it is a bit confusing to have some scripting in the trigger, and some scripting somewhere else.
If you prefer to use a script file then do all your scripting in that, eg.
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
group="exercise"
keep_evaluating="y"
match="something is wrong"
omit_from_output="y"
script="SomethingWrong"
sequence="100"
>
</trigger>
</triggers>
Now by putting "SomethingWrong" in the Script box, the trigger itself doesn't need to send anything anywhere. Then in your script file, you can have this:
function SomethingWrong (name, line, wildcards, styles)
Send ("look) -- send to MUD
ColourNote ("white", "red", "something is wrong") -- send to output
-- other stuff here
end -- function
See http://mushclient.com/scripting - that explains scripting in a fair bit of detail. |

| Yes, the GUI interface will be complicated.
