trigger text:
^\((.*?)\/(.*?)hp\|(27\d\d\d)m\|(.*?)mv\)\((.*?)\)\<(.*?) coins\>\(\#(.*?)\)

Don't know if the syntax is actually correct, wrote this off the top of my head, but it IS possible, using regex, to match on 27 and 3 digits, which means that this'll match on any number between 27000 and 27999...
Some people shout "script, script!" way too early :p
I like scripts a lot myself, but regex is really powerful, and if you can do it with just an expression, why write a script?

When the mana drops below, say about, 28000, I want to be able to trance about 7 times. WITHOUT scripting, can it be done with Triggers?


With recent versions of MUSHclient this can now be done just a trigger with inline scripting. I suppose it is still scripting, but it is simple enough.

Say your prompt was:

(32715/32715hp|29075m|30000mv)

You could make a trigger match on:

(*/*hp|*m|*mv)*

That makes the mana wildcard 3 (third asterisk). So put in the send text:


if CLng (%3) < 28000 then
  Send "trance"
  Send "trance"
  Send "trance"
  Send "trance"
  Send "trance"
  Send "trance"
end if



Then mark the trigger "send to script". That should do it.

Ah.. yes, I think the cint() is limited to 32000 or so
and the amount of coins you are carrying are way beyond that
Replace:
      world.setvariable "CurrentCoins", cint(arrWildCards(6))

With:
      world.setvariable "CurrentCoins", arrWildCards(6)


Or delete it completely if you dont believe you are going to use it

go into your config screen in MC, and click the scripting menu
and choose scripts, then make sure the 'Enable script' is active
scripting language is VBscript and select a location and filename
for your script.

click edit script and paste the following:

'---------------------------Storm Dragon Code--------------------------------

sub PromptParse (strTriggerName, trig_line, arrWildCards)
  select case lcase(StrTriggerName)
    case "install"
      world.addtrigger "SendPrompt", "(*/*hp|*m|*mv)(*)<* coins>(#*)", "", 1, -1, 0, "", "PromptParse"
    case "sendprompt"             '    1 2   3  4    5  6         7  - These are the wildcards
      world.setvariable "CurrentHP", cint(arrWildCards(1))
      world.setvariable "MaxHP", cint(arrWildCards(2))
      world.setvariable "CurrentMana", cint(arrWildCards(3))
      world.setvariable "CurrentVitality", cint(arrWildCards(4))
      world.setvariable "CurrentCoins", cint(arrWildCards(6))
    case else
  end select
' Below this line we can insert the subroutines that have to be checked everytime a prompt shows up.
  call ManaCheck
end sub

sub ManaCheck
  if world.getvariable("CurrentMana") <= world.getvariable("MinMana") then
    world.send "Trance"
    world.send "Trance"
    world.send "Trance"
    world.send "Trance"
    world.send "Trance"
    world.send "Trance"
    world.send "Trance"
  end if
end sub
'-----------------------End Storm Dragon Code--------------------------------


Ok.. we are done with the script, save it and return to the config screen
notice just above the help button, it says 'Script Prefix' it should say /
change it only if you use that character in the game (I mean when you start a line with it)
click the ok button and type the following into your command line

/promptparse "install", "", ""
/world.setvariable "MinMana", 23000

where the last number is the minimum mana you have before starting the trancing

Gosh, thanks.

Anywho, can it be done by just making MUSHClient, if it sees a specific number or a number below a certain number, do a command string?

Only reason I ask is because I cannot script.

Can one set a trigger so that when someone reaches a certain amount of Mana, they will trance?

Like so:

Prompt1
(32715/32715hp|29075m|30000mv)(525)<1846628776 coins>(#21002)

When the mana drops below, say about, 28000, I want to be able to trance about 7 times. WITHOUT scripting, can it be done with Triggers?
