Im trying to configure this addon for 3kingdoms.

I do not have xp on the bar it comes from typing XP and then I get this:

You have 14,725,973 total xp.
You need 49,027 experience to achieve your next level.
You have 1,975,973 to spend.

XP Gain for the last 30 minutes: 61,605
At this rate you will level in 23 minutes

I seem to be having tons of issues in regards to adapting plugins to this MUD.

I even tried adapting the autohealer and failed.

theres no way to convert it to a % as the number gets lower, the bar gets higher? We don't have the max exp shown on our MUD it only shows how much you have to go till the next lvl :(

Well we still need to know the maximum right? Because it has to be 5678 out of <something>. Once you know that it is easy.

Let's say the maximum is 10000. If you have 5678 to next level, then you have done 4322. So normally I would supply 4322 (that is, the maximum minus the current), and 10000, so the bar shows you as 43.22 percent done.

But you could just not subtract, so it would show 5678/10000 and then get lower and lower.

Ok, I believe that would work but your Health Bar plugin and this plugin do not have the same default prompt. How could I change the prompt for the XP plugin to be "<%h/%H hp %m/%M m %v/%V mv %x/%X xp>" ?

So %X is xp_to_level?

And if you were at level 2, and levelled at 10000 XP, and had 9000 XP, then it would show:


9000/1000


Because you have 1000 to go?

It seems to me then that max_xp = 5000, because we are always trying to get to 5000. And current_xp is 5000 minus the wildcard (eg. 5000 - 1000 = 4000). Thus we now get:

4000/5000



function do_prompt (name, line, wildcards, styles)

  current_xp = 5000 - tonumber ((string.gsub (wildcards [5], ",", "")))
  max_xp = 5000
  
  draw_bar ()
  
end -- do_prompt


If that doesn't work throw in a print statement or two to see what the figures are.

Ok, the MUD I play on runs off of a 5000 xp per level system where it's ALWAYS 5000 xp to level and the script runs off of the assumption that your prompt will output the xp you need to get in order to level when you type %X into the prompt. In the MUD I'm using, %x gives your current xp and %X gives 5000-current xp. How could I change the xp bar so that it's full at 5000, not at %X?

If you have a different prompt, or find your experience out in a different way, you would need to change the trigger.

You got the trigger to match before, because it caused an error message on the commas. In what way does it "still won't work"?

Do you still get the error message? Or does it simply not display the experience bar? You have to give a bit more information than "it doesn't work" if you want any help.

If you get an error message please post it.

If you are still getting the error message make sure you changed the two lines I said, and reinstalled the plugin. If you didn't reinstall the plugin it is still using the old code.

Most MUDs are different in the way they display prompt lines. You can't expect the plugin to just display information it doesn't actually have, or in a format it doesn't understand.

It hasn't alllowed for commas in the numbers. Inside the plugin, change lines 135 and 136 from:


  current_xp = tonumber (wildcards [4])
  max_xp = tonumber (wildcards [5]) + current_xp


to:


  current_xp = tonumber ((string.gsub (wildcards [4], ",", "")))
  max_xp = tonumber ((string.gsub (wildcards [5], ",", ""))) + current_xp


Make sure you reinstall the plugin afterwards (hit the Reinstall button).

That worked for me on your prompt. However I note that both numbers in your example are the same (3,986,839,823,207). As currently written that displays a half-way through experience bar, as it thinks you have 3,986,839,823,207 xp to go.

It seems a bit strange that you are exactly half-way through the level (or completely through, if it is xp/total xp). You may need to remove the "+ current_xp" from the second line. Are you sure you are displaying current xp / maximum xp? Otherwise the bar will always be either half-full or completely full.

The original plugin matched this prompt:


<28hp 100m 102mv 2875/6325xp>


(The numbers may differ).

Yours doesn't look anything like that. For one thing, you aren't showing experience at all.

How can it draw an experience bar, if the prompt doesn't have xp figures in it?
