Wow! Nice catch! Yeah I had my own Send-function. I made the script in python and converted it to Lua. Totally missed that, thanks!

Have you made your own Send function by any chance? Try changing the alias one to world.Send and see if that makes a difference.

Hi,

I'm unable to resolve my issue where I have an alias that sends its own input to the world. It seems to fire off itself even though I'm using the Send() function.

The alias looks like:
<alias
name="DoMovement"
script="Move"
match="^n$|^s$|^w$|^e$|^ne$|^nw$|^se$|^sw$|^u$|^d$"
regexp="y"
enabled="y"
sequence="20"
keep_evaluating="n"
></alias>

Where the implementation is:

function Move(name, input, wildcards)
Note(input)
Send(input)
end

And my output using trace is:
TRACE: Matched alias DoMovement
TRACE: Executing alias script "Move"
e
TRACE: Matched alias DoMovement
TRACE: Executing alias script "Move"
e
TRACE: Matched alias DoMovement

What am I doing wrong? :)
