Yes it is possible, do a bit of a search in this forum, a few people have done similar things, they might give you ideas. I think there was a recent post about detecting enemies and hitting them, and a while back there was a "wilderness walker" which walked in various directions.

Basically you need some triggers, eg. one to match "is there an enemy" - whatever that is for you, and another "my shield has run out". I would start with those two, and at least automate that part.

You can test these triggers without actually going into battle by using a little-documented feature - the "debug simulated world input" window. Go to a quiet part of the MUD, and then hit Shift+Ctrl+F12.

Then type in what you expect to see (better have made an exact copy from an earlier battle), eg.

"The Orc lunges at you"

Hit <enter> and it will pretend that that came from the MUD - then check that the trigger fires and does what you want it to. The debug window remembers what you entered from time to time, so if the trigger doesn't work you can fix it, and try again.

Make sure you put a "newline" in the debug window or the trigger won't fire. One way is to use Ctrl+Enter when typing in your test text, another is to enter a newline in hex, eg. \0A
