MUSHclient scripting

Description of MUSHclient world function: world.ReverseSpeedwalk


Name ReverseSpeedwalk
Type Method
Summary Reverses a speed walk string
Prototype BSTR ReverseSpeedwalk(BSTR SpeedWalkString)
Description

Reverses a supplied string based on the rules for "speed walking". See EvaluateSpeedwalk for a detailed description of those rules.

For example:

4n 3e s u w d LW

When reversed, this would become:

LE U E D N 3W 4S

If you supply a "special string" in parentheses, then the order of the words in parentheses is reversed. This lets you do special actions (eg. NE for NorthEast), and supply the reverse direction.

For example:

4n (se/nw)(in/out)

This would become:

(out/in) (nw/se) 4S

VBscript example
world.note world.ReverseSpeedwalk ("4n3esuwdLW(ne/sw)")
Jscript example
world.note(world.ReverseSpeedwalk ("4n3esuwdLW(ne/sw)"));
PerlScript example
$world->note($world->ReverseSpeedwalk ("4n3esuwdLW(ne/sw)"));
Python example
world.note(world.ReverseSpeedwalk ("4n3esuwdLW(ne/sw)"))
Lua example
Note(ReverseSpeedwalk ("4n3esuwdLW(ne/sw)"))
Returns The supplied string, with the speedwalk directions reversed as described above.
If there is an error in the speed walk string then the first character of the returned string will be an asterisk ("*"), and the rest will be an English error message.
