| Well that might work but I can forsee problems. What is going to force the command out exactly? I thought what I saw above was a note, but you are saying it is a command, is that right?
If you store a command for later, to be sent when you receive something (like a line), imagine what happens if there is no MUD output at all, and you type something like "inventory".
Now your OnPluginSend puts that in a table, and waits for a line to arrive from the MUD. So, it seems to you that your command has done nothing.
Maybe if you only did that if "packet" was not empty, then this would work, as you would assume another packet will arrive shortly. |

| | Ah, no, I guess I wasn't clear. What split the prompt was a command echo. My idea was to uncheck the "Echo My Input In" option in the commands configuration, then, while still allowing commands to pass, keep track of what commands did pass (using information from OnPluginSend) and then Note them when I receive a complete line to simulate a command echo without a risk of it splitting prompts. | | Top |

| It turns out that won't be necessary after all. I think I mentioned earlier that I planned on allowing the subnegotiations that create a second prompt to pass to output. The problem before was I was trying to make a single line prompt from text that could possibly arrive divided in two packets, creating the possibility of a well timed note or command echo splitting up the prompt.
It turned out that creating a two line prompt by allowing the subnegotiation prompts to pass, in conjunction with combining incomplete subnegotiations with the next packet, eliminated the possibility of splitting the subnegotiation prompt, instead putting any would be splitters between the two prompts. It's still possible to split the first line of the prompt since I don't specifically check for incompleteness on it, but it's much rarer and of comparatively little consequence.
So, with that in mind I simply gag the two prompts and construct one with a ColourNote, and thanks to Mr. Gammon's code advice it's all lightning fast. Thanks for the help. | | Top |
