| i've searched and searched but i've not had any luck figuring out how to simply check and see if one of my triggers is enabled or disabled.
I have a block of triggers that are all grouped under the same name that get turned on and off by an alias. It makes sense I cant just check and see if they are all on or off without some fancy footwork, but I figured it would be easy to just check if any one of them was.

Note("My trigger is enabled.")
else -- not enabled (GTO would have returned 0)
Note("Bummer. It ain't workin'.")
end
There is also the GetTriggerInfo() call, which is a bit older and does no specify the information by the 'name' of the setting, but by an integer. Advantage though is that booleans return actual booleans with that one.
if GetTriggerInfo("my_trigger", 8) then
Note("My trigger is enabled.")
else -- not enabled
Note("Bummer. It ain't workin'.")
end
Also, remember that the above samples do no error-checking. If the trigger doesn't exist, or some other problem happens, the return value is nil in both cases. | | Top |

| before I give myself more headaches...
if im checking for a trigger that isnt in the plugin that the above script example you gave me, will that cause problems and if so how do I get by it, beyond moving everything into one plugin which isnt really what I want..
Otherwise
if (GetTriggerOption("fishscript", "enabled") == 1) then
CallPlugin ("126d9061f9758498c878a204", "MsgNote", "auto_fish is ON", "White", "Green")
else
CallPlugin ("126d9061f9758498c878a204", "MsgNote", "auto_fish is OFF", "White", "Green")
end
always returns off, despite me toggling it over and over. |

| Try GetPluginTriggerInfo(). The first parameer is the unique id of the plugin you also use for CallPlugin(). As for the details, see the help function inside MUSHclient.
Be warned though; hard-coding such relationships between your plugins carelessly means that they become very hard to use separately, seemingly 'random' breaking and so forth. If your code is intended to be part of a bigger whole, consider using Lua require() and include() commands instead. (Example: You have a system that handles your combat. But a plugin that only deals with tracking illnesses has no use i the main module isn't loaded, and this will only confuse your users.) | | Top |
