| I have been using mushclient for a little while now and i was just wondering if someone could help me with a trigger or a script as i am a complete newbie to it all.
what i need to do is activate a timer on an event and disable it on another event.
so....
a monster has a few wounds. (timer activated to send the "kick" command every 5 seconds.
a mosnster is in awful condition (timer stoped)
i have no idea how to use scripts so any help i would be thankful for.

| OK, you need a couple of triggers and a timer. Like this:
<timers>
<timer name="KickTimer" enabled="n" second="5" >
<send>kick</send>
</timer>
</timers>
<triggers>
<trigger
custom_colour="2"
enabled="y"
match="* has a few wounds"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>EnableTimer "KickTimer", vbTrue
ColourNote "white", "green", "Kick timer now enabled"</send>
</trigger>
<trigger
custom_colour="1"
enabled="y"
match="* is in awful condition"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>EnableTimer "KickTimer", vbFalse
ColourNote "white", "red", "Kick timer now disabled"</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>
You will need to enable scripting for this to work (VBscript language). No script file is needed.
Copy between the lines above and go to File -> Import -> Clipboard. This will import one timer and two triggers. You will need to modify the triggers to match exactly what the MUD sends. (eg. if it is really "a monster is in awful condition." then the trailing period is needed). I made the trigger with a wildcard (*) so that it would match on any monster name.
Then you can inspect the timer and triggers to see what they do. |

| | I don't know what it could be, maybe the triggers do not match? |

| | You have the timer disabled (enabled="n") - that means it is there but not doing anything. Edit the timer and check the "enabled" box. |
