| I was trying to write a plugin to extend/retract my wings, but it keeps saying "Your wings are currently retracted." and stops there, no matter what I do. Could someone help me?
Here's the plugin:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE muclient>
<!-- Saved on Thursday, June 19, 2008, 7:39 PM -->
<!-- MuClient version 4.27 -->
<!-- Plugin "wings" generated by Plugin Wizard -->
<muclient>
<plugin
name="wings"
author="Terry"
id="40cd49ff725c2a26ba6e80cb"
language="Lua"
purpose="To extend or retract my wings."
date_written="2008-06-19 19:38:58"
requires="3.18"
version="1.0"
>
</plugin>
<!-- Get our standard constants -->
<include name="constants.lua"/>
<!-- Aliases -->
<aliases>
<alias
match="^wings(| in| out)(| .*?)$"
enabled="y"
regexp="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>
--[[ Set wingPos ]]--
if wingPos == nil then
wingPos = "retracted"
end -- if
-- No Argument
if "%1" == "" then
Note("Your wings are currently ", wingPos, ".")
--[[ Extend Wings ]]--
elseif "%1" == " out" then
if wingPos == "extended" then
Note("Your wings are already extended!")
else
Send("demonset wings wings covered by a coat of silvery feathers. Though they only take up about three quarters of her back, it is obviously unnatural for a Human to have such")
if "%2" == "" then
Send("emote closes her eyes and tenses slightly. Leaning forward, her body trembles slightly, and two small wings emerge from her back.")
else
Send("emote%2")
end -- if
end -- if
--[[ Retract Wings ]]--
else
if wingPos == "retracted" then
Note("You wings are already retracted!")
else
Send("demonset wings retracted and well-hidden")
if "%2" == "" then
Send("emote clenches her back, bending forward. After a few seconds, her wings begin to fold and retract. A few seconds later, they are completely hidden.")
else
Send("emote%2")
end -- if
end -- if
end -- if</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
</muclient>
Thanks for the help!
P.S. I know I don't need to write 1-line comments how I did it, but I just think it looks more symmetrical this way xD
Edit:
I just noticed, that it didn't indent with the [code][/code] tags even though it was indented correctly in the message box. Did I do something wrong? | Top |

| You started with [/code] not [code] - I fixed it. |

| You need to rework your regular expression. I added this line:
It always showed "%1 = ''" even if I typed: wings out
See, with this:
^wings(| in| out)(| .*?)$
Your first alternative is to match nothing, which it does, and then moves on to take a space and the rest of the line.
Try this:
^wings( in| out|)(| .*?)$
A neater way might be:
That is, zero or one instances of " in" or " out". |
