| I was wondering if someone could help me figure this out. I want to set a timer based on an output to the screen. For example: You have successfully casted foospell!
From there I want to time 3 minutes so I know when I can cast foospell again.
Is this something that is possible?
Thank you!

| Right now you can do that with a bit of scripting. The basic idea is to make a trigger that matches on what comes from the MUD, eg.
You have successfully casted *!
(The "*" is a wildcard matching anything).
The trigger could call a script, the script could make a timer (using AddTimer) to go off in 3 minutes, and when the timer fires it can send something to the MUD (eg. a note to yourself), or call a script itself which does this:
world.note "Spell has worn off"
However, version 3.18 of MUSHclient which should be available in a week or so will have simplified methods of doing the above, which will reduce the need for scripting. |
