I am trying to have one trigger (when matched), send a command to mud (move east, eg) and enable 2 other triggers (and possibly disable itself though I could add the disabling in the subsequent trigger easily).

Is there a command I can put into the Trigger 'Send' box that simply enables (or disables) another trigger (without specifying a true/false). If so, what is it? And if so, where do I set the 'Send to' dropdown assuming I want to send a command to the mud (moving) in addition to enabling 2 triggers and disabling the current one?

I am positive this can all be done by an efficient script, but I am still learning scripting (slowly), and in the meantime, if there is a simple command that enables a separate trigger (no questions asked) then my needs will be met.

I have a bunch of named Triggers made, just curious as to how one can simply Enable/Disable them (by name) inside another trigger. Something like EnableTrigger(triggername)? Though I know this doesn't do it.

EnableTrigger

The documentation for the EnableTrigger script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.

You need "send to script". Once you are scripting you can do lots of things. For example:


EnableTrigger("triggerb", true)   -- enable another trigger 
EnableTrigger("triggerc", true)   -- and yet another
EnableTrigger("triggera", false)   -- disable myself
Send ("east")   -- send to MUD
Send ("open door")  -- send something else

Make sure you give the triggers names (labels).

Also if you have a "bunch" you can instead put the into a group (put a name in the group field) and then enable the whole lot at once (or disable it).

EnableTriggerGroup

The documentation for the EnableTriggerGroup script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.
