Achaea's Forums > Mush Class On/off Control

So I've painstakingly made a new alias that controls my classes that are on and off. Now, I use the userbar to show these so I must keep track of what's on. I also have special setups like tn all on, or tn bashing on, etc and tn all on doesn't turn on bashing.

This script may help newer users move to MUSH as some of the more advanced features are in it. This is written in Lua. I am no expert as I'm learning as I go. It isn't hard though.

CODE

if string.find ("Monk|Occultist|Occie|Runewarden|Runie|Shaman|Apostate|Monk|Jester|Bard|Druid
|Sylvan|Sentinel|All|Dragon|Bash|Bashing|Priest|Paladin|Magi", string.proper("%1")) and string.find("On|Off", string.proper("%2")) then

Inside my prompt trigger you'll find this for manipulating the userbar (that grey bar right below the text input):

CODE

    -- Userbar start:
    InfoClear()
    InfoColour("cyan")
    InfoBackground("black")
    Info("Target: " .. GetVariable("target") .. "    |    Classes Enabled: " .. string.gsub(GetVariable("classeson"), "|", ", "))
    -- Userbar end!

I know, I haven't commented at all in the alias code for class control but I just wrote it. Deal with it.

This could be much simplified if you kept a table of class -> skills pairs. For example:

CODE

classes = {
  monk = {"Kaido", "Tekura", "Telepathy"},
  occultist = {"Occultism", "Domination", "Tarot"},
  sentinel = {"Woodlore", "Metamorphosis"},
  sylvan = {"Elementalism", "Groves"},
  druid = {"Metamorphosis", "Groves"},

  -- et cetera
}

Then your alias would just be something like this:

CODE

for _,skill in ipairs(classes["%1"]) do
EnableGroup("xatk_" .. skill, ("%2" == "on"))
end

Any questions?

No questions. I really don't feel like rewriting that right now.

Yes and no. Doing it that way gave me pretty extended control especially regarding the new stuff I've added to it.

Honestly, I just see it as a rewrite of my python fuction 'class' in the script file, but with a longer if statement and written in LUA:P

I didn't really look at your Python. I suppose I should though. I couldn't deal with your 1500 triggers so I loaded up an old one I worked on and started from scratch. Almost done. Bard and Vodun is all I need in terms of triggers and to finish the defstrip coding is my last thing.
