Nexus Anti-Theft Help

Archailist

So, I'm required to learn anti-theft ways for a house task, and I was wondering if there was a way to create a cancel out sort of command. Like.... I want to have a reflex where my gold is automatically placed back into my pack UNLESS I've given a command to stop that reflex until I give it another command to activate it again.

I was thinking like a command, "gold lock", which will keep putting my gold back into my pack even if I want it out, and to be able to pull it out is if I enter "gold unlock"....... Any way to do something like that in the Nexus client?

I'm really not good at explaining things, so sorry if you have no idea what I am saying

there -should- be a code to turn specific triggers on and off with an alias, but for the life of me I can't remember it (haven't used nexus in ages)

what you can do, is have a letter or satchel or whatever in your pack, have your gold in that container, trigger putting that container back in your pack, and make an alias that does 

get <container> from pack / get <variable> gold from <container> / put <container> in pack

that's a simple way of doing it that you occasionally see

Say you have this trigger:

^You get (\d+) gold sovereigns from a canvas backpack\.$

PUT MONEY IN PACK####

You can use the Command Stack Delimiter (which is | (pipeline) by default, but you can change this in Settings > Advanced tab) to do GET MONEY FROM PACK|BUY SHIRT. 

This will make it do both actions one after the other, and they will execute before the trigger comes into effect (so you can buy your shirt and it will automatically put your money away when you're done).

That's the simplest way to achieve what you're looking for, so you can keep your trigger as is without disabling it and forgetting about it.

The other option (more drastic) is to click the thunderbolt icon in the bottom right corner to toggle all scripts on or off manually.

If you want to stay with your idea, you should make a trigger on the removal message that puts your gold away again. Give that one a sensible name like "keep gold stowed".
Then you create an alias for the "gold lock". As an action type, you add a script. into the script you put

var goldStowedTrigger = client.reflex_find_by_name("trigger", "keep gold stowed");
client.reflex_disable(goldStowedTrigger);

Then you create an alias for the "gold unlock". Again a script action with the following content:

var goldStowedTrigger = client.reflex_find_by_name("trigger", "keep gold stowed");
client.reflex_disable(goldStowedTrigger);

EDIT: typos, doh!

Hrm, my edit time is up, but I just noticed it should be "client.reflex_enable(goldStowedTrigger)" in the first code box...

I answered a nearly identical question here.

It uses a control variable rather than enabling/disabling triggers, but it ends up doing exactly the same thing.
