Looking for help with wildcards for triggers

Looking for help with wildcards for triggers

Postby Drule » Tue Sep 10, 2013 2:58 am

I've been trying to play around with lua in mudlet but I'm having trouble finding a good list of wildcards to use with triggers. Does anyone have a link to such a list or could someone set me up with a few basic ones?

I've seen people use things like (.*) and (/W+) etc but I'm not sure exactly what they're intended for.

Thanks in advance,
Nate

Here is a discussion of regex expressions:

Here is the mudlet faq:
http://wiki.mudlet.org/w/FAQ

And the manual:

I'm still terrible at it. I finally have some basic working scripts. I hope you get much better than me and post examples. I'm happy to post wutever examples I have upon request.

I've never even looked at it. That's a player thing.

and that's not a cop-out btw, I have a Lyme area to get in game and it's rather big.


...and I do still have your eq suggestions, will accept more via email

That's pretty neat! So it converts ??? to Lua and saves it as an .xml file?
