Fixing my rescue trigger

Postby Teralyn » Tue Dec 13, 2005 3:47 am

Ever since they changed the group display, my rescue trigger fires every time I look at it. Is there any way to fix it besides redoing the whole thing?

Group information for Mura and Company
Size: 5
Unsplit Coins: 0 platinum 0 gold 0 silver 0 copper
(Head) 108/110 move 807/877 hit - Mura
- Teulausasheanial
125/127 move 513/485 hit - Reseina
rescue Reseina
120/122 move 480/480 hit - Telaerin
rescue Telaerin
118/120 move 265/265 hit - Ihali
rescue Ihali

So this is what happens whenever I look at the group info. It's really annoying. How do I fix this?

Look to ensure that your rescuee's name immediately follows the hit message in your trigger. It's firing because your client is parsing hit and targetname while ignoring the - in the middle.

Some more concise hit messages and tightening up on the syntax of your trigger string should solve this problem :)

Instead of hit* %whateveryourrescuevariableis, try using just plain old "hits". :)

Feel free to check out my rescue script in this forum if you want to copy/paste some of the lines or get an idea.
