Ickmund and Thuvia, for making their practice trainers available (at and respectively)Īrston, for providing the "friend" aliases and other misc. Saal and Groderick, for making available their own scripts (particularly a mapper) many years ago that got me started with Mudlet, and which form the backbone of much of the material present hereĭarth, for being my guinea pig and initially testing things years ago I'd like to give some thanks to the following people for their assistance/contributions/suggestions: Please read through the following information and instructions below carefully before proceeding, and follow the steps in order, in order (hah!) to get started with a map and communications window. The purpose of this repository is to host a collection of files for playing the Wheel of Time Multi-User Dungeon, WoTMUD ( ), on Mudlet, and provide an easy method of downloading and installing these files from the Mudlet command line. If you learn JavaScript, you'll be able to quickly pick up LUA.WoTMUD triggers/aliases/scripts/timers/keys/buttons/maps If you learned Java, you will be able to learn C# very quickly. The dirty secret to programming is that all the complexity is usually conceptual and fairly language independent. If you're die-hard about learning LUA, you might find it helpful to learn a bit about a more well-documented scripting language (JavaScript or ActionScript for example) and THEN transition to writing LUA. I'm a programmer and I didn't find the LUA docs to be very helpful or enlightening, and there's really not many other good sources to learn it from. I've always found the hardest part of busting out spells was remembering the damn keywords anyhow.)=Īs far as LUA scripting, don't feel bad. It's not OMFG-WOW, but it'll cut your casting time dramatically and give you an edge. drunkendwarf 's #raid script was pretty inspiring stuff, to allow you to lock in a single keyword and short-cut your attacks to target that keyword.Īs a short term solution, you can alias something like "c sul fireball" to "cast 'sul un suk-krath viqrol hekro'" (or whatever it is) and then type "c sul fireball amos", and it will come out to "cast 'sul un suk-krath viqrol hekro' amos". Although, I will admit I really want to make some PVP oriented scripts to alleviate the rigors of "cast 'blah blah blah-blah blah blah' amos" or "shoot bow amos n", so maybe I should quit being lazy and dig in. Sometimes I need a few extra seconds to read something.
Plus, the fact that GGmud lacks a pause button, or the ability to hold the scroll bar still drives me NUTS. I personally use Gmud (1 G) because I can do most of what I want/need with aliases, macros and triggers. I'm willing to bet even the most senior amongst us would find something neat in such a list.ġ3:03:50 GMT -5 Najniaj said:Time for a preface: Post your favorite scripts (but do not dump a whole xml on the thread)! Looking around in the wealth of information on this site, it occurs to me that while large, complex examples are scattered around the threads, many a player without the higher-brain functions, time and motivation would benefit from a showcase of what small, short scripts experienced players use to make their lives easier, every day. most accomplished players out there make use of scripting in one form or other, often way beyond the simple concepts above. After all, aliases and other easy-to-reach integrated scripting options are very much available, even to players like me. The problem is, I have no idea what is it I do need to learn. Like how I have trouble understanding the basic lua documentation, how I have never scripted a line in my life and how I am not in the least interested in learning more than I need to. I'm not very bright, but very enthusiastic.īut not being bright gets in my way sometimes.
