| Hi,
I'm totally new to scripting, looking at making a very simple script to get started, really appreciate any help that I can get :)
1. I want to have a variable called healpot.
2. I need an alias which can take in a variable and store it, something like 'healpot <the name of the pot here>' so I can change the type of pot I will be using as I progress in levels.
3. Finally I need an alias 'heal' which will send 'quaff <the current healing pot I've assigned to the healpot variable>'
I saw some examples on the forums but I'm finding difficulty in understanding how things work..
Here is what I did:
1. I created a variable in MUSH called healpot, and set its value to "critical healing potion".
2. Then I go to aliases and make an alias called 'heal' I typed in 'quaff @healpot' in the big 'Send' textbox.
So what happened was it didnt recognise @healpot as a variable. When I typed 'heal', it thinks I want to quaff a potion called @healpot.
Again, any help is very much appreciated, or if anyone could just direct me to read up on something similar, would be great!
Thank you! | | Top |

| Sounds like you are on the right track. It helps to answer why a variable wasn't expanded to see the actual aliases.
 |
For advice on how to copy aliases, timers or triggers from within MUSHclient, and paste them into a forum message, please see Copying XML.

My video describing a targeting alias describes something very similar (you set up a target with one alias, and use it in another):
