CMud Threnody Counter

This counter will count how many people are in a Threnody ritual when you join it, and will increment every time another Lord joins in. Requires a window to display the values of the variables "thren_count" and "lblthren". (I use my Status window).

How to Use It

The script does all the work, no aliases or commands necessary.

The Script

Save the following code as an .xml file, and import it into Cmud:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
  <class name="Lord_Events">
    <trigger priority="2080">
      <pattern>~[LORD INFO~]: %w finishes Threnody, moving corpse of %w to safety.</pattern>
      <value>thren_count = ""
lblthren = ""
#echo -- Threnody ritual complete --
</value>
    </trigger>
    <trigger priority="2090">
      <pattern>~[LORD INFO~]: %w initiates a Threnody dirge for corpse of (%w) in*</pattern>
      <value>lblthren = "Threnody Starting"
#echo -- Threnody ritual starting --</value>
    </trigger>
    <trigger priority="2100">
      <pattern>You feel * power mingle with yours as * joins the ritual!</pattern>
      <value>#MATH thren_count (@thren_count+1)</value>
    </trigger>
    <trigger priority="2110">
      <pattern>You join (*) in performing the threnody ritual!</pattern>
      <value>thren_count = %eval(%numwords(%1, " and ")+1)
lblthren = "Threnody Count: "</value>
      <notes>Not Working right now.</notes>
    </trigger>
    <var name="thren_count" type="Integer"/>
    <trigger priority="2140">
      <pattern>You begin a dirge for corpse of *...</pattern>
      <value>#var thren_count 1
#var lblthren "Threnody Count: "</value>
    </trigger>
    <var name="lblthren" type="Literal"/>
  </class>
</cmud>

Designer comments

You can also add an #ECHO line after each of the triggers to report the current counter to the screen, rather than a Window if you prefer.
