confused

[amolol]

my alias command is

gate (%W)

the pattern is

say i am opening a portal to the plane of %1

c 'gate' %1


this is the response i get


< 624h/624H 175p/175P 107v/107V >
< P: std > gate smoke
Pardon?

You'd have to have it set that gate = c 'gate'

[Lilira]

It is Jen..

Amolo.. try changing the (%w) to %1. For some reason the newer version of Zmud can be weird about %w. I had to change some of my stuff when I upgraded.

[sotana]

Try just

gate

as your alias pattern (no wildcard), keeping the value the same. Then to use it, you would type 'gate smoke' or whatever plane you want. I do this for moonwell. The alias is simply 'well' with no wildcard so 'well Sotana' will c 'moonwell' Sotana cuz everyone knows that the best lazy moonwells don't even leave the room you're in.

I must be horribly lazy :(

#al (smoke}{cast 'gate' smoke}
#al {ast}{cast 'gate' astral}
#al {fire}{cast 'gate' fire}
#al {air}{cast 'gate' air}

Amolol:

Alias:

gate

Command:

say Gating %1
c 'gate' %1

Don't use %W. Use %w. See if that helps.

It is an alias. You only have patterns in triggers.

#AL gate {say casting gate to %1;cast 'gate' %1}
