move: no recognized response

[onurb]

I been using lich to run some of my old scripts I created back when wizardFE was a thing. occasionally I get a response from lich like this...

[myscript: move: no recognized response in 10 seconds. giving up.]

it seems to be some kind of automated thing lich does. is there a way to turn this off? like if my script cant walk in a certain direction that it wants to, I prefer it to just stop right there than for this automated thing to happen.

Are you using ;go2 or move in your script?

[onurb]

no

[onurb]

I mean, no to ;go2 but yes there is a move command in the script that is triggering lich to do that thing.

What exactly is the move command you have it running?

[Tgo01]

You could do something like this if you want the script to exit if it can't move in the direction you want it to:

direction_needed = "north"
if checkpaths.include?("#{direction_needed}")
	move "#{direction_needed}"
else
	exit
end

And replace "north" with whatever you want.

I just thought there may be a setting to turn that feature off. I get that its trying to be helpful but in my case it's not.

That's just what move does. You can just do:

fput "west"

Or do:

move "west" if checkpaths.include?("west")

[Methais]

Is it trying to move to a specific place? Or is it just walking around, similar to ;wander and ;walk?

You could put a "put ;go2 <room number>" in the Wizard script if the former, or "put ;walk/;wander" if the latter.
