Bored...anyone need a script written?

[Velfi]

This should do what you want it to do:

I know at the very least it counts each box once, that's good enough right?

See?

The function of it is perfect, but its math didn't seem quite right when I just tried it:

[Golden Helm, Hearth Room - 12506]
An immense circular hearth fills the center of the room. A roast sizzles on a spit over the fire. The juices drip into the coals, popping and hissing as they land. Sturdy oak tables are set throughout, surrounded by chairs wide enough for the most ample of patrons. A pleasant breeze drifts through the open windows set high in the whitewashed wood-and-stone walls. You also see a plain gold strongbox, an enruned iron strongbox, a plain mithril strongbox, someone's disk, an acid-pitted brass trunk, a corroded mithril strongbox, a dented mithril coffer, an iron-bound maoral strongbox, a weathered wooden strongbox, an enruned gold coffer, an enruned mithril coffer, an enruned monir chest, an enruned steel box, an acid-pitted mithril box, a sturdy fel box, an enruned modwir box, a scratched steel box, a badly damaged modwir box, a disheveled calico cat, a sad ocean spirit that is flying around and a wood and glaes door.

Several of the x2's were x1's and vice versa, a couple of them showed as just x when they were multiples. In particular, the fel box/modwir box one, the mithril coffer and steel box ones, and the x2 of the maoral strongbox.

It would probably be easier if I just had a list of all possible types of boxes; mithril, gold, iron, blah blah blah.

Brass, steel, iron, silver, gold, mithril, maoral, modwir, wooden, fel, monir ... I think that's all of the materials

Chest, coffer, box, strongbox, trunk .. are all the box types

Okay okay, this one should work for reals now.

box_name = Array.new
box_count = Hash.new
GameObj.loot.each{|i|
	if i.type == 'box'
		if i.name =~ /((brass|steel|iron|silver|gold|mithril|maoral|modwir|wooden|fel|monir|haon|tanik|thanot) (box|strongbox|chest|coffer|trunk))/i
			name = $1
			(box_name.push(name) unless box_name.include? (name);box_count[name] += 1)
		end
	end
}
box_name.each{|box|respond "#{box} x#{box_count[box]}"} if box_name != nil

I also added haon, if you notice any other box types missing just add them to the list in the same format as they are already in.

I knew I was forgetting something. I'll try it again when I have another room of boxes. Thanks a bunch!

[Latrinsorm]

Tanik too. Some picker used to exclaim "a ti-tanik chest!" whenever he opened a tanik coffer. I don't know what he said when he got a chest.

[Tillmen]

Also thanot. That should be it.

[Velfi]

Thanks for the other ones I forgot, hehe.

I just tried it again, albeit with a few less boxes, and the math seemed good but I still have a blank x for some reason.

There was one modwir chest, but it just has an x for whatever reason.

Another wishlist script just occurred to me... One to squelch OOC whispers in the game window and punt them to the familiar, room, or other window -- I like making LOTR jokes during throwing-mysterious-artifacts-into-volcano events as much as the next guy, but sometimes I get completely derailed and lose track of what is going on around me...

fam_window_begin = "<pushStream id=\"familiar\" ifClosedStyle=\"watching\"/>"
fam_window_end   = "<popStream/>\r\n"

punt = proc { |ooc_string|
	if ooc_string =~ /\(OOC\)/i
		(puts("#{fam_window_begin}#{ooc_string}\r\n#{fam_window_end}"))
		ooc_string = " "
	else
		ooc_string
	end
}
DownstreamHook.add('script_name', punt)

Something that can close my axe, run one of the sloots, then open my axe after sloot finishes so I'm not swinging with one axe instead of two. I could use the stow function of sloot, but I would prefer for safety's sake to close the axe instead of keeping it separated when it's not in hand.

>open axe
Holding your axe with both hands, you press a small button near your thumb and separate the weapon into two halves.
>close axe
Holding the two halves of your axe in each hand, you carefully recombine the two halves of your weapon into one.
