Macro Questions - RunUO

RaspenJho · 09-09-2004, 08:30 AM

Is there anywhere I can find detailed documentation about the macro section of razor? Specifically, I am looking for some of the following features:

1) Wait for any number of text strings in the sysmessages.
2) Play a sound (*.WAV) within a razor macro.
3) Do/While Loop constructs

Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks

1 is pretty easy, just right click and insert an if statement.

There is no support for 2, and I doubt there ever will be.

There is no support for 3, and I KNOW there NEVER will be.

An IF statement is not exactly what I was asking about. The IF will evaluate the contents of the journal at this point in time, and allow code execution to continute either within the IF condition, or the ELSE condition, or, with the lack of an ELSE condition, continue with the line following the END IF.

A wait for statement would wait for given text to appear in the journal before returning, or return after a specified timeout value. I was hoping for something like this:

/* string WaitFor( string[] patterns, int timeout ) { ... } */

strMatch = WaitFor( {"You pull out an item", "don't seem to be biting", "fail to catch" }, 10500)

With strMatch containing the text that matched, or String.Empty in the case of a timeout.

How about allowing regexp patterns for comparing those strings?

if syslog contains "You pull out an item|don't seem to be biting|fail to catch"
