1. General Introduction to Modern MUD Clients
1.1 Mudlets automation features
Mudlet offers a vast array of standard features to automate or otherwise improve your gaming experience. These include, but are not limited to:
- Aliases
- User-defined text input, which is converted into a different, usually longer input before being sent to the MUD.
- e.g.
gg
sends the full command to the MUDget gold from ground;put gold in bag
- Keybindings
- also known as hotkeys, allow executing certain user-defined commands by simultaneously pressing a specific combination of keys
- e.g. CTRL+H → send say Hello Miyuki! to the MUD or plays La Marseillaise
- Triggers
- execute user-defined commands upon receiving specific out from the MUD,
- e.g. MUD sends You see Elyssa standing here. → send poke Elyssa to the MUD.
- Timers
- delay the execution of a command or execute it after a specified period of time
- e.g. throw gauntlet to Eric-wait 3 seconds-exclaim Let us end this here!
- Variables
- allow the user to store text or numbers for easier use inside scripts.
- Events
- allow the user to make triggers for specific events like when Mudlet has connected to the MUD, or even user-defined events to use in complex system making.
