Triggers are settings created by you to automatically send commands back to the game when you receive specific text from the game. For example, you may want to automatically attack a rat whenever you see one enter the room you are in.

Step 3. Options for Triggers.

There are two main parts of a trigger. First, you need to match the text you wish to trigger from. Second, you need to create the action that will happen when the text is matched.

Matching Options

Trigger Text: In this field you put the text you want to match. Examples: 1. You have recovered balance. 2. You have recovered 3. recovered balance. 4. You have recovered balance.

Trigger Name: (Optional) The name of the trigger. The name is an identifier that will show up in your list of triggers. It is not required for your trigger and have nothing to do with it operation.

Matching Type: There are four options.

  • Contains: This will match any line that has your trigger text in it.
  • Begins with: Will only match a line that starts with your trigger text in it.
  • Exact match: Will only match a line that matches exactly like your trigger text.
  • Regular expression: This will match any regular expression patterns. This is advanced, but good to learn.

Whole Words Only: If this box is checked, the trigger will only check whole words. For example:

Case Sensitive: The case has to be the same when matching a trigger. For example, if this box is checked and your trigger text is 'You have recovered balance' then the text 'You HAVE reCOvered balance' will not match. However, if you uncheck the this option, the case will not matter.


Action Options

Examples

Balance Recovery Attack: This is an example of a trigger to automatically attack a target when you recover balance.
