Hello, Akanbarians,
This update to setwidth happened probably a month ago.
SETWIDTH 3000 can now be used to avoid almost all multiline cases.
Setwidth explained:
Akanbar has a default cut-off of 80 characters per line.
This means that the sentence: "Chelsea lightly tugs on an iron rod, bringing the baited hook closer to herself." is displayed
on Akanbar and in your logs as a multiline:
"Chelsea lightly tugs on an iron rod, bringing the baited hook closer to
herself"
Instead of as one line.
This example continues for other, much longer lines as well.
This means that you must set up multiline triggers if you want to have any triggers that react to information displayed
on Akanbar's default SETWIDTH. Multiline triggers are a little complicated to set up.
To avoid interacting with multiline information, you could use SETWIDTH 3000.
This would only create a new line when more than 3000 characters have been entered on one line
(something that does not often happen in Akanbar).
IMPORTANT:
SETWIDTH is not a setting that carries over to a new session. You will have to trigger it to be entered on
each new session in Akanbar.
I've set my opening trigger to respond to "Welcome to Akanbar, Skia"
I use Mudlet so in response to "Welcome to Akanbar, Skia" my trigger sends:
send("SETWIDTH 3000")
send("WHO"), etc
