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
