Heya, today I figured I might as well show you all the way I try to make touring and interviewing a bit easier

I have a stream deck even though I don’t stream and I mainly use it for these kind of things.

This is a folder on my stream deck called clan utilities, here I set buttons to help with tours and interviews if needed

When you press the interview button you will see this, if you press one of the buttons it will echo that question in red for a guideline if you were ever to forget the question.

When you click the tour button you get a counter of how many tours you’ve given, Wolfpac’s tour and my tour.

This is Wolfpac’s tour, when a button is pressed it types the text you see on the buttons which then triggers my aliases. I mainly use this method to keep track of which rooms I already did. The three dots access the rest of the tour.

This is my tour itself (It’s based on Wolfpac’s one with some differences in writing and color plus a gimmick.)

This is my optional tour part (It consists of the less important room I give the player the option to explore for themselves or be toured there anyway. It’s some sort of gimmick to keep things fresh I suppose.)

This is how it looks when I press a button, it turns red. when I press it again it turns green and plays a little bell chime.

I have constructed a few aliases/triggers to help boot staff manage the tasks of new member recruitment. Below I have listed the text to be pasted into mushclient. For each trigger or alias just make sure they are ‘sent to script’. Also don’t paste ‘send =’ that is to designate what gets pasted into send

Clan tours

I have taken some clan tour language from others (mostly Wolfpac) and made a simple alias to use for clan tours. I simply type ‘clantour’ in any room in the clan hall and it will post the information to ‘say’. I generally always move west from headquarters first, then to the donation room, voting room, two storage closets, infirmary, morgue and finally to the roof to finish the tour. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me online.

Alias:

match = clantour

send = clan_tour_output = {
[47195]=”say @WThis is @RBoot Camp Headquarters@W: It is your @cNew Recall location@W. The @YGeneral @Wis our@Y Quest & Campaign @WOfficer, you can @Crequest @Wboth here.

Interviews

These are the questions from the Boot site which I had made into an alias for easy recall. I use the syntax ‘itv #’ to send the questions 1 through 9 to reply as I need.

Alias:

match = itv *

send = interview = {
[1]=”Why are you interested in Boot?”,
[2]=”How did you find Aardwolf? Have you played here before or first time?”,
[3]=”Have you completed the academy goal?”,
[4]=”Do you have any alts in other clans?”,
[5]=”Have you read the mud rules and do you have any problems with following them?”,
[6]=”Once inducted you will be representing Boot as well as yourself. Will you have any problems doing so in a respectful manner?”,
[7]=”Clantalk can be R rated or worse at times will that be a problem for you?”,
[8]=”Well that is all the questions I have. Do you have any questions for me?”,
[9]=”I will recommend you to clan leadership and hopefully they will be in contact with you soon about joining.”
}

if (interview[tonumber(%1)] == nil) then
Note(“That is not a valid Question”)
else
Send(“reply “..interview[tonumber(%1)])
end

Check who is online

This is a trigger to grab the current Boottrack list of names and an alias to send those names to ‘whois’ which tells you if they are online. To use the trigger to capture names use ‘clantalk boottrack update’ whenever Roume is active online. He will tell you the list of names and the trigger with record them to a variable to be recalled when you need. The command ‘wi bootlist’ will check if any new recruits are online.

Trigger:

match = * tells you ‘Current Boot applicants are: *’

send = local s = “%2”
Bootlist = {}
require ‘serialize’

for x in string.gmatch(s, “[A-Za-z]+”) do
Note(“Adding “..x..” to Bootlist”)
Bootlist[#Bootlist+1] = x
end

SetVariable(“Bootlist”, serialize.save_simple(Bootlist))

Alias:

match = wi *

send = local Bootlist = loadstring(“return ” .. GetVariable(“Bootlist”))()

if (“%1” == “bootlist”) then
for _,v in ipairs(Bootlist) do Send(“whois ” .. v) end
else Send(“whois %1”)
end
