Its returning last msg from all channels: server log, npcs, local chat, etc.., so in your case last msg probably will be msg from npc that you bought bless or not.

I am using this action in my house to see if it got twist, not after it died so thanks @borges but that action is not what I need.

And @Garkstal, it only get messages in server log, I thought of writing like:

if $lastmsg.content ~= .. 'Twist of Fate' then
gotolabel('twist')
end

But it gives me an error.

Type of messages.


-- Credits to Anonymickey, for testing the msg types
MSG_STATUS = 0 -- Status messages (In the screen).
MSG_DEFAULT = 1 -- Any player/npc message in Default channel.
MSG_WHISPER = 2 -- Any player whispering.
MSG_YELL = 3 -- Any player yelling.
MSG_NPC = 6 -- Any NPC answers in NPC channel.
MSG_PVT = 7 -- Private messages from other players.
MSG_CHANNEL = 8 -- Any player message in Game/Help/Real/Tutor/Trade channel.
MSG_RED = 16 -- Red alert messages.
MSG_RAID,MSG_ADVANCE = 17,17 -- Any white alert message.
MSG_WELCOME = 18 -- Game/Channel welcome messages.
MSG_STATUSLOG = 19 -- Status messages in Server Log.
MSG_INFO = 20 -- Green messages (like loot message) in Server Log.
MSG_SENT = 22 -- Private messages sent by you.

Will check all last 2000 messages.

foreach  message  m  do

   print(m) -- You can check the type, m.type,m.content.

end

New messages

foreach  newmessage  m  do

   print(m) -- You can check the type, m.type,m.content.

end

I don't own an Ornamented Ankh to test it. So, please post here what exactly appears on your server log after you use it. The WHOLE text.

@Tobbysch you're looking for $lastmsg.content:match('Twist of Fate'), but this returns true, what you want returns false, so you'll have to change the way you're doing to make it work.

When you use the ankh it returns all blessings' names and some other stuff, not only the last blessing name.

This one seems to work, but if char has full bless but not twist of fate it would not work, but I guess this works for me, barely bot with full bless anyways.


Thanks a lot @RoxZin xD !
