Mudlet scripts and triggers

Alignment description translation trigger

This will supplement the output of score and nscore with a percentage, so you're never going to check help alignment descriptions again.

Example score:

Create a trigger with the following regex:

^(?:\+ )*You feel (.+), .+, and .+\.(?: *\+)*$

Script:

-------------------------------------
--  RetroMUD alignment percentage trigger
--
--  Author: Securis
--  Version: 1.1
-------------------------------------
--
-- This trigger adds alignment percentage output to the `score` and `nscore` lines.
-- Use the following trigger pattern to catch both:
--   ^(?:\+ )*You feel (.+), .+, and .+\.(?: *\+)*$
--
-- If you wish, you can customize the colours used below:
local ALIGNMENT_COLORS = {
  evil         = "<red>",
  neutral_evil = "<orange>",
  true_neutral = "<yellow>",
  neutral_good = "<cyan>",
  good         = "<green>",
}
