Timbo Slice's The House Fell Down and Broke It's Crown v1.00

[Dixie Wrecked]

When you're camping an IDOC, do you have to multi-task to avoid falling asleep at the computer?  I know I did, so I wrote this little alarm, which will keep you hidden while waiting for the house to fall, then when the house falls, it sounds an alarm to alert you to start grabbing the loot.  There is no real set-up for this script, just start teh script, target the house sign, and wait for the house to fall.  Once the alarm has sounded, press the 'q' key to stop it, although this sometimes requires multiple presses to work.  Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions and thank you in advance for testing!

Shouldn't it be called "Timbo Slice's Sleeping on the Job"?

Nope, that would be the other script - this one would be Timbo Slice's ADD IDOC enabler, since I am helping all of those with ADD to be able to withstand the pressures normally caused by doing nothing while waiting for a house to fall!!!

Heh!  Classic, like it!

I'll run this side by side with the other IDOC script to test it out here in the next couple days.  I've been seriously slacking in my hunting duties.  Running around looking for houses is almost as fun as waiting there for one to fall.

Thanks - I hope to hear some feedback, even if everything works as intended (which has been my experience!).  I was slacking in my IDOCing until recently, but a couple nice hauls (2 tinker legs, 3 of those big demon statues, some rares, hundreds of essences, hundreds of arties, lots of tokens, etc) have given be an itch to really get out there, so I've been using TrailMyx's script to find more of them, so I've really been needing to use these scripts (especially when 2 castles, 1 keep, and a luna house all fell the same day, so I had 3 chars logged at different houses with the timer and a 4th waiting at what I thought was the first to fall so I could try looting at them all!).

I found a few idocs so I'll test them within a week.

I must set my own sound ? or is from the system ?

The sound it plays is just a default sound. To hear what it sounds like, you can try this script, which will play it 10 times in a row (it's a very short sound):

Code: [Select]

for %i 1 10
  sound
halt

This is not enough for me!

maybe i can use something like this? :

playsound:
execute D:\Rock.mp3
set %wait #random % 10 5
wait %wait
onhotkey q
  halt
goto playsound

Love this script works like a charm.. Wife doesn't seem to like it as much as I do, something about the 2am ding dings I guess

Hi Dixie, Is there a way to change this script to beep when it turns to idoc from greatly worn? Most Idoc's are early mornings for me 3am-ish so getting the time it goes from greatly to idoc lets me set the alarm so I can get a lil sleep

Thanks, Krib.

Hi Krib.  I'm glad you've found this script useful! I am trying to find it, but I thought I had posted my idoc timing script, which pretty much does what you want, but rather than sounding an alarm, it pops up a window display the time it went idoc.  I might not have posted it though, and I lost all of my scripts when my computer crashed, so I'll have to see about recreating it if not (I actually stopped playing UO a couple months ago due to RL, but I still plan to maintain my scripts on here, as needed)....

Awesome thats just what I was looking for. Thats to bad about the crash and I totally understand the rl thing. If you do find the time in rl to put it together I'll be right here waiting I've been peeking in the learn to script pages for a long time now but always close them quick cause it makes my head hurt a lil heh. but how cool would it be to wright your own. yup I'm going back in lol.
Thanks Dixie.
