Wildcards in /updatelevel

xManiamaNx · #1 02-19-2004, 10:12 PM

I'd personally like to see wildcards allowed in the /updatelevel command.

Then rather having to do:
/updatelevel blah.nw
/updatelevel blah1.nw
/updatelevel blah2.nw
etc..

you could just do /updatelevel blah*.nw

Would be handy, especially when updating npcs in a class that are in many levels.

Yes, that would be a good idea, but you wouldn't need the .nw. This would be nice to see in some scripting aspects, too, in my opinion.

I seem to recall doing exactly that in RC.

I always thought there was a wildcard for updatelevel...

/updatelevel seems to let you "update" ANY string you give it. While it may say "Person updated level(s) level*.nw", it doesn't actually do it... at least not in my tests on Classic and Classic Dev.

Tested that on Maloria too, doesn't update the levels though.
I tried /updatelevel exotic cheese
"xManiamaNx updated level(s) of exotic cheese"
of course, there is no such level so it couldn't update it.
